- 1:48, 1:40, 1:32, 1:24, and 1:15 Scale. One-Off Aluminum Models. Truly scratch-built. Museum Collections.
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:

He has worked as a professional model maker in four different countries building over 150 aluminum models in different scales for museums, collectors and aviation art galleries around the world during 38 years. See the related story:

Between 1989 and 1990, Executive Display Models (London) sold all my ¨British¨ planes. I think that the big Halifax, Blenheim (two) and several Spitfires that I built in 1/24 should be in some museum or collection in the UK.
I really appreciate your message. Thanks a lot!
I have nothing to say but thank you so much for your beautiful works of art.It truly inspires me my friend.
Thank you, Gareth. Hope you are well.
Amazing planes, what a craftsman you are.
They're all beautiful I love them all painted or unpainted doesn't matter beautiful
Thank you, Zach.

Beautiful and inspiring as always!!!!! Thank you!!!!

Hello Scott, thank you for your kind comment. This is my last video showing old models. In about five months I will upload my last one (still under construction).
@MrCrossbiker
Thank you for watching my channel!
As a former corporate model maker, I am so upset with the damage. I assume this was due to mis-handling. The time and attention to detail you put into these models warrants extreme diligence by those receiving them. When I ran the Atari engineering modelshop, a salesman plopped down his briefcase after CES, opened it, and took out a bashed around $42k model of the Atari 1200. I locked the door, and called my VP. Thirty minutes later, that salesman was out of a job. Your work is so exemplary, it deserves better.
Thank you, Kevin for the comment. I understand your feeling. Many of my y aircraft models are exhibited in three different museums in Argentina, but they were never given real importance, except when I just built them in the 80s. The museums barely paid for them and several were stolen. It was the main reason I left my country.
@@rojasbazan Your welcome. Your talent is remarkable, and should be appreciated and respected. Keep up the good work. It's such a pleasure for us all.
@@rojasbazan Your models should be in the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. I would think (& hope) that your models would receive the proper care & competency that they must have at the hands of Smithsonian Museum curators. Perhaps also, the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio would be good a place for your models, which deserve the absolute best in every way. But ultimately, it is your outstanding talent that is the most valuable.
@@shadovanish7435 Thank you for the comment, sir. My work was highly recognized among collectors and curators of the best aviation museums during the 1980s and early 1990s. But in 1993 I needed a green card to work in this country, so I started working for Fine Art Models in Michigan building original models that were copied by a team of Eastern European craftsmen in limited editions. The company kept my name under very little promotion because they usually advertised their own name as the company that built the models. I worked for FAM for 14 years building eleven 1:15 scale models including the huge B-17, B-25. F4U Corsair, Bf109, P-51 and many more.
The owner of FAM also bought six of the models I built between 1990 and 1993 from the widow of one of my best customers. When FAM closed in 2007, the man sold the entire collection of my models to a millionaire living in Malaysia. In this way, this unique collection was removed from this country, preventing it from becoming the heritage of the Smithsonian or the Air Force museum.
The following link (needs to be fixed but can be seen fine) shows some recognition letters; one is from the former curator of the Air Force Museum: www.rojasbazan.com/press/international-press/index.html

Hola Guillermo, por fin encontré quien hizo esos modelos del museo, fui muchas veces y siempre me preguntaba quien y como los había hecho, que yo te felicite es una pelotudez! nadamás te puedo agradecer por lo que haces la pasion que le pones y que nunca te detuviste, y espero que no se detenga nunca, quisiera saber un par de cosas para empezar, tenes modelos a la venta o laburas por encargo de particulares? y Estás formando gente o pensas hacerlo ? Sos un genio me encantaria verte laburar como haces para no hacer piezas mecanizadas,
hace muchos años gané algun premio en el club de modelistas argentinos y yace mucho no armo nada, pero verte me da ganas de retomar cuando tenga tiempo, no se si haré partes metalicas, pero por algunos estudios que tuve de orfebrería me da ganas de meter algunas tecnicas a lo que haga, bueno no me extiendo mucho mas por ahora, Gracias troesma!
Hola Hernan, gracias por tu mensaje. No sé a cuál de los dos museos te referís, si al Naval o al MNA de Morón. Hubo épocas donde ambos museos estuvieron conducidos por gente que conocía el tema, y en los dos casos, estaba escrito mi nombre como autor (en el naval en una chapa de bronce dentro de la vitrina, que "desapareció", y en el MNA cada modelo tenía abajo un cartel con mi nombre). Respecto a tus preguntas, no tengo modelos a la venta porque construyo por pedido desde hace más de 35 años. Hay mucha información en mi sitio web (te paso un link donde algunos artículos se pueden abrir): www.rojasbazan.com/press/international-press/index.html
En mi video Ju 87 Part 3 explico al final que debido a la falta de tiempo para contestar individualmente, estoy preparando un DVD tutorial para enseñar mis técnicas. Cualquier pregunta escribime a mi correo privado (en el sitio). Saludos cordiales.
@AniolCotxes
Muchas gracias por tus palabras. Saludos a la querida España.
Fantastic ,great !
Thank you!
Fantástico, son una maravilla
Muchas gracias, Marcelo.
@mp4f1
Thank you for your message!
7:26 so superbly realistic that even the engine's torque effect was reproduced!!! hahahaha
Very valuable masterpieces!
Thank you for watching, Vini.
Fantástico
Muchas gracias, Miguel.
@svinehunden
Thank you, Kasper!
Great more fantastic models to look at.
I've just been over to your web site, you mention that you may produce instructional book's etc regarding constructio/building processes. I sincerely hope that you find the time to this at some point.
great
Thank you, magali.
Beautiful Craftsmanship....... I love watching your videos.... But one question comes to me, I have seen videos of "Micro Engines" Have you ever thought of putting one inside one of your Works of Art?? Thank You for posting :-)))
Thank you, sir. When a client asks me to detail the engine, I have to build the engine completely in scale, that is, the engine itself is another model within the model. I offer the possibility of providing the model with an electrical circuit for the lights and propellers. Many of my models have electric motors inside the engine. That can be seen through several of my videos: F4U Corsair, P-51, Bf109, Fw190, Junkers G 24, P-38, B-25, this Stuka (Part 3) and the little Stearman PT-17 in 1:24 scale. The C-130 Hercules in this video also had four electric motors that powered the propellers and several lights.
@@rojasbazan I understand completely, Your customers are looking for detailed replicas. And I will be checking out all your videos. Thank you for taking the time to reply. Take care and stay safe :-)))
@carloshugo3131
Hola Carlos, por supuesto que seguiré haciendo modelos hasta que el físico diga basta. igualmente para mi jubilación todavía faltan cinco años, que es mucho.
Es imposible que haga modelos solo por hobbie (como hace casi todo el mundo), porque de esto vivo y es mi única entrada de dinero.
Mi hobby es hacer música con mi hijo y amigos.
Saludos!
ssooo, The one building these is the son of the Master of the Master???
My father was a modeler too. Thank you for watching, sir.
DO YOU BUILD ALL OF THIS!?
Yep, why not?
Superb models put at risk by ‘museums’ and governments who have no appreciation or respect for the achievements of model makers and historians or their jobs. In Australia 2020 we have a cultureless conservative NSW stategovernment which will bulldoze history and people out of the way of a quick dollar and discard and destroy its own history and assets to proclaim “saving money”! These sickening scumbags are ruining the whole planet.
I agree, Stephen. Yes, many museums around the world are losing their way. Fortunately there are still people who are trying to save history in one way or another; in Australia a group of good people has splendidly restored a B-24. That's great.
