- 1:15 Scale. Model Engineering. One-Off Aluminum Model. Truly Scratch-Built.
The custom metal models built by Guillermo Rojas Bazán are considered the best in the world in their category by several institutions of wide international prestige such as the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, the National Museum of the United States Air Force and Christie's South Kensington. See "Recognition letters" here:

Every time i want to be stunned with perfection i watch one of these mind blowing videos...and no matter how often i watch them im still left speechless.
I really appreciate your kind words, sir, and thank you for watching my videos!
just pure art right here and in all your work.
Thank you, sir.
you don't see craftmanship like this too often .. astonishing really mate good job
There can be no possible reward for such patience,skill and talent to produce something that can truly be called a scale representation of its subject.Thank you for allowing us to share in your amazing creations.
I thought that was a real BF-109 starting up the engine, then I realize that this is the state of art. Well done Rojas. You are one of the luckiest men in the world, you have the talent and be able to use it in the best way you can. Keep building more models , waiting for the next beauties
Calvin, thank you for your kind words and appreciation of my work.
Where has this content been all the years? Amazing!
Several of my videos have been on youtube for 10 years. The modeling media do not promote my work because they make money not only through advertising, but also through the promotion of kits, accessories, tooling and paints in articles uploaded by the common modeler. With my models they can't earn a penny: no kits, no accessories, no paint promotion.
Outstanding!!!
A crew of 1/15 scale aircraft machinists couldn't do better.
Thank you
I'm bowing my head low to you in my deepest respect and admiration.
Thank you very much for your kind comment!
rojasbazan Mister, my sincere respect. Thank You for sharing Your work with us.
Karl Vielen dank, Karl.
Words can't express the awe I feel. Truly engineering masterpieces.
The fact you take into account every little detail in your projects made me wonder: Would you be able to build the real thing assuming you had all the necessary tools and equipment at hand?
Of course not, sir. I only dedicate myself to scale models. Thanks for watching.
Work worthy of applause.
Fantastic.
Congratulations.
Thank you, sir!
Unbelievable. I wish we could see this updated in HD.
Ricardo, my Messerschmitts were sold by Fine Art Models 15 years ago and I don't know where are they and who are the owners, so it is impossible to remake the video in better resolution (the same happens with my other models filmed during the 90s; B-17, F4U, P-51, P-38, Spitfire, B-25, Fw190s, etc, etc). If you are interested in better images about these models, please visit my website; you'll find a lot of photos in good resolution about them. Thank you for watching.
@@rojasbazan hello, thanks very much for the reply. I will certainly look at your website.
Your model making talent takes modeling to such a high standard that it probably can't be replicated by anyone else. You have a gift my friend. The first time I saw your work I couldn't believe what I was seeing and called my wife to the computer to see for herself! Amazing! (I'm a pilot & a modeler, and was in an F-14 squadron while in the US Navy so I know a little about airplanes.) Incredible! Keep stroking brother!
You can see the passion and love oozing from every rivet. You are a master and have the patience and attention to detail of 20 expert modellers
Thank you, Jeff, that's very kind of you.
That is insane! I can't believe how well done they are! I also can't imagine how much time it takes - but wow.
With the amazing level of detail in your work, I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if the reason the prop is spinning is that the engine is a complete working tiny version of the DB605.
Tom, I think the smallest scale gas engine replicas have been built in 1:5. My models are built in 1:15 or 1:16; too small scale for that. That's why I put an electric motor inside. You can watch my last video Ju 87 B-1 Part 3. Thank you for watching.
@@rojasbazan your craftsmanship is so outstanding I wouldn't be surprised if you did make a working 1:15 scale engine.
Dave, thanks for watching my videos and your kind comment.
Well done sir! The opening scene of the aircraft in the hanger had me completely fooled I.e. I thought that I was watching the real thing! The modelling skills involved here are beyond belief. Makes me want to hide away my old Airfix models!
Thank you, Ray. And please don't hide your old Airfix models; I also started with them!
If I was a young man again, how much would I like to apprentice under this guy!
If you do not have any physical disability vital to the practice of modeling (mind, sight, hands), you can continue to enjoy this activity despite the age you have. I'm near the 70s and right now I'm building my best model ever made (a Ju87 B1). I'm working on a book to teach my techniques. I hope to finish it as soon as possible.
rojasbazan While I build mostly 1/ 100 scale WW ll US Navy ships , some Cv and Avp with aircraft, I will definitely buy your book! I enjoy the finished projects, however the journey is much more fun than the destination. Many people ask how I do many of the things they see, and I’ve been reluctant to tell since they are not going to try. But I’m intrigued by the thought of such incites as yours. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Darryl, I need to publish a book or a video tutorial because it is a lot of people who write me for more than 30 years asking questions about my techniques. And without exaggeration, there are many hundreds of modellers from different countries who ask me for advice for more than 30 years. My work became known worldwide in 1990 when I started building models for an aviation art gallery in London during the 50 anniversary of the Battle of Britain . Since then articles about my models have been published in magazines and newspapers of five different countries (you can check all this on my website, link "International Press"). In 2004 I launched my webpage and in 2010 I opened my own CZcams channel. As a professional model maker, if I had to answer every email I receive, I could never devote to my work. That's why the only solution is to publish a book (although I'm preparing it slowly because I don't have enough time). Thank you for watching my videos.
@@rojasbazan when, and where we can buy Your book??? Thanks
@@rojasbazan can I give you the money now for that book!?! Look forward to it. Your work is truly something else. Exceptional isn't enough.
Sir, magnificent......your work is simply outstanding...I congratulate you
Sharanbir, thank you very much for your comment and for watching my videos!
i am now 35 years a modeler, most i build model kits in 1:35. But your job is the most wonderfulest, greatest, breathless, speechless ,prettiest what i ever seen, fantastic. I feel so little now.........
Wow! I have never seen such a level of artistry!!! You have managed to combine engineering and your skills into a new visual art form. Where do you get your drawings and diagrams to work from? Thanks for providing us modelers with such ‘eye candy’!!! ❤🎉❤
Kirk, thank you very much for your kind comment. What I do is not something new; I have been building models in aluminum for more than 40 years. My work is not known at a popular level because current scale modeling is directed only to the plastic industry through forums, plastic modeling associations and specialized magazines.
In some cases I work with engineering drawings, and in others I draw my own plans based on other drawings (I explain it in my Ju 87 B-1 videos).
www.rojasbazan.com/press/international-press/index.html
Wow ... I just discover your channel . This is simply fantastic , no other word !!!
Thank you, Jan. This video is old and was recorded in 1994. In a few months I will upload a new video in HD about my 109s (the Emil and three Gustav) using the best photos I have.
@@rojasbazan Wow, ok great !! I can't wait to see it !!
Dear friend, I´m very glad that you enjoyed the video and I appreciate the kind words. Thank you!
Absolutely beyond what you think one man can do with his bare hands!!! Well done.
I take my hat off to you sir and applaud your excellent work. Well done.
Thank you, Luois.
Thanks, Andy, I really appreciate your kind comment.
Paul, thank you for your comment, I really appreciate your kind words
This is true craftsmanship. No finer scale models anywhere.
brilliant work, this level of craftsmanship needs extreme patience, skillset and perseverance. Congratulations!!!
Thank you for your kind comment. Don´t feel ¨little¨; surely you build excellent models.
Nicolo, thank you very much for your kind comment.
Unfortunately most of my models belong to various private collections and museums. For this reason can never be exhibited as a complete collection. Anyway in Buenos Aires there is a complete collection of 87 of my models in 1/40 scale in the Naval Museum (Naval Aviation).
I have never seen so much detail. Absolutely superb, you are a true master! Thankyou for sharing with us.
Thank you very much for your comment, which is the comment of someone with authority. Sometimes I work for days to build a small detail that few people comes to appreciate. When someone appreciate that specific detail, I feel that the effort has been rewarder.
Your workmanship is fantastic, and the details are simply stunning. These really are
impressive models, and a credit to your abilities. Your a craftsman and an artist.
Regards,
Dave.
Please visit my website. In the link ¨Model Features¨ you will find the technical specifications (props are motorized). You will also find more than 600 photos of more than 100 different models built in aluminum.
True art inspires wonder in other, your models do that very thing. Thank you for doing your part in preserving history......
You, sir, are an absolute genius and way above a master craftsman. May you enjoy all that life has to bestow upon you.
I appreciate your kind words, Charles. Thank you.
Thanks for your kind comment!
I'm again speechless, your talents are just overwhelming ,thank you for sharing kind sir.
Looks even sophisticated than the real plane. Amazing 💜
Thank you for the kind message, Roni
Thanks for the comment and the medal!
Amazing work Mr Rojas its simply a pleasure to see your work .That ME-109 was spectacular,(not to mention that 262). I am looking forward to see that zero that you are working on.Keep on modeling!!!.Greetings from Argentina.
I love how you built this models from aluminium! I mostly like the Messerschmitt... 40 years ago i built models in plastik from Revell lol... fantastic work with all the fine details!
Thank you for the comment, Tom.
Wow. The quality and craftsmanship is superior to the point where I started to question the very fabric of my existence as a model builder.
Still amazes me after all these years. I am subscribed to this genius of a craftsman.
+Nash Cruise
Thank you very much, Nash, I really appreciate your words.
Over the years I've built engines and transmissions and whole cars. Houses and log homes and strip malls and one (small)skyscraper. Built models for 40+ years... Wouldn't even know how to begin to do this. Amazing in the truest sense of the word.
Thank you, sir.
Incredibile, stupefacente,bellissimo!
Grazie mille, Gianfranco!
This video is old and was recorded in 1994. In a few months I will upload a new video in HD about my 109s (the Emil and three Gustav) using the best photos I have.
@@rojasbazan De nada Rojas...
Ti posso fare una domanda?
Ma come riesci a fissare le parti metalliche,per esempio le centine sui longheroni o le coperture delle ali, o quelle della fusoliera poiché l'alluminio non è saldabile.
Usi colla?
@@gianfrancobacco3437 Yes, I use epoxy: go this link and look for "Info Poxi" magazine (you can use something similar):
www.rojasbazan.com/press/index.html
Carissimo Rojas,(ma è l tuo nome? Mi permetto di darti del tu se non ti disturba).
Sai quale è il grosso fastidio che io provo ammirando i tuoi modelli?
Che non posso salirci sopra, accendere gli impianti elettrici, mettere in moto il motore, rollare sulla pista e decollare.....😅😠😠.
Con dei particolari così dettagliati viene la voglia veramente di mettere in moto il motore Junkers 211 o il Daimler-Benz 605 o un Pratt & Whitney......
In un certo senso come Michelangelo Buonarroti che colpì con una martellata il David pronunciando la famosa frase "Perché non parli!!!"
A me viene voglia di dire..
" Perché non ti metti in moto è decolli!!!"
😂😂😂
Un grande abbraccio dall'Italia!
Gianf.
Absolutely superb models and with real music for grown-ups. I doff my hat.
Thank you, Sir.
This is the main idea. In a a couple of years the first video would be available. Thank you for your kind comments.
Truly incredible and about as perfect as anyone can get. The levels of expertise and dedication to the craft are truly awe inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Jitandro Z Thank you for your kind words!
Hi rojasbazan
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL work my friend.
You are with out a doubt the BEST scratch-built model maker I have ever seen.
The attention to detail is INCREDIBLE especially the engines,pure genius.
I have watched ALL of you videos and am amazed at the level of detail in all your aircraft .
You must be in your workshop 24/7 creating these masterpieces.
I salute you sir and keep up the great work.
Respect
CM6 :-)
Nice work!
Thank you, sir.
Stunning workmanship!! I pray for a new generation of equally gifted young People to carry on the the great work. Many thanks for taking the time and effort to share with us.
Ian Ewers Thank you for the nice comment, Ian. Also I would like to see young modelers interested in building models completely from scratch (although this is something very rare).
Being that I do plastic models I have to say that these put plastic models to shame. Well done and you have a great eye for detail. I'm dually impressed.
Your masterpieces always leave me speechless, there magnificent, Thank you for sharing,cheers.
Thank you, my friend.
The detail and craftsmanship are mind boggling. The epic classical music is so appropriate.
Thank you, John. Two days ago I uploaded a new video in HD with my latest work, a Ju 87 in 1:16 scale; a job far superior to that of these two models I built 25 years ago.
Could you do some teaching videos, showing us different techniques? We would LOVE that!!
The problem I have is that I have to fulfill contracts, and that makes me work under pressure and doesn't give me free time, but I've been working on a video tutorial for a long time. I hope I can finish it soon. Possibly when I finish the model I'm currently building (B-24 Liberator), I'll have time to finish that project.
Thank you, Peter. I am working on my DVD tutorial and finishing the A6M2 Zero.
Es más que impresionante. !!! Simplemente increible y maravilloso a la vez. Un ingeniero, un artesano y un artista.
Muchas gracias, tocayo!
@spankerpoligoli
I´m glad that you enjoyed the video and appreciate the kind words, thank you.
Thank you, I really appreciate your comment.
I am absolutely speechless and would love to see how you work. Well done
Wow, magnificent! You have the gears in my head turning. With all of these micro V12 engines people are building-I wonder about the possibility of building an authentic miniature such as this with a real internal combustion DB V12...granted-a scale model such as this would be wayyy to heavy to take flight-but would still be neat to hear the thing run and look as amazing as it does.
@gabriel29692
Hola Gabriel, lindo verte en youtube! Con paciencia, esfuerzo y ganas de construir totalmente en scratch se pueden hacer buenos modelos. Lo que tú estás haciendo en aluminio está muy bien por ser tu primer trabajo (y el fuselaje trasero del Bf109 no es fácil de hacer). Un abrazo!
Mr. Bazaan: You never cease to amaze me at your modeling Genius. I am envious of your Talents Sir. Keeping this to yourself would be nothing less than an absolute Crime against Humanity !! I Love Your Work beyond words Sir.
Thank you, sir.
Incredible, as usual, mind blown again...lol.
Hey Ragan, could you please let the camera linger much longer on the details so that we can really feast our eyes on everything? It is hard to catch the awesomeness within only two seconds. Please give us at least seven seconds per shot ☺
From your fan Norm
Norm, who is Ragan? my name is Guillermo an my surname Rojas-Bazán.

I really appreciate your message. Thanks a lot!
Un genio !
Te agradezco el comentario, Massimiliano.
Questa è Arte allo stato puro ! Te lo dice un Toscano come lo era Leonardo Da Vinci . Non ci sono parole per tanta bellezza !Complimenti 👏👏👏👏
@@massimilianoturini5217 Grazie mille, Massimiliano!
I really appreciate your comment. Thank you!
The nose and fuselage of the Me 262 always reminds me of an great white shark! Lovely design
Yes, sir. Thank you for watching.
Sr. Rojas, your friend Ramiro Arredondo in Puerto Vallarta just clued me into your work. It is MARVELOUS!!! i did a little modelling as a teenager, which helps me appreciate just how fantastic these models are. Yes, I marvel at them!
Sir, thank you for your nice comment.
Wow...A true artist. I really enjoyed watching this-an inspiration for sure!
Thanks for your nice comment.
@daz167
Thank you. About your question, all panels are opened and you can see the inner work. This was also the way the original was built. Cutaway models are impresive, but unrealistic. All Messerschmitts were built in prefabricated sections, so there were no skeletons without skin. I want my models look the closest to the original.
Gracias José. Respecto a la música, este video (y otros que he subido años atrás) han sido censurados en algunos paises por cuestiones de copyright. Por ese motivo mis últimos cuatro videos no tienen sonido.
@MAN394631
Thank you for your kind comment. I met Generalleutnant Günther Rall in a gallery of aviation art in Michigan, about 10 years ago.
Absolutely astonishing WOW
Thank you, Jakob.
The models appearing in this video were built in 1995 approximately.
The construction time was about three or four months. The models built in recent years have taken me a year to a year and a half (three years the B-17). They are constructed in aluminum in 99 %. I am working on a DVD to teach my techniques. On my website there's a lot more information. Thanks for watching.
Beautiful work. Stunning.
Thank you, Jon.
Thank you, Allan!
I don't even know what to say about this except it's so awesome it's hard to wrap my head around it.
Thank you, sir. In about two months I'll upload two videos about my current model, a Ju87 B1.
Thanks Kasper, these are old models. Next would be better!
I like trains and ships, too. Your videos are great!

Thank you, Jose.
Thank you for your comment!
Such a beautiful model you build, i hope your dvd comes out soon... You are what they call in Argentina a "Maestro" !!! I hope you can makes us happy with other builds like this . :-)
Interesting videos. I hope you enjoyed the ride
Oh my god , i thought it was the real deal for a second. And then i realized its the scale model
Thank you for the comment, Syarif.
Music : Fourth Movement from Beethoven's 5th Symphony in C minor. Only a masterpiece could do justice to another.
Thank you Herbert for the nice comment.
Thanks John!
Thank you, Henry. I'm working on that, but first I have to complete the Zero.
Hi rojasbazan
I am allways amazed at the level of excellent detail in your Beautiful Models.
I dont know where you get the time to make so many incredible Aircraft in such minute detail, 24hrs not long enough.
I have said it before and I will say it again YOU ARE THE BEST SCRATCH BUILDING MODEL MAKER IN THE WORLD.
And you should be a Millionaire,you deserve to be.
Keep these amazing works of art coming Buddy.
Big Respect
Keith :-)
P.S Please do a step by step build tutorial
