As an aircraft mechanic, I love the attention you give to the inner panels. You matched the ubiquitous zinc chromate green perfectly. This corrosion resistant paint has been in use on military aircraft for the better part of eighty years now, and to see it so precisely replicated is outstanding.😀👍

I'm sure you've heard of Sheperd Paine. Previously 'the' master.

And here I thought that you were already a master but there you go raising the ceiling even higher... damn, this is pure art. Beautiful work, as always.

You definitely take modelling to another level Plasmo, incredible stuff. As always thank you for the video, and the inspiration.

Plasmo cutting out the music to just yell "Epoxy Putty" with his accent warping the words will never get old.

I think you are seriously among the top 10 scale modelers.

David, no Plasmo model is ever complete without a FEW modifications, absolutely gorgeous….thank you…be safe…from South Africa

Your already a Rock Star with your builds, you've outdone yourself, thank you posting your B-29.

Wow, I thought my models had a lot of detail. Excellent build 👍🏻👍🏻

Absolutely incredible build. The amount of extra scratch built detail put into Plasmo models is incredible.

It's amazing how you brought a static model to life and the sound of thunder and spotlights are over the top. From a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being best I give you 💯.

Ι just can't praise your work enough, every time you out-do yourself with these pieces of art!

Hands down, thats one of the finest displays of work I've seen. Glorious.

The paint on decals, weathering and engine upgrades are a great choice. Really makes the model . Great build.

David it is a pleasure to watch you build these kits and give us ways to improve our modeling skills, much appreciated and all the best to you and your family!!

Beautiful build! My grandfather flew as a tail gunner on B-29s and I've always loved this aircraft.

You’ve officially convinced me, I’m absolutely going through my jewelry pieces and old parts to find a few gears and making me a Rosie. Those rivets lines are chefs kiss perfect!🤌🤌🤌

Always a pleasure to see a new 'Plasmo' video especially after a week at work. Chilling watching with a nice glass of red wine wishing I had some of your skills. Great work as always David

Браво! Я просто смотрел у меня и то чуть сердце не остановилось от напряжения... Вы - большой мастер!

I fell in love with the B-29 about 55 years ago when a friend showed me his Airfix kit. It's been my favorite airplane ever since! You really do it justice - what a labor of love!

The B-29 was one of my favorites as a kid too...until I saw Strategic Air Command and the HUMONGOUS B-36. It was so powerful, so absurd that I fell in love with it immediately. To this day it might be my favorite bomber of all time, though the B-29 and B-17 come very close.

There's model making, and then there's what this gentleman does. Unbelievable. Looks absolutely gorgeous, like you could get in it and fly

Absolutely fantastic -- museum-quality masterpiece! I realize why you did it -- for us -- but leaving one wing intact, and rhen re-masking and matching paint for the second wing was crazy. This is a once-in-a-lifetime model, David. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Respect.

That has to be the best B-29 build in any scale that I have seen. Outstanding job!

Wow! I watched several more recent videos before I watched this one. Your English has improved noticeably in only a year. Kudos to you, sir. Of course, your work has been excellent for a long time.

My grandfather was CO on one of these in WW2 and the Korean War. I've always wanted to make his plane, but wow I'm pretty sure it wouldn't look like this. Incredible work- all the riveting!

I hope you never stop making videos , Happy modeling , bro !

Dave, beautiful build of one of the most iconic bombers ever designed. You are an artist of the highest order. Thanks for sharing.

This guy is to be admired. He has achieved the highest level of excellence .

Ein Meister der sein Handwerk versteht. Wunderschöne Detailarbeit. Es macht Spaß zuzuschauen. Man merkt die Liebe die sie da ranstecken

You are the most talented modeler I've ever seen and I'm grateful you take the time to record this for us mortals. It never fails that my mouth falls open at some point in your video from sheer awe. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing. I really like the running commentary as you describe how you're achieving these incredible results. Congratulations on a wonderful result!

Love your videos man. The "especially if you realize you need four of them" line about the custom engines was gold.

I never thought I’d see the day this channel did a US heavy bomber!!! Can you do a b-24J in the future?!?!

I was lucky enough to see a real B-29 fly over at an air show a few years back, it is a truly impressive aircraft. Your model really does justice to the full size plane. Great work!

So good! Got the kit on my shelves since 2 years and this was the next on my bluiding planning. Thanks David.

The B-29 is one of my favorite aircraft. I've seen FiFi, one of the only 2 airworthy ones left at airshows twice and I'd gladly go out of my way to do it again.

Beyond words! Best scale model builder ever

Nádhera, jako vždy. Tvoje preciznost a smysl pro detail je neuvěřitelná 👌

I just love watching you take a so-so model and making it into a masterpiece! I don’t have the patience to add that kind of details to my models. Thanks for sharing. Happy days and model on! 😎🇨🇦

This is the definition of doing it well and doing it good

Your work is like a symphony. Bravo.

WOW!!! What an amazing build! A suggestion, if I might, you might want to put some chipping and simulated oil stain on the openings where the cowling access covers are removed. In my experience as an aircraft mechanic, these areas wear from fretting and frequent removal. I love your channel! Thanks!

Chipping? The B29 came in bare aluminium only, no paint to chip. Stains maybe, but they were expensive birds so they'd be cleaned post ops. IIRC they cost the same as a navy cruiser.

@@davidharris733 The B-29 was around $605,000 per copy in 1944, the Cleveland class cruisers, commissioned in 1942, were $31 million. Amazing aircraft, it was the first to have "flexing" wings, meaning the wing would flex as it developed lift and transitioned to flight.

I saw The World at War, was pretty good as documentaries go. The B-29 was developed to deliver the nukes from Manhattan Project. The total program cost was $3 billion (1945) which was the most expensive program of the war. The Manhattan Project, which developed Fat Man and Little Boy was only $2 billion.

Going to the Oshkosh Wisconsin Airventure event this year for the first time. They are celebrating the history of the US Air Force. Guessing we’ll be seeing one of these up close and in the air soon! I can’t imagine the terror when bombers like this filled the sky and blotted out the sun during the war.

I think this is your best build yet the amount of extra detail you added lifts the basic kit in to a work of art, keep them coming David

Wow!!!....She's such a Beautiful Bird!!! Great work looks just like a REAL one!

Nádherná práce, jako vždy. Hezčí b-29 jsem nevidél. Děkuji za tvá videa, jsou velmi inspirující. Díky nim jsem se mnohému naučil a pozvedl své modely na vyšší level. Těším se na další videa!

One of dad's favorite story's from WWII, was when they brought over a B-29 to the UK and made sure to park it where the Germans could see it! Sure enough a spy plane made two passes and went back to Germany unharmed!😇

I built that kit in 1972. The piece of art you created compared to my build is the Mona Lisa compared to a stick figure. LOL. Thanks for the video.

Honestly people on videos make it seem so easy when in reality it takes me hours and hundreds of different pint switched for one model so great job

this brought back a memory, when i was a kid i talked my mom into buying a model of the Enola Gay, it had a 3 foot wingspan and was super detailed. i spent weeks painting the inside and it killed me when i put it together almost all of my hard work couldnt be seen.

When modeling becomes art. Amazing work!

I don't build aircraft but make a point to watch all your videos. You do Amazing Work!!!!! I'll be watching

Incredible.. The quality of your work and the way you present it is truly world class. So well done! ❤

Always superb, always mesmerizing! I could watch you for weeks on end - such a master craftsman!

Brings back memories. I flew on the KB-50s, a B-29 fitted with refueling drogues and a J-47 jet engine on each wing. A Frankenstein B-29. Unreliable piece of junk. Sometimes landed with the propeller hanging loose. R-4360 engines were a mess to repair. 56 sparkplugs per engine. Caught 13 on fire just ground testing. The ground crew called me "Sparky". Retired the aircraft the year I was discharged. Great job in making this model - all your models. You are an accomplished artist.

In a thousand years I wouldn't be this good

I remember one year my family took a trip to the Museum of Aviation in Warner Robin's, Georgia. While there my dad bought me a B-29 "Enola Gay" model. I can't remember what brand (this was almost 20 years ago) but I built it over the course of a few weekends. It didnt look near as good as this does though, excellent work as always!

Incredibly excellent work as always Plasmo, you're a beast at modelling. I would suggest you tot take a look at Italians ww2 airplanes models (c.202, c.205 or G.55), they are really good looking planes and I think you're going to like making their North African camouflage. Keep it up man 💪

This is the level of detail that I love to put into my models. However it's been a long time since then. Mostly I've been modifying them for more accuracy. I like to build out of the box but many manufacturers don't include the amount of detail required for such and undertaking. Thank you for sharing this with us. Your skills are exemplary and of museum quality!

A true masterpiece.....if the spinners would move and the plane could taxi it could be real B-29 in action!

Wow! Outstanding work my friend. Where did you find the space to build that monster? It is a beauty no doubt about it. Your eye for weathering and details are outstanding. Yes, I think it's a good idea to build a smaller, much easier model after the B-29. Kudos to you, my friend.

The attention to detail and patience you have, is amazing! This kept me glued to my iPad watching this whilst waiting at the airport for my flight. Well done!

I love your models so much, but I have a question will you ever make an aircraft model with battel damage?

Did you know both B29s used to drop two suns on Japan where heavily modified so the bomb bay could fit the Atom Bombs. Even then they were a struggle to take off with. Also I think you should do a HE 111 crashed in the ocean from the Battle of Britain, sorta floating sorta sinking.

Beautiful model. To fly to Japan from Marianas bases, B 29s only used 1 bomb bay for bombs, the other bomb bay had a fuel tank installed.

It has been a true joy watching your skills grow over the years on your channel. You are a true inspiration!

B-17 sunken half in the lake! :P That's what I ask since years! Why? Because I described and worked on such plane in every historical detail and even family members of crew visited me accross the ocean to see remains of the plane. Ofc it no longer is visable above surface of the lake.

This guy must be a billionaire. All these kits, tools, paints and others costed him thousands. Not to mention where he places those models, dude lives in a mansion and has his own warehouse next door.
