You are, without a doubt, the most talented modeler to have ever graced this Earth. You have earned my utmost respect and admiration. If you could sell these, I would save up and buy them in a heartbeat. Well done. Also- I'm very sorry about your cat. I loved watching her in your previous builds.

Sir I am in awe of you... A pure delight to watch such workmanship.. Having said that.... I found that I had to watch it at 0.5 speed so I could absorb all the exquisite detail. At normal speed it flashes by too quickly....I think most people would be prepared to watch for 15- 20 mins to admire your work... Regards :-))

A cat lover is at another level, it visible in your perfect work. Mishi will remain in my memory

@rojasbazan Год назад

Sir, I really appreciate your very kind words. Mishi died in 2007 of a brain tumor when he was just 9 years old. That greatly affected my professional career during the following months.Two days after Mishi's death, and having the obligation to continue working because the client was rushing me, the OS2U model fell out of my hands and the central float supports broke. I fixed it as I could. I dedicated a link to my dear kitty on my website (the site needs to be fixed because the texts and titles are very messed up, but it is still viewable): www.rojasbazan.com/press/mishi-the-cat.html

I have nothing to do with modeling planes. When I see all those tutorials aboud plastic modeling and air brush technics for weathering etc. which is also more then amazing, and I see your modeling I blown away. This is engineering in a high order. To read all those blueprints cut and build until such a wonder is pure magic. To work 15 month full time on this model I wonder where your models end up. Thank you for these nice tutorials Rojas. kind regards Jeen

Been watching your builds thru lockdown and the craftsmanship and attention to detail is just another level. I like the ones with no music because, let's face it, the workmanship speaks for itself. It also adds to the silent 'mouth agape' appreciation I find myself in. LoL. Inspirational !

@rojasbazan 4 года назад

Jonathan, thank you so much for the nice comment. Regarding the lack of music, a lot of people think the same; "silent video" in this case is better (also someone always complains about the chosen music; I'm really tired of this). In addition, this way the video is "ad free".

Your work is truly outstanding and should be considered art in the highest sense. To plan, scale and fabricate all the parts needed to create one of your works is truly amazing.

@myleftnutts Thank you for your kind comment! A four- engine model in scale 1/15 takes me over two years of work and a model of two engines over one and half year. Because I want to build several models of two and four engines (Junkers Ju88, Heinkel He111, Avro Lancaster, Martin B-10, etc), the only way to do is changing the scale. My Stearman PT-17 is made in 1/24 scale and has all interior details, movements from both cockpits and working lights and propeller.

Muchas gracias Jose. Como sabrás, yo no utilizo ningún tipo de máquinas eléctricas para hacer este trabajo; es decir, esto es absolutamente artesanal aunque no lo parezca y bastante económico porque se necesita poco aluminio y tal vez lo más caro sea el epoxy de dos componentes. A partir de Febrero voy a dedicarme a hacer un video tutorial para poder enseñar estas técnicas. Saludos.

I see that you did a Handley Page Halifax model and have shown a couple of small glimpses of it in other videos. I tried, without success to look at the model on your website. I am interested in this particular aircraft as my Uncle Walter was a pilot with 419 Sqn RCAF and sadly was killed in action along with most of his crew in May 1943. I would dearly love to see more of your model of this aircraft if possible, please.
