I don't know if I've said this before, but I don't even make models. I watch your videos to remind me that there is always a way to improve. When given a product or solution that seems "good enough", there is always something you can contribute and a new high standard of excellence to establish. Each project is a learning experience. Thank you for going through the trouble to record your process!

Would be nice to see how she looks in 1/350 scale which is a very common scale in ship model building.

Stunningly beautiful . Your weathering precision is perfection . Never over done . Just enough to bring it all to life .

This ship is an absolute beast in World Of Warships. You did an incredible job. The model is absolutely stunning.

Really an absolute beast? it's a tier 3 CL with most of it's armement in casemates with limited firing arcs, what you meant to say is it's quite a fun ship to play, that's about it.

Using all of its side guns makes you feel like you're using a 18th century ship-of-the-line because of how much guns it has

Beautiful build, just one flaw: the Stars and Stripes is from the wrong time period (ours)! The appropriate flag should have 3 rows of 8 stars and 3 rows of 7 (45 states from 1896 to 1908). But otherwise simply stunning what you achieved with 3d-printing 👏👏👏👏

@MswUSA you are absolutely right, the National Flag of the USA had (only 45 stars) from 1896-1908. Read about it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_flags_of_the_United_States

Nice job. For the small ribbing imperfections caused by 3D printing, I've found that scrapping them at 90 degrees with a sharp X-acto knife gets rid of them precisely, without unwanted loss that's often caused by a sander or grinder. Keep up the work, it's EXCELLENT!

I find these PLA 3D printed models can start to warp and split apart at the seams in a few years, if not kept in a temperature controlled room. Awesome model and video!!!

Раньше я за ужином смотрел фильмы. Последние пару лет смотрю на эти шедевры. Успехов в следующих проектах!

Watching your videos have given me patience to do more details on my own models

Thank you , David . 🐺

Impressive! Your careful and sympathetic detailing made the model a work of art.

Absolutely beautiful replica of CA-20. Your artistic talent is truly a gift. I always learn a lot when watching you builds.

This is wonderful! It is so good to see 3D printing being adopted by modellers, it will mean that more unusual and interesting parts and models can be made, and talented designers can make some extra money from their work when they have supporters or sell 3D files. This will be a big step forward in the modelling hobby, and you did and incredible job with this build.

The future of plastic modeling, welcome to the 21st century

Dear Mr Plasmo, To say I am impressed by this project would be to understate the matter to a considerable degree. Weathering and shading at that scale appears a significant undertaking too. An excellent result! Regards, Z

Awesome work of art David, once again making something so beautiful.

Очередной шедевр,не перестаю удивляться Вашим мастерством.Супер,супер,супер!!! Ждём новых интересных видео от Вас.Удачи.👍👍👍👏👏👏

A new plasmo video, today is a good day.

The small parts are amazing, bringing the ultimate details to life, the way you paint and weather parts is fascinating. Thanks for very cool video

Absolutely brilliant work, this is one of my favorite pre dreadnaughts and it is really cool to watch it come to life as a massive 3D printed model.

Shows you how the 3D printers have come along! What a lovely build and great paint job 😘

Wow. Just, WOW! All 3D printed and it still looks amazing! Now, about you building a Fire truck.....

The sky is the limit now with 3D printing. Wonderful job creating that model!

That deck looks amazing.

Nice. Like the complimentary application of the two types of 3D printers and how you were able to resolve texture and seam issues.

As always exceptional work from start to finish - especially like the deck finish - well done and thanks for sharing

A new age of modeling has begun, where we can 3D print our kits. Nice build, I like the realistic decks.

This is one fascinating model! It's huge - didn't click at first how big 1/150th scale would be for something other than a sailing ship, but it seems to go together fairly easily and the weathering and other paint details really make it stand out.

The St. Louis was a beautiful Ship, and bristling with guns! They later decided that many of those guns saw such limited use that they removed them and instead mounted smaller turrets on the fore and aft decks and midships with smaller, antiaircraft guns as airplanes become a standard military machine, and how Brig. Gen. William "Billy" Mitchell proved how a single aircraft could sink a battleship. So anti-aircraft guns were placed on all American vessels. But the St. Louis was a classic old steamer with all of her side mounted gun placed in her hull, which provided incredible protection for the gun crews manning them plus the beautiful scroll worked plague placed at her bow, I wish the Navy still placed such plaques on the bows of every warship they make. Thanks for sharing this build of the St. Louis with us. I actually have a copy of this file, I kept it, but I wasn't sure if it would be worth making, and now I see that although not as detailed as it could be, it is still a beautiful model and any person would be happy to have a completed version of it on display, except for the more detail orientated naval modeler out there. But to place it on a shelf under glass would be a nice addition to any man-cave or office. Can't wait for your next video!

Excellent! Thank you so much for doing a ship model, they're my favorite!!!

I have to say, For how crude the 3-D prints looked, you achieved a VERY nice result. Thanks for sharing.

Wow that Printed Very Well! You Work is Amazing, it looks sooo Real. I’m still Shocked how well 3D Printing has come along.

I'm really impressed by your weathering. Great Job!

Congratulations on the excellent work. First time I see 3D printed kits. I hope for other models like this one.

Welcome back. I hope you will continue building the larger scales. But I enjoy your videos no matter what scale or subject you use. You sir are an artist

amazing work as always. Thank you for the continued content. we really appreciate it.

I usually watch all the way through the end but this time I didn't feel likely to watch straight. No rush. Just delightfully watching in parts within 3 days to enjoy every scene. Congratulations again. Lovely model. 😎

This is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL, excellent job!!

Great effort making a silk purse from that clunky designed resin chunk. The weathering looks really nice.

Lovely work as always. The green really tied it all together I think :)

Amazing model of battle Ships, very very gorgeous work !

Very nicely done on a stupendous project. Lots of paint! Lots of everything.

So incredible how you perform. Amazing

I'm from st. Louis Missouri the southside of St Louis this is a grand ship outstanding work!

I’ve used world of tanks for reference photos before, and the warships game has one of the best art departments going,whoever designs the ships does a damn good job for sure

Once again, silk from a sows ear. Your modelling is par excellence.

mate your channel saves lifes and makes the world better iun every aspect thank you!!

Outstanding! It’s nice to see you build different things 👍

This is the natural step to follow. Why buy kits when you can make your own! Great work PLASMO 😊

Just stunning, well done.

I hope they make all the models available. The ingame models are so beautiful! What an amazing collection! I would like to build the Yamato, the Richelieu and the Clemson.

Perfect! Congratulations!

Really enjoy watching your process, you are amazing. Thank you.

Excellent as always. I have one part built ship and two part built boats, for radio control. You've inspired me to finish them✌️👍💜😊

thx for new tutorial. wiring is the most interesting stage of maritime kit.

Incredible! First time seeing 3D printed kits

Very good job! I like the larger ships because the scale effect is so much more realistic. On 1/700 ships, the halyards and masts always look so thick and unreal.

The Master has done it again. Excellent

Awesom model. I love it. You did a great job.

Stunning work as always!

Great job. I like unusual models. This definitely fits that description.

*Once painted and weathered it's no longer a big toy, excellent build PLASMO!*

Awesome David! Really well built!

Outstanding!

Nice! And it's in the beautiful "Great White Fleet" color scheme

I have not built a model in probably 40 years or so, but I do enjoy watching experts like you

simply spectacular, congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏

Damn, your printer does a great job. Testament to your attention to detail building and setting up your printer

Brilliant work David!❤

I love that bow design. Even today is used! A new cruise ship have this bow design (whit some corrections). Is just perfect! And is a design from 100 years ago! Good work man.

This has been a long time coming, I remember you teasing us with this like a year ago or something and I've been not so patiently waiting ever since lol. I love the size, turned out amazing as always David!! 👍👍

Great job! It's one of my favorite ships in WOWS. Even though it's low tier, it's a blast to play.

Judging from this video, and also knowing from a friend who is into 3D printing with filaments (although not into modelling), the surface is very crude. David needed to sand and prime again and again and again. Also, plastic filament as well as resin is not cheap, the time to calibrate and print everything is also significant. A proper injection moulded kit with some photoetch would be better for everybody. For someone with Davis skills, I would say even 100% scratch building may be more effective and give better results. David sure made a nice model. But when you look at his 1/700 ships he did with insane detailing, and then compare it with this monstrosity.... I think he just wanted to try something new, or maybe even got sponsored from WoW to do this, and then just finish it ASAP without his usual patience and attention to details.

Excellent build.

Perfect job, as always!!!

Great work as always!

That looked so fun to make !!

I made the statement several years ago that the future in modeling would be in 3d printing, its amazing how quickly its catching on. The quality is easly at the 60s early 70s era.

That's a big one you've got there David. 😮

Ma friend - you never fail to surprise!

Nicely done.

I have never thought about 3D printed models

Awesome build my friend keep up the good work

The USS St. Louis is one of my favorite warships of all time and this video was amazing. Now I just need to push myself to get my own 3d printer and make this one for myself.

Just Awesome! Love that time period, subject. Makes me want to get a 3D printer. great build!
