the small spheres on the vertical spring supports were indicators of encumbrance. They had the width of the most protruding parts of the vehicle, to indicate to the driver whether he could go through narrow passages
Are used today also.
Absolutely right!!!
thats right! and I still remember when trucks had them when I was a boy :-)
You must be older than dirt lol, nah only kidding grandpa :)
Like a cat's whiskers!
Yep...started by Packard in the early days. They were indicators so you can see how wide but also they were used in trucking to tell weight when installed on the rear. It wasnt very reliable but it went like this:
A larger circle was painted on the wall of a grain barn or a post was put up with a ring on it. A stopper post was received slightly in the ground horizontally at a 90 deg angle. You pulled up to the loader and when the ball centered into the ring or circle they knew it was full when loading from the side or back if closed.
Packard saw this and used them on the trucks in front as a makeshift fender indicator. It's still used on some farms in the rear but everywhere in the front.
Another masterpiece. You make them look so easy to make and finish, but anyone who has ever built a model knows how hard it is to make a kit look as good as you do.
Truth. I love Plasmos 1/72 scale because I build these too, and its very hard to reach his level. I am still trying, and I been building models for 43 years. A true Master.
me to first model i was 10 now 55 !I try and try slowly getting as good as his big toe ,he is the God of models
I built my first model at 14 years old about... a week ago. I am getting a new one to work on soon, and I, by no means, have anywhere near as much experience as you guys, but I think I understand what mastery of the arts you need to create builds like this.
That wiper blade trick at the end was fantastic!!
The only thing about this series I don't like is that you don't have a new video for us everyday. So relaxing watching an artist at work.
So happy you started talking in your builds, makes it so much better. Thank you!
Hi plasmo I am a cardboard modeller
I have seen ever single vid of yours and I also tried to make the sdkpfz from cardboard this is a salute to an modeller to an modeler
I am not a model builder but how excited I get when a new video drop!😄😄😆😍
Since i found this page, I've watched every single one of your videos. Your work is truly remarkable. Also enjoyed looking at your models getting better and better and the dedication and patience you give to your craft.
Small kit, big details. You make it look so unchallenging. A joy to watch.
Very well done kit! Thumbs up! 👍 The long stick with the ball on the fender is called bumper guide. It’s a help to manoeuvre the vehicle.
David...as always, an inspiration. Even down to the empty creamer packs. I have enlisted my co-workers (who drink gallons of coffee) to give them a quick rinse and put them in a special cup on my desk. It won't be long before I have a year's supply.
I really didnt think I would like this kit but you have took a mundane uninteresting model and made it crazy and packed with details most people would never think to do. Thank you very much for sharing.
Ну ты брат- бог в своем деле,с удовольствием смотрю все твои видео, вообще слов нет ,ты супер профи, спасибо за удовольствие смотреть на твой труд,Прости что по-русски, английский язык не знаю
Your attention to detail is second to none, and the fact that you do these kits in 1/72 scale makes this even more remarkable. I'm honoured to be learning from a Master. 10 out of 10 !
I have not done 1/72 or 1/48 since I was a teenager... [Long Long Ago] Thiese videos of small scale Model Art is inspiring me to try these scales once again.
"... or painkillers." xD
it will never cease to amaze me how you'll take an already detailed kit and be like "ehhh, I can make it better." brilliant job, as always!
I am in love with that kit! If you even read this just know that your kind of talent is legendary. Every new video brings me to a new level of awe.
No matter how many of his videos I watch I’m still blown away at the level of skill patience and creativity! Simply amazing!!
I think the Purpose of the ball could be to give the driver awareness of where the front fenders are
It makes sense. Thanks for the info.
PLASMO - plastic models model looks as stunning as always of course
the balls show the driver if he can pass the gap with the vehicle. They are showing to him the width of the vehicle. The rear of the vehicle is widther the the front. If he fits into the gap with the front without toughing the balls with the obstacle, the whole vehicle will get tru. They can be aslo used as help while uploading the vehicle on the train or when you pass ponton bridge.
Špina, olejové škvrny, známky opotrebovanosti počas prevádzky v poľných podmienkach.... to je známka majstrovstva na všetkých Tvojich modeloch. Špičková práca a nie len ta tomto modely....🌲👍👍👍
Well done!Sd kfz had a variety of purpose not only cargoes but air defense guns or towing something such as 88 guns or ammunition boxes!
You never fail to satisfy me with so much detail
Hi David! You are simply from another planet!!! Enjoy your videos from Portugal! Abraço
Thanks a lot Plasmo, you inspired me for making models and now using your tricks and materials I am making my first model.
Fantastic out come of the Revell 8ton half track,David. References are important when trying to get realistic result. The scratch building tutorial of the tray was great. Making tiny handles,wow.
Superb video. And YOUR skill! I thought I could walk up, climb in and grab my gear then get in and drive away. On a 1/72 model. Amazing, simply amazing. I hope this never gets boring for you. What a collection you must have.
I love how you turn even the simplest kit into something really epic ! I'll keep training to reach your level !
I just found the channel. Wow. The little details! like windshield wipers.
Been binge watching your videos for a few days now, and you make me want to go on a shopping spree and get myself some equipment to start making and painting models. Used to do them with my dad as a kid, but not on this level.
Outstanding modelling David. The additional features you added to this simple kit are amazing 👍
Hey PLASMO- plastic models. This was a SUPER EXCELLENT BUILD! I liked and shared. I said this to my Twin Brother: This Guy is so talented and such a Pro at building models. I pick up a lot of tips, tricks, and I'm in AWE every time I watch his videos. Excellent Job. Enjoy (Thank you for sharing your time, talents, skills, tips, knowledge, SUPER Attention to detail, and Fun Creative Videos. Take car and have a great weekend.) :D
Every video of yours I watch, I learn some new techniques...thanks! Great build as always!!
I am here to learn how to do the rusted old look thanks for showing
I know this goes without saying but your skills as a modelist are the finest I have ever witnessed. If I may say sir, I believe your style is of the "Ultra Real". Most Excellent. Perfection. Your skills with panel lining and especially your Weathering Work is far better than any I've encountered. Every Piece I've seen makes me want to be able to paint at this level. Someday...
Dang! Your eye to detail and accomplishing it is insane. Well done !!
Great build! I admire your patience, especially with the tires.
the precision of your details is amazing .... congratulations
Amazing in 72 scale, nice job !
This vehicle looks more realistic as the real vehicle...my opinion is: i dont like that...but its only my opinion. Nice work!
Nice, great vision, I buy and build models and never have the vision to do the modifications that you think of, mine are usually straight from the box builds. You are a true artist.
I do so love to watch a Master Modeller at work and you sir are indeed a Master Modeller. Well done.
Wow I think this is one of your best modifacations yet
ineccepibile l'interpretazione più raffinata e dettagliata del vano di carico. Incredibile addirittura le maniglie per l'apertura del cofano o i canali anti sdrucciolo longitudinali sui pneumatici (anche se neanche nella vecchia 600 FIAT o su auto degli anni 60 di mio padre mi ricordo un tale accorgimento tecnico che venne molto più tardi) ma su una cosa mi sono bloccato: il vano di carico mezzano, quello solo per i materiali, hai fatto uno stupendo gabbiotto rialzato sacrificando tutto lo spazio sottostante. Ora non credo che la milizia tedesca rinunciava ad uno spazio facilmente accessibile abbassando solo le sponde laterali. Sarebbe stato un tocco geniale in più se si intravedevano anche sotto i materiali, questo avrebbe permesso di evitare d'infilare una cassa sotto i sedili dei soldati. Comunque un ottimo lavoro, anch'io patito del 1/72 e sulla perfezione non sono ancora ai tuoi livelli, anche se in un modello elicottero Boeing CH-46, ho disegnato sulla lunga pedana che non ti permette di vedere le impronte dei pneumatici dei mezzi imbarcati o le impronte degli uomini.
Best modeller on TH-cam. Love your attention to detail. Really takes it to a higher level.
Don't understand the dislike, it's an outstandig, awesome work !!!!!
This model is stunning. Really well done :) I really hope you'll do a locomotive one day. Seeing all of your detailing and weathering techniques on a loco would be amazing
Miss you Plasmo! Hope this long pause is only you on vacation or busy with something else. Can't wait for the next example of modelling genius! Stay well!
meisterhafte Arbeit👍 gefällt mir sehr gut🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Many would say 1/35 at first glance, but it´s a 1/72. What a great build.
Great job. You made a small 1/72 scale kit look like a 1/35 scale kit. Wonderful added detailing. Painting and weathering are absolutely marvelous.
Technically a perfect build, but aesthetically it lacks one crucial element. Adding a driver figure and/or passengers in the back would elevate the project even higher.
Happy modeling. Bill
Awesome, really impressed with your attention to details and dedication to this hobby.
Hi David , you are a talented modeller and your work is fantastic. Please keep up the videos, I like the step by step guides.
your finnished models are out of this world. so Amazing to watch the process.
Beautiful half-track, really love the paint job you did on the wood
Amazing as always David! It's pure pleasure to watch your videos!

That is one of my favourite yet, fantastic video and build, thanks for sharing.
Excellent scratch built and weathering effects. Congratulations
Always looking forward to your videos. I see a new upload and think, YES! a new Plasmo upload.
Thanks so much for your time and efforts in making this content for us all.
Your detailing is so great 👍🏻
You have amazing skills!. Respect mate
You are awesome, man! Really impressive 1:72 model. Always a pleasure to watch!
Absolutely incredible, thanks for uploading
Details, details, details... I love them. Great work!
Another amazing build, I love your work and you have inspired me to go into model building.
FANTASTIC, I LOVE TO WATCH YOU, YOU HAVE SO MUCH PATIENCE, THANK YOU FROM SOUTH AFRICA
Just love what you can do, and at 1/72, my favourite scale.
Love your videos. You make it all look so easy. Superb work.
I really loved the weathered wood effect on the back! Nice work!
Nice work! Statistic shows that you have more views when you build Planes. Keep up the good work.
The matchbox really shows how tiny this thing is. Amazing detail. Many years ago I used to try painting some of the Airfix 1/72 soldier kits - pretty much impossible, I found. I'd love to see something similar in a larger scale - but I understand they cost money, take up room, and take more time.
Windshield effect, just wow. Killer idea!
You ARE crazy, my friend, did you know that? I've never seen that kind of level of modelling. You do really make this all with such creativity and devotion, so all i can do is just admire it with pure honesty. Please keep on, i'm sure you will reach the highest tops. Greetings from Russia. Спасибо! (Thanks!)
Awesome as always looking forward to seeing your next build
It is my understanding that the small posts with the ball on top which were painted white (just the ball), served as a visual marker for the width of the vehicle while driving at night with blackout lights so that on coming vehicles could gauge the width of traffic approaching them. It was also done with painted white stripes on the widest point on the front, rear, and side corners. These often became so dirty, that they didn't really accomplish their intended purpose. Although never officially discarded, troops often ignored repainting these markings, especially after 1942.
unreal! thanks for the great work and videos David
Beautiful work
Great, great video. The scratch de tais are awesome! Thanks for sharing these technics with us. Nice replica.
Superb work beautiful modelling
Excellent work! Very well done!
The tiny orbs on the fenders gave the driver an idea on space perception of the vehicles further most corners. Much like the tall markers on the rear of a boat trailer so the captain would know exactly where the landing slip was on the trailer while submerged under water.
Hey. Its easier to cut wheel tread if you put razor saw on a sheet of styrene horizontally and turn the wheel. then add bit of styrene for another line. this way you have same spacing every time. You can use balsa trimmer tool for that. Anyway, amazing video as always.
love the window wiping effect. So goood!
Quite simply ... you are a modelling genius! 😲
Very nice job and unique trick for windshield grime, way to go!
Klasse Arbeit, Respekt! Sieht fantastisch aus!!!!
always a beautiful result! love your work!
I love your videos. I always learn something new!
