    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

    An average little model (1/40 scale PT-17) can take two months of construction. An sofisticated, big scale model (like the 1/15 B-17) can take two years.
    My future commercial videos will be complete, with all my techniques, tips and my commentary.

    @rojasbazan  Před 14 lety

    Hello Lukas, the 1/15 scale is not appropiate for a real internal combustion engine, therefore these small hand-made engines are replicas with electric motors inside.

  • @sparbolt63
    @sparbolt63 Před 9 lety +1

    Amazing. You say these are done with no power equipment, wonder what you would turn out with a mini-CNC... Just mind blowing. Thank you for sharing your masterpieces with us !

    • @rojasbazan
      @rojasbazan  Před 9 lety +1

      Thank you for your kind comment. A mini CNC can only be useful to build wheels and some spinners (although most of spinners for small model aircraft built with lathes look like stainless steel ¨casseroles¨). For my models would be much more practical to use a metal stamping press (I don't have any because I don't build models in series).

    1/15 scale models take 1-2 years to complete (according to level of detail and type).
    1/24 scale take 3-12 months.

      @@thelivingrelic1101 En este mismo video aparece el P-47 en escala 1:15 que construí en 1992, en tiempos un tanto difíciles porque yo estaba cambiando de país. Por esa razón no tengo imágenes de video mejores ni muchas fotos. En este link aparecen todas las fotos disponibles (el sitio web está bastante desordenado y necesita ser reparado):
