I tried the simulation of the so called "stressed skin" for the first time - and ran in some issues. I scratched to hard into the surface and the effect might be a bit too strong. Beside this I spent a lot of time in riveting the fuselage and wings. It was a great experience with this very beautiful kit from Airfix.
The metallic surfaces are simulated with several paints from alclad II and accentuated with metal powder from Uschi van der Rosten.
For detailing the engines and antennas I used material from Albion Alloys.
Regarding the music I tried something dramatically and experimentally irritating theme. Hopefully it's not too pathetic...

Right, that's it. I'm throwing away my modelling stuff and sticking to colouring books from now on.
No, don't do that - enjoy the modelling. For me it's some sort of therapy 😊
No my friend! Modeling is one of the reasons why I did not lose my mind in very bad first marriage. If they help with that, helps for anything!
I will one step behind...no need to work on models anymore....it's a real masterpiece.
Benedict Builds : I’ll join you. This was the final nail in the modelling coffin.
Tom Grigat : you should be banned from internet. I’ve considered myself being a good modeller... but now...my self esteem is at an all time low😊. But I do love your work, fantastic.
I can't even understand the level of patience to do this. Not only is crafting the model to this degree of detail time consuming, but making a stop motion animation video in the process and then editing said video with grade ''A'' quality??? Amazing! If I were wearing a hat, I'd tip it off to you good sir, well done!
I know, that's the thing that struck me the most! The sheer patience he exhibits!
Me, I damned near had a panic attack watching the video!
Flash Chrome i would do the same he is so patient
Couldn't agree more with your comments
Thanks a lot for your kind words 😊
I had one of those Revell models of a B-17g almost two decades ago. 147 parts. Tons of dedication. Tons of mess-ups and fixes.. and probably not even on level as the guy's video. Nearly a month and I was on the last steps of finishing it until I lost it all from an angry sister who took it and smashed it in rage.
If "Hollywood" would apply just half as much attention to detail and accuracy, films would be 200% improved.
@Alejandro Márquez Sure .. with virtual effest planes can flying like fighters in star wars...
That’s kinda of a lie look at the movie Apollo 13 it would’ve been more boring if the astronauts talked and acted the way the did
Gear Challenge unreal
Alejandro Márquez also fuck you this shit is hard to replicate
Yeah and then you'd complain why a movie ticket cost you $300. They can never win so quit expecting them too lol
I think the stressed skin effect is superb. Such beautiful work!
Agreed..
I have stressed skin but I am old!
That little tool to rivet the skin into place is amazing.
BEST B-17 i ever saw being built here or anywere! KUDOS! museum perfection!
Oh, thank you for these kind words...
Hi
Best videos! but also a good one is the one from Plasmo : th-cam.com/video/HnPIwu-ZitE/w-d-xo.html
fr_Jagdmeister REM WWII Channel plasmos was way better no offence
@@Simon-sv6qe Both are very accomplished, but to my eye the plasmos weathering is a bit over the top compared to the more subtle work shown here. The engine detail is superb as well. Just splitting hairs as both should be justifiably proud of their artistry.
Mesmerising to watch! Enjoyed this immensely
Good to hear 😊
Matt Lowne is here! The KSP dude I am subscribed to, here?
Hiii mattttt😊
Scott
Just was watching your vids then got this in my recommended, weird
First of all there is amazing editing, Second This guy added a lot of extra details to the weaponry, engines, control surfaces and also added realistic seam lines and rivets and Third he did this in stop motion which takes about 10 minutes for a few frames. this is the type of work the you never see now days. I cant say anything else except that this is amazing and best if not one of the best videos I have seen on TH-cam.
Thanks for your kind words 😊
For 23 years l worked full time restoring cars. Add at least 10 more part time. Still it's hard to comprehend the skill and patience required to accomplish this level of detail on that scale. For one thing my hands are no longer steady enough. I just found your channel today. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks - you're welcome 😊
WOW! I can't build a plane without getting glue on the canopy...
Use PVA glue for clear parts. It dries clear.
@@disceva6443 does it stick as good tho
@@Elbowbanditest2003 it sticks perfectly fine. Sometimes I don't even glue the canopy down so I can take it of to look at the interior.
@@disceva6443 OK I will see how it goes
I usually wind up with parts stuck to my forehead...
Wow.
This has to be the most creative model building video I've ever seen!
Thanks...
With my primitive skills I built the similar Academy 1/72 B17G late model with the chin turret. In the modelling world, Tom is a rivet counter. The level of patience to achieve this result is mind boggling. The desire for perfection is off the charts. I'd rate his skill as 15 out of 10!
Thank you very much - but, to be honest, I'm far from a rivet counter. My models have a lot of flaws and mistakes. I enjoy the process of modelling though...
There is no words to describe the talent you have on assembling the model and editing the video.
Thank you very much 😊
Magnificent job all around. The music, stop motion effect, painting and detailing techniques, absolutely stunning. Perfectly brilliant ending as well. Well done Sir!
I'm glad you like it - especially the ending ;-)
The paintjob looks absolutely dashing! This bomber is a total beauty.
I'm glad you like it...
Ah we have a british chap.
This is absolutely incredible, a work of art. You sir, are a legend. I can’t even fathom the patience and determination this must have taken.
Thank you very much
*looks at my very poor north Carolina bb-55 model and cries*
Look at my foker 189 and jump over the window
Look at the f14 i built.... u’ll be attempting to suicide after seeing that, luckaly my 1/48 b17F “memphis belle” flying forteress looks alot better then the tomcat....
Sadly looks at 1/144 B-47E with broken tail gun, dents, and half completed and cries, then glared at huge stack of models that haven't been started and terrible USS Missouri model
looks at my yamato
*loads gun*
looks at my IJN fleet
*starts removing life*
Speechless. Build flows seamlessly to the music. I would be most grateful for a short feature describing exactly how you went about the stressed skin and riveting as it seems to bring the final outcome into a glorious tribute to the real thing. I tried replaying those stressed segments, but still none the wiser! Keep up the excellent work.
OK, this is absolutely UNREASONABLE detail for a 1:72 scale model! Wow, amazing!
Ur gay
At one point I thought, “all he needs is a starter and some fuel... I’m sure that’s next.”
😂😂😂
The whole thing is nothing short of being a masterpiece, amazing museum quality work!
So well planned and executed 🎆
I'm pleased to hear 😊
This is like how b17 were handbuilt by giants back in the thay, and also colorized.
😂😂😂
@Tediuki Suzuki you can clearly see that hes Turkish
@Tediuki Suzuki I have never met an American with a name like Ozturk. Suffice to say, I don't think he is one probably.
This channel is actually underrated with the time and effort and quality put into these videos
*_Outstanding. What a masterpiece !!!_* 🔝👍🏻😉
One of the most Enjoyable Videos i have ever seen on TH-cam.
Perfect.
I'm pleased to hear 😊
I've told you before but this warrants another telling, fantastic!
It is an unadulterated joy to watch your videos and I freely confess to a childlike excitement when I received notification of this one!
I cannot express how much I admire your work and the time you must obviously put in to make these world class videos, we're all very lucky to have you.
My sincere thanks.
Thanks for your kind words 😊
Seriously,how do you have enough patience to stop-motion an entire building process
It's passion and addiction 😅
I've seen this like 20 times and still can't believe the level u are damn, nice to see people who build planes nice. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks a lot 😊
I don't know whats more impressive, the fluidity of the stop motion animation or the quality of the build, bravo.
Thanks 😊
About a decade ago an olive-drab B-17 flew over Hollywood in the course of a long and slow 180 for a landing (Santa Monica? Torrence?) from the west. It was so low I could read the letters and numbers. Simply: Sublime. This build? Same. A B-2 did a Hollywood fly-over about twenty years ago. The earth shook. The sun was blotted out from the sky. Still the B-17 rules the skies. Thank you, Tom.
Thanks - you're welcome 😊
Haha...I'll bet this took longer to complete from start to finish than the real thing! 😉 Outstanding.
Incredible. I'm in awe at the level of detail you had the patience to do. When I built a Spitfire airplane as a young man, I thought I was pushing the envelope by brushing in gun powder residue on the wings behind the guns, lol. Great video. The best I've ever seen.
Thank you 😊
John Malenkovic aren’t you a kid?
@@massimocrisologo4497 he has a pout on...lol
This is an Oscar winning performance in both modelling and build video production! I'm literally blown away tbh
Watching the parts crawl towards their intended housings was just so satisfying
Very nice build! Video production is beyond amazing. You're a madman to rivet the thing, and stressed panels!? Over the top! Thanks for sharing
I'm happy you like it 😊
なんて手間のかかる撮影を、！
素晴らしすぎる👏👏👏👏
I am in awe of your attention to detail - the rivet lines and even in the fuselage interior where no one can see. This is scale model building at another level.
Thank you very much 😊
Now I fully understand Jeff Beck's comment on seeing Jimi Hendrix for the first time:
"Well, I used to be a guitarist."
I just have one word for your job : Perfection
I made a 1/72 Airfix B17 when I was a kid in the early 1970's. Strangely, the end result didn't look like that.
How things change - for the better in this case.
Amazing job done! B-17 in 2020 still one of the most beautiful planes ever built, so simple in design but so elegant in shape and style.
Just as fascinating as the beautiful attention to detail, is exactly how you managed some of those stop-motion shots.....How you managed to undertake both art forms concurrently to such an incredible standard demonstrates a depth of patience I can only boggle at.
I don't build models, but I gotta say this video was incredible! The presentation, videowork, modeling skill, is really exceptional. Thank you for taking the time, and sharing this awesome project of yours! I Really enjoyed it.
I'm pleased to hear 😊
The video editing itself is amazing. Makes other building videos come from stone age
Such a beautiful plane. My Grandfather flew one in WW2, and he got to fly a restored one a few years before his death 7 years ago. Excellent plane and an excellent video
I just can’t get enough of these videos. I always picture myself building these as they go along but then I’ll stop, laugh and say “Yah Sure”.
I watch the entire video in absolute awe! Unbelievable. Thank you for the fantastic videos!
You're welcome
This was amazing. Bravo!
thanks...
Pure art. Just perfection on the screen. Beautiful, just plainly beautiful.
Absolutely unbelievable standard of craftsmanship here!! I'm also really pleased to see that Microscale are still around - I used to use their aircraft decals back in the 80s.
Thanks for your kind words and for the info regarding the TV show. I'll take a look.
Oh no my pet hamster joined the airforce.
you are so talented. this vifeo made my day. it made me feel happy. thank you!
This guy just brought modeling to a whole new level. Im a beginner and he just turned that intermediate lvl model into a lvl 6 (a notch higher than the highest lvl).
Because just building the model isn’t hard enough. That was amazing to watch.
I'm pleased to hear 😊
Also Tom ich bin ja eh schon von allen Deinen Arbeiten beeindruckt. Aber das hier topt alles!! Der Aufwand mit den Blechstößen hat sich echt gelohnt. Wie Du den Motor im Video zusammengesetzt hast, hat mir richtig gut gefallen. Die Idee mit den Geschützen muß ich mir unbedingt merken. Ich hoffe das werde ich auch, bis ich irgendwann mal meine B17 bauen werde ;-) Der Videoschnitt war mal wieder eine Augenweide. Und die Musik eine Ohrenweide ;-) Ich schaue es mir später noch mal an und lass dann den Ton über meine Sonos laufen. Meine Nachbarn wird's freuen :-D Alles in allem mal wieder ein wahres Kunstwerk!! Video wie auch Modell.
Das freut mich sehr, dass es Dir gefällt - die Blechstöße haben mir noch mal aufgezeigt, dass mir echt noch die Geduld fehlt. Da hätte ich tatsächlich noch ne Menge verschleifen müssen. Aber ich stürze mich halt gerne in die Aktion und lebe dann mit den Erkenntnissen...
The music is flawless🎻🎼
I'm glad it seems to work for the clip
How is the music called?
It's the egmont overture from Beethoven performed by Kevin MacLeod.
As a digital 3d modeller I always look at these in awe, there's so much that has to go into making a model irl
As a tribute to my father’s 56 missions as pilot in WW2, i made one of these. But I researched and fully detailed the interior and exterior. Thankfully dad told me of the markings and tail number of his favorite plane. I even flew on one here in Arizona. Every tube wire and knob is totally accurate in scale, location and color. I made tiny plaques with the names of each crewman at their positions. He never lost a crewman.
Additionally i illuminated the interior and all the exterior lights. But the crowning achievement was inserting small electric motors in the engine nacelles. The engine details are still visible. I cut the rudder(tail flap) and gave it just a bit of right rudder. Now it hangs from my grandsons ceiling and with a touch of the battery pack located in the bombay, flys slowly in three foot diameter circles. Congratulations Captain Sorenson, Lieutenant Shaller, Lieutenant Elrod, Lieutenant Sommers and the rest. My family will never forget you.

Sounds awesome
Utterly amazing!
Die B-17 G ist neben der B-29 eines meiner Lieblingsbomber. Ich komme aus einer Familie die Plastikbausätze zusammengebastelt hat und da war die B-17 immer ein Thema. Ich wollte aber nie ein Statik Modell und bin deshalb RC Modellbauer geworden.
You just earned yourself a subscriber. Good job on the model, the patience and detail are above and beyond!
I don't think, until this very moment, I realized what a magnificent machine the flying fortress was... Bravo!
I actually bought the set to make this and oh boy i see I’m in for a ride
Have fun with it - it's a great kit
Супер!!!отличная работа!!!
This video was absolutely incredible, I could not believe the precision and detail used to create this model. Music was calming and entertaining. Overall one of the best TH-cam videos I have ever seen
Thanks for your kind words 😊
Great idea with the gun barrels. You learn something new all the time

Read the description...
I wish my kits are this good. 😭
The level of detail here is absurd. Amazing job!
Had and made this kit when I was a kid (1970's). This takes it to a whole new level!
Just gave up modeling. I surrender.

Incredible, what you made out of this simple Airfix Kit! That's real art! Congrats Tom!
Thank you very much 😊
Very enjoyable.
Looks amazing
Millions of people sacrificed so much for our freedom today.
One man did 104 missions over Germany in these aircraft.

Superb modelling
I've managed to buy Airfix's B-17 on aftermarket recently. Now I am afraid even to look at the sprues after watching this video
The rigging job is just a masterpiece
Not only are your models exquisitely beautiful, the little stop-motion movies are too!
I love how the later B-17s look like hedgehogs with all the guns sticking out all over them, amazing work!
Well Met Tom! I have been an airplane modeler for decades, My model of the B-17 was destroyed when some punks broke into our house and trashed ALL of my models. M-60 Patton,, Stearman Biplane, USS Constitution ( fully rigged), Space 1999 Eagle, Bren Gun carrier, M1A2 Halftrack, and so much more...
The skill required alone to do this is amazing, but the patience and attention to literally every single little detail is absolutely astounding. I do believe we've found the modern day DaVinci.
Too much honor - but thanks 😊
Simply absolute, both the colouring and the build. The way it’s filmed is just... wow
I'm pleased to hear 😊
WOW!...no words. You have some serious talent, the build was amazing but then to edit and make a video clip like that......priceless! Model gods take notice
Loved building these when I was younger, never did possess the skills or the patience to be able to do the fine detail work like riveting and drilling turrets. This artist is very talented and does a fantastic job. Very impressive. CGI has gutted this craft for sure.
Thanks a lot for your kind words - ironically I work as a 3D-Designer 😅
This is the best build of this aircraft I have seen on TH-cam. We can only wish we were on your level.
Thank you very much 😊
Just wow. Fitting tribute to a plane and her crew that we owe so much
Outstanding! In every respect! The model! The film! Absolutely flawless!
I'm happy to hear
プラモデルの工作も素晴らしいが、撮影も素晴らしい。
見飽きない。
With your exceptional quality of cinematography and modelling abilities, spelling mistakes go totally unnoticed.
Thanks for your kind words 😊
Wow, from the amazing craftsmanship to the great editing. Simply amazing. The music even fit this project.
Thanks a lot
The combination of exceptional model making skills and stop motion photography is jaw dropping. A pure pleasure to watch. Well done.
Thanks for your kind words
82ND AIRBORNE
This is what I call ART!!
Thanks a lot 😊
A creative triumph, and that’s just the video! As for the model build itself - many thanks, it has given me lots of ideas for when I get to this one in my stash; although I am nowhere nearly as skilled as you are, it still inspired me to try!
Wow! My grandfather was in the 8th AirForce and flew the B-17 over Europe. He would have been amazed by your work.
I built a Ravell B-17 years ago of which I was very proud. It didn't look like this! Awesome job.
Spectacular! Jaw dropping! I am mesmerized by this video. You are incredibly talented, sir!
STUNNING...I have always thought that one complete side of the fuselage should be see thru so that we can see all the detail and work gone into the interior of these kits! BEAUTIFUL JOB GRATZ!
Thanks
I've watched a few of your builds now after stumbling across one (thank you, suggested videos). I thought the detail that goes into parts internal to the fuselage that would never be seen was amazing. Then....I saw your engines. Holy crap! It's like they just rolled off the assembly line, ready to run. Absolutely love the stressed skin, as well. Great videos! Got my sub, for sure.
Thanks for your kind words 😊
Insane amount of time and work to make this as a stop motion. I'd just as soon believe this is all CGI. Kudos to you!
I wished I had the data to make a cgi clip with the aircraft 😂😂😂
Maybe a tiny bit more complex than the Airfix models I used to build in my distant childhood :-) Just freakin unbelieveable! Not just the modelling skills, but the film production - and patience - too! Wow!
Thank you very much 😊
What a terrific final frame to an exceptionally executed video. Bravo!
Best build I have seen yet , fantastic animation , thank you.
The person who did the build in this video is an artist 💯% 👍🏻 soundtrack to match the build too
Thanks a lot 😊
Truly impressive! What patience, skill on many levels. Superb model making ability and, apparently, an accomplished stop-motion cinematographer as well!
Thanks a lot 😊
