It is funny when youtube forgets that is not 1. April 😂 The first uploaded version of the video did not have sound, and the quality was only 360p. The best was that on my PC was sounds ok but on my mobile phone not so much 😢 Thanks for the info and comments that reuploading is neccesty. I hope, now is all fine. At least it looks like that.

Interesting, because I was waching it and had no problems with sound or quality, just got only to the half of the video and then it was apparently deleted.

I had Sound on the first one. Very weird
This man is so talented that replacing an entire component of the model is only a “minor modification.” Great job
May people would struggle to get this much detail in a 1/32 scale model!! Fantastic!
Once again you have provided modelers worldwide with powerful inspiration and a multitude of modeling tips and techniques for construction, finishing, and weathering scale model aircraft - and in this video some great insights into successfully working with photo-etch!! Please accept my sincere thanks for this video and all of the videos on your channel. I've been butchering styrene for almost 60 years and I always learn something to improve my modeling when I watch your videos. You are an indispensable resource for the scale modeling community!
You’re pulling my heart strings here. My grandpa was a TBM pilot in the pacific. Great work! It makes me want to get into modeling!

Go for it! Remember, you don't have to make it as high-quality as PLASMO does. I'm personally not a big fan of the painting part of modelling, but I love building the kits, so I'll often just give my kits a basic single-color coat of paint once they've been built

I started in 2020 during quarantine when I had nothing to do, and it has now become one of my favorite hobby. I would say to start with a cheaper kit like an Airfix, and start small.
I was like "this is pretty slick" and then the lighter reminded me its 1/72. Amazing!!

Ah yes, the ol' lighter for scale trick.
I love how when he says "minor modification" he really means im going to make this part so detailed that you cant tell the difference between the real thing. Absolutely Incredible
Great job once again, especially at 1/72! Model makers, for information : Navy planes serving on carriers, have a slightly faded color, less contrasted, less shiny, due to salty air and sea water. And they are soiled by graphite-based anti-corrosion products.
Utterly speechless! One of my favourite aircraft of the era and you've utterly knocked it out the park. To think the sheer amount of detail you've put in at 72nd scale I would love to see what you could do with a similar build in 32nd scale. I can't wait to see what you have in line next. Hands down best scale modeller I've ever seen!

There should be an 'amazing' button for videos like this
I love it when you say you’re making “minor modifications.” PLASMO, you have the gift of understatement. Brilliant work, as always.
I built the Hasegawa TBM-3 straight from the box back in about 1997 or so and i can appreciate how much extra effort you put in to bring this kit up to contemporary standards. Beautiful job!
WOW!!! You took this plain Jane kit and made it into a super model. The PE additions with the excellant weathering show us why you are one of the best. Great job!!!
Klobouk dolů, pane Mistr. Každé video mi ukáže něco nového. Moc díky za to, že je děláš.
This is not just great model making, this is art. Thanks for all your great videos.
You're a genius sir!!!! finally got me over my oil paint problems.....MANY MANY thanks Best wishes Howard
Another Masterclass in scratch building and Weathering ! Thanks for sharing this fine specimen !
Once again l am amazed at your talent and attention to detail , my uncle flew this plane in the Pacific , l think he would have loved to see this , he helped me build my first model , Tiger Tank .
The detail and weathering looks amazing! I love the light gray oil paints on the blue paint to give that salt water aircraft carrier weathering from the sea
Awesome work on the avenger. Love the way you did the weathering. Looks like a carrier worthy aircraft.
Absolutely fantastic!!!!! What an artist you are!!! This is plastic modelling taking to the next level!
Wonderful as always. The musical score was perfect. Thank you
I never had the desire to weather my models as I liked the 'new showroom' look. I very rarely make comments but after watching this video of he Avenger . . . . . absolutely awesome dood. You clearly have an eye for the colour combinations etc, which i don't as i'm slightly colour blind. The time and dedication that you've clearly submitted to this model has most certainly paid off. I think I will be watching more of your very well presented videos. I will buy some cheap and cheerful models and just start by playing around. You have been most inspirational to me, thank you
I've always wanted to go inside the lower rear room of the plane. It would be so cool to be in.
You never cease to amaze me with your patience attention to detail and vast amounts of skill...the Maestro
inspirational as ever. I started making models when I was 7 in 1993.. by the time I was 13-14 I stopped. I did a few in my 20's when I was on a downer and lonely. It brought me great joy. I then started back after seeing you videos 2 years ago. I've only managed 4 models. But really love it when I have the time to get into it. Thankyou for bringing back my childhood. I'm crap at it. But I find it extremely therapeutic.

Joe Smith I am 55 and back building models. We are our own worse judges. Do not underestimate your abilities. The only thing that matters is the journey. I have a very high stress job and I find it therapeutic, as well. With each one I get better and I try new techniques. Well, I like to think I am getting better and that is all that matters. Denial is wonderful thing. Haha.
Inspiring work once again, David. I have a 1/32 scale Avenger part built and seeing your work will motivate me to try out your methods. Thank you👍
All I gotta say is wow.. another build and a out standing job ! Very well done my friend !
And just look at the detail you get out of a kit this small , You Sir make build a kit look easy but I know that you put a lot of time and research in to building your kits your skills are over the top and your builds show it thank you for another build you Sir are at a different Level on Building Kits thank you for letting us watch and learn from a True Master at work.
We’ll done plasmo, you’re a world class modeller and make it look easy. Always enjoy your content.
Amazing work David. Thoroughly inspirational
For some reason, I reallylove the TBF Avenger and this is a masterful treatment of her!
Beautiful. You sir are the undisputed youtube king of 1/72 scale planes and tanks. You're treading into museum quality in such a small scale. Would love to see you do one of airfix's 1/32 cars.
Amazing work! Turned a very basic kit into a masterpiece!
Very nicely done. I bet you win all kinds of scale modeling awards
Stunning weathering. Well done.
Beautiful! I love the Avenger. I have the Accurate Miniatures 1/48 TBM-3 in my stash and your video is great inspiration!
I like it a lot , 1/72 PE is a challenging thought . As always executed to perfection.
Former Navy here. Dad served in the Pacific, and taught us boys about the carrier aircraft he vividly remembered. These models put you back in time in the '40's, so incredibly realistic. War's dirty grungy look...
Superb build, perfect paint and wonderful photography.👌😁
Very nice build David, I love your attention to detail, and your modifications, well done.
Excellent workmanship, fantastic details. Your a MASTER MODELER
That vacuum formed canopy is so awesome looking. Also some really nice work on the reference photos.
What an awesome rendition of this plane. You are a true master of the craft! We have an avenger on display in Gisborne where I live and it is HUGE!
No other words can be used apart from ..... Absolutley Stunning !!!! my god man, what a talent !!!!!
The Aircraft model is so beautiful.so excellent, it too elaborate, it too meticulous... Reminiscent of America's heroic history in WWII...Thank you very much. Wishing you and your family good health and happiness.
OMG! 😲 Simply perfect like usual. Fantastic build and inspiration for us.
Absolutely superb work at 1/72 brilliant build. Love the Grumman aircraft Wildcats Hellcats etc 👍
Always a joy to watch a master at work. Its amazing end result from the box you opened
Absolutely stunning! I am always amazed by the models you build!
Wonderful example of detail work. You are a true artist.
I’m separating parts which I don’t need. So , almost all. Builds an awesome model anyway. Love this guy
Simply jaw-dropping skill. Humbling to us mere mortals. Bravo.
I love what you do, mate. You are a incredibly gifted and skilled modeler. God bless!
What an amazing detailed model and that in this small scale. Fantastic work.
In one word... Beautiful! Fantastic work as always! 👍
Top notch craftmanship!!!
Utterly superb work David!
NOOOOOO !!! you are in another level the best of the best I can't never reach your level . Thank you to inspire all the community every time
This looks absolutely awesome, very nicely done
I’m not a fellow modeller, but I greatly enjoy your videos. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Wow, just wow! I have no other words. You are such an inspiration!
Another great build mate. That's how I'd love my models to look like as if you've just picked it off the runway/battlefield n put it on ur shelf
One of my favorite planes of all time! Thank you for sharing buddy!
Fantastic model and always professional videos! PLASMO an example for everyone!
Happy Easter with a new Plasmo Vidio - Perfect!
I don't even need to watch, it's Plasmo + Avenger= great build!
It's like watching a jeweller when you work with the P.E. Beautiful work.
Très beau résultat !! congratulations ...
Parabéns pelo belíssimo trabalho, impressionante a habilidade do Amigo, quanta paciência e empenho e fazer essa verdade obra de arte! PARABÉNS Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
That is sublime, you make it look so easy.
When David says "minor modifications" I know the video is going to be great. :)
Превосходная работа! Браво!
Again, absolutely superb work and an inspiration!
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing!
Просто, восхитительно,у вас всё получается.👌
Incredible! You're an artist. Well done.
love the style and shape of the Avenger , loads of character on this aircraft . You did a great job on her David , love the vacuum canopy looks very real 💛💙
Really ....I 've never seen an avenger as perfect as this one .By far the best on internet....and in 1:72 .The paint is awesome but the greatest idea that contributed to the perfection of the result was the thermoformed canopy.
I love your storytelling!
Such modding and detailing... is amazing!
you see there is insane detail then there is this....just incredible!
The Avenger was one of the great naval aircraft of WWII. Thanks for doing the "Ole' Turkey" proud!!
Outstanding work!! it looks like 1/48 scale!
Another masterpiece of art and very inspiring ! Great job! As usual... 😉👍
Jeez mate, that's some solid aftermarket PE skills there! - lovely and brilliantly done!
Another Masterpiece of you David 😍😍😍
Very nicely done, as usual. That was a lot of P/E. I've found that lately when I do an extended session with CA glue, I get one hell of a headache from all the fumes. I did a 1/48 SBD Dauntless about 20 years ago that had the complete radio system between the pilot and rear gunner. If I remember correctly it was an Accurate Miniatures. Those radios seem to add a little to the human side of things. Very well done.

It is wonderful! When I am looking your videos, my skill grows up! Great respect from Russia to you!
With all those photoetched...I'd go insane! Awesome job!
A real pleasure to watch. Thank you for all the tips 😊👍👍👍
Wow this could easy put on shame 1/32 or 1/48 kits by level of detail !! Excellent job !
Another work of art. Well done.
Einfach nur Wow, Wahnsinnig starkes Modell.Sehr sehr schön 👍👍👍Was für eine starke Arbeit
I just got 1/48 tbf avenger from italeri so this video is great inspiration
She's a beauty, great work.
Amazing build. You've given me ideas for my Hellcat
Fantastic, as always. Love the music.
No matter how good I get at building model kits I'll never be as good as this guy.
