Also Boeing: "WOW! Your model kit looks as worn as the oldest Super Hornets (2000) do now!" Seriously. I think the first production lot Super Hornets (E and F models) are about service life expired unless they underwent structural reinforcement. The airframes were originally guaranteed to 6000hrs but the Navy was looking at extending to 8000 and possibly 10,000hrs per plane. The Super Hornet will be around until at least the 2030s and possibly the 2040s. Production has already been extended past the original contract. The F-35 is just too expensive and it's not reliable no matter what the Lockheed fanboys say. I think the Navy is buying less than 300 F-35C's.

I’ve built models since I was a little kid and I stared like everyone else back in the day of modeling but watching this I’m utterly impressed on so many levels. I’m going to actually give some of your ideas on my next model. Keep on modeling.

39:05 "Thank you for watching this long video," he says, as if I wasn't utterly mesmerized by every second of absolute artistry I just watched from beginning to end!

Plasmo: "This model isnt very accurate, so i scratchbuilt a shrink ray and shrunk a real plane." Outstanding.

Ditto all of the aforementioned accolades, I would like to add that its also superbly filmed and edited with a great commentary track!!

The craftmanship and attention to detail here is in a league of its own. Extremely impressive. Takes a lot of research and a lot of experience to reach this level of perfection. And in the tiny 1/72 scale!

It's not healthy for me to stare 40 minutes without closing my mouth and blinking my eyes. Excellent work, Sir!

I didn't realize it was a real model until I opened the video. I thought it was a 3D model... It is very cool! Such detail at such a scale... sometimes I can't thread a needle through the eye, but there are so many very small details!

1:1 scale more like it. That is a real plane! No way that is a model, particularly a 1:72 scale. Probably one of my favorite builds to watch, sir. I wish I could see it in person. Fantastic build!!!

Oh my god that is beyond next level! That is art! P.S The miniature division of the US Navy called, they want their FA/18 Super Hornet back 😉

The colored foil is an AMAZING IDEA. just wow! Those would look so cool on the optical system of tanks and other vehicles that usually have that purple hue to it.

"So I made special tools". I've been doing that almost 40 years. Most of my builds spawned micro-saws, micro-chisels, bores and awls, scribing templates and panel patterns specific to the make and model. Your video production values and pacing are eminently watchable, from a fellow modeller who can't leave kit parts alone! It's a matter of technical necessity that I correct glaring or subtle inaccuracies. I have so many similar "pecadillos" while kit-bashing. And it's nice to see someone else do a lot of them, too, in a compact and extensive summary. Now and then I have received surprised comments, from builds I post, that, "It's 1/72nd?! It looks 1/48th!" That has to be the ultimate compliment. Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to produce these wonderful "How-to" episodes.

Thank you so much for sharing your model build! I use to build models as a child but lacked the skill and tools for a very good build. I started building again and use your videos as a reference. Also, narrating what paint and parts are used really helps. Thank you so much! I hope you continue to do more builds.
