Your fan's, (we) love you. Cant wait to see your next marvel. I have just begun my 27th year as a professional model maker and I still can't carry your tool box. Take care Master.

      James, I am very sorry not to have answered before, I had several problems over the past few months. Thank so much for the kind words. I am currently building a huge 1:20 scale B-24 Liberator for the 467th Bombardment Group Association and also working on a first video tutorial to teach my basic techniques. Take care of yourself, too.

    O_O if you were to build an extremely accurate real life like diorama and put this in there and a photoshop of you touching the plane I would believe that you actually went to a museum or airfield and took a picture with the plane. This looks soo realistic. Great job!

    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

  • @dalsbury1979
    @dalsbury1979 Před měsícem +1

    It would be amazing to see a video of the technique. These models are the best I’ve ever seen. My grandpa was on B-24 that flew into Ploesti. He recently passed at nearly 100. He would’ve loved to see the B-24 you made. If you made a modeling course, I would pay for it 😀

    • @rojasbazan
      @rojasbazan  Před měsícem

      Sir, In some of my videos (Zero, Dauntless, Kingfisher, Ju 87), I show in a very simple way how I built scale engines, radio equipment, seats, etc. completely by hand using aluminum of different thicknesses.
      Your dear grandfather was one of the heroes who flew on that almost suicidal mission over Ploesti. It is inexplicable why Hollywood has not yet made a good film about that event. You must be very proud of your grandfather!

    • @dalsbury1979

    Muchas gracias por tu comentario. Respecto al aluminio utilizo cualuier tipo, mientras sea entre 01 y 05 (para poder cortarlo con tijera). El aluminio básico que consigo aquí es .010-3003 H14, pero la nomenclatura no dice nada, pues hasta he utilizado (en mis primeros modelos) aluminio de imprenta. Saludos

Eso se debe a que he comenzado a usar el youtube Studio beta y me aparecieron muchos mensajes de hace tres y cuatro años que nunca había visto (CZcams cambia las configuraciones bastante seguido y eso trae problemas). Yo siempre contesto y por eso lo vuelvo a hacer ahora, aunque hayan pasado tantos años. Creo que en 2020 voy a publicar el primer ebook con mis técnicas (el DVD vendrá después pues me lleva más tiempo). Lo anunciaré a través de mi sitio web y en este canal. Saludos cordiales.

      Hola. Casi todos los libros de monografías sobre determinados aviones tienen planos (AeroDetail, por ejemplo). También se venden en CDs copias de manuales y dibujos de ingeniería de aviones muy comerciales (Bf109, Spitfire, P-51 F4U). Hay que buscar en internet; lleva tiempo pero ahí hay de todo.
      Yo trazo mis propios planos comparando esas referencias entre sí y utilizando fotografías auténticas y visitas a museos para hacer las correcciones (el 100% de los planos comerciales tienen errores).
