Ever since I got to climb on and into a StuG a year ago it has been dear to me, now you made the shape of Jagdpanzer also into one of my favorite shaped panzers.
There was a pleasure to watched some of your videos from the recent years, when you were showing lots of home-made technics to improve the miniatures. It was a great inspiration for all young modellers. Now they might think that you will not make such a great model, as Plasmo did, without 3d printings and special tools. Well, that's life. I just wanted to share my opinion here.
I've been subscribed to you for years now, and you amaze me each and every time you release a video. Your models are incredible, and great editing too. Nice work once again
Thanks David, i dont think i have ever seen a model of yours that has not been modified and this one was no exception. Brilliant. Thank you again from South Africa
As someone who works on TV and movie sets I do a ton of aging and distressing on set pieces. Your model making calls to mind a lot of the techniques used in the industry. One thing you could take from the scenic toolkit is blocking, where you take block of wood or any box shaped scrap, dab it in paint and blot/scrape/drag it across a surface. You can get really natural looking aging this way. We use it a lot on door frames and other areas that would be high-touch high-traffic.
To apply a thin and clean putty like that, first roll the product on the non-stick backing sheet of sticker paper (the kind you use to make labels with a printer). Make it as thin as desired, rolling it between two equally sized sticks then use a blade to cut it to size. And for the final and most important part, roll it up using a baking sheet paper, so it doesn't stick to itself. Once you have the roll, unroll it onto the part you want to alter. Super old trick from the 80's, when we used to make more maquettes.
Fantastic model. You have a good eye for color, it was sometimes wasted potential when you went overscale with chipping and weathering but you seem to solved that problem! So imo a perfect model. Well done.
As always, an INCREDIBLE video. I had to Google it cause I was curious... But the "Zimmerit" texture being applied was a hard paste that was applied to German tanks to keep magnetic anti-tank mines from sticking to the armor.
@@METRO2033RUS You are halfway right. In addition to magnetic mines not being used. Zimmerit application stopped due to rumors it could catch fire when the tank was was hit. Later tests showed the zimmerit didn’t catch fire. Application never restarted because application took days and by late 1944 the Germans couldn’t afford to have tanks sitting in the factory.
Really beautifully done, thanks David. The Zimmerit tool though, I'm not sure, I prefer individual indentations, more like hand made with a spatula, not so straight and some flaking here and there.
You are able to make details in 1/72 that, in my opinion, I could never even come close to in 1/35. That came pattern is gorgeous, and the Zimmer even more so...
Wow, what a great job you have done! The result is absolutely fantastic. Now photograph in a very low position and a good area around the tank, it will be look like a real one. Kind regards
Sooooo I'm pretty sure you just invented a new way for kit designers to make tracks!! It can have the ease of the rubber tracks (all one piece) and the advantage of resin or plastic tracks (paint and weathering). And all you have to do is use a hair dryer! Brilliant
You know, with your modelling skills and attention to detail you should be 3D modelling and making your own kits for everyone to purchase! Love these vids you release and always watch them more than once as there is usually a trick I can learn to improve my skills. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Oglądam jak zawsze z zaciekawieniem i jak każde video robi ogromne wrażenie ale porównanie gotowego modelu do zapalniczki rozwaliło mi kopułę, nie potrafiłem sobie uświadomić skali du puki tego nie zobaczyłem
What kind of sorcery is this😉 As always a masterpice. I love your zimmerit tools. Have you try to make one with slitly rounded shape isted of straight. Makes it easier in rounded shapes. Or eaven a tiny zimmerit roller. And again a masterpice
I would actually liked to see you make somthing biger like an rfm tiger whit interiour or something or the tamiya 1:32 mosquito as yours big b vids are so good those models would probably be a joy to se and probaly much to learn by
The plaster coating looks so good on the model. It always made me laugh that they spent so much time in real life applying that to all the tanks for the war and it did absolutely nothing to help. It was just an idea a guy had high up in the military and they all ran with it. Didn't improve the tanks armorment at all.
I'm amazed at your talent. How long have you been building models? I started as a kid in grade school though to high school building tall ships by Revell (I'm 65)- perhaps if I had continued and was more serious, I would be close to your level. I've only gotten back into model building with diecast 1:8 scale, but your videos have inspired me to revive plastic model building - starting with the Tamiya Dacuti 1199 Panigale.
David, I always love your videos! Would you ever consider doing a Warhammer vehicle? I see you’ve done some Warhammer models in the past and it would be fascinating to get a primarily historical modeler’s perspective on a famous sci-fi tank!
Very nice. Love your modelling skills. Dependent of version, either the first or the first and second set of road wheels should be steel as the tank was quite nose heavy.
You're a clever, talented man David👍😊✌️ How do you find 0.2 nozzles/needles and acrylics re dry tip (do you use a flow improver)? I have been using H&S airbrushes for a few years, not dared to go down to a 0.2 nozzle/needle set up yet🤔🤔
Nice to see you left out the muzzle brake because it would only give away position, so crews removed it in the field. Noteworthy tidbit is that they actually improved the recoil mechanism to cope with the removal of the muzzle brake - still a very potent tankdestroyer with a more efficient fighting compartment than both Stug 3 and Hetzer, yet retention of a super low hull silhouette.
In the start it's just a model , but when you are done , it's a masterpiece 👏
Beautifully done! Amazing how such a little model can be brought to life.
"I cut decals into two pieces." YES - THIS IS THE ACTION I CRAVE!!!!!!!
Ever since I got to climb on and into a StuG a year ago it has been dear to me, now you made the shape of Jagdpanzer also into one of my favorite shaped panzers.
The tools for the zimmerit is the best I have seen, and the 3d resin pieces are a super detail, it looks spectacular
The zimmerit is amazing! Great job!
Outstanding build when you look at the detail that your putting into a 1/72 scale it's just AMAZING!

Simply amazing, as usual. I really need a set of those zimmerit tools, also in 1:144, 1:100, 1:48, 1:35, and 1:20.
"and lastly, I glue wheel"
this is the commentary I subscribed for
100% 👍
You and absolutely brilliant you actually got me into this awesome hobby a year ago when I first watched one of your videos.
Damn good job, PLASMO. Your canvas is a piece of plastic and you are a true artist who brings it to life as another commenter mentioned.
Hallo mr. Plasmo. I love watching a modell grow and develope.great job you did. With best regards and sticky greetings your modellmate. Christian

Wonderful; I hope you are going to use these latest models in a diorama, we haven't seen one for a while !
Awesome result! All the best for You! ;)
Intro just keeps getting better! 😊
One year ago I was watching your videos, after an year I have my first models done. Very basic stuff but I fuking love modelism
Fantastic model. You have a good eye for color, it was sometimes wasted potential when you went overscale with chipping and weathering but you seem to solved that problem!
So imo a perfect model. Well done.
I like how every time a new video comes out he comes up with another tool or technique to improve his modeling skills.
As always wonderful job. Absolutely amazing work
As always, an INCREDIBLE video.
I had to Google it cause I was curious... But the "Zimmerit" texture being applied was a hard paste that was applied to German tanks to keep magnetic anti-tank mines from sticking to the armor.
Yeah, but then they stopped doing that because as it turned out, during the ww2 Germans were the only one's who actually used magnetic mines
@@METRO2033RUS You are halfway right.

@@Elizabeth-0 I remember that too. I've got lazy to write that because my English is not perfect)
Thank you for all of the great hints and tips! Always a joy to watch!
Wow!This Jadpanzer tank looks so good!
Really beautifully done, thanks David. The Zimmerit tool though, I'm not sure, I prefer individual indentations, more like hand made with a spatula, not so straight and some flaking here and there.

Nice attention to the extra detail.
Ahhhh a new Plasmo video. ❤️
Beautiful work as always David. Great stuff
"minor improvements" yeah yeah. 😂 That's what we're here for!
Awesome zimmerit, amazing model!
Piękny. Super robota.
Great video. The tank looks fantastic. Great build. Ron
such a wonderful example of 72 scale modelling.
This man is incredibly talented.
Also 5th here.

Very beautiful work
Hello! great job like everyone else on this channel... I can tell which model of airbrush you use... thanks and congratulations.
Great job plazmo
Awesome job, next you’ll have to make a mold to recreate the “waffle” pattern zimmerit on your next model.
Sei sempre un MAESTRO………
Fantastic work.
Very cool and great detail in such small kits and I love the detail your putting into the build looking great. 🙂Thomas over at The Model Hobbyist
Ahoj. Opět super stavba a díky za videjko 😉
Yeah a blow dryer will turn resin into noodles. Great job plasmo. Eskiddy odo
stunning work, is there a place to purchase your zimmerit tools? thank you!
where did you get the huge lighter?
Strewth mate, top notch job

Hello David,
absolutely fantastic work 👍. Is it possible to purchase the STL files for printing?
Greetings Berthold
Ok plasmo excelente montagem.... Brasil pátria amada....
I I would very much like to see you build and improve the Lindberg 1/48 X-3 Stiletto. An uncommon model to see on TH-cam, but interesting in general.
David, I always love your videos! Would you ever consider doing a Warhammer vehicle? I see you’ve done some Warhammer models in the past and it would be fascinating to get a primarily historical modeler’s perspective on a famous sci-fi tank!

Oh hell yeah
Plasmo be like: “this zimmerit looks too unrealistic. So I got some samples from a real Jagdpanzer from a museum”
Good job excited for more🎉
