How to illuminate a model – PLASMO's 1/48 Trumpeter Douglas DC-3 [VIDEO]
We learned to like and enjoy Plasmo's model construction videos on Youtube, and this one, featuring 1/48 Trumpeter DC-3 in Alaska Airlines livery is no exception.
However, I found this video special because it provides a more or less complete guide to using lightning, electric motors and electronics to illuminate and animate a plastic airplane model. Very useful if you want to try it at some point.

That is a work of art. Holy cow! Why does it appear so effortless for him and mine are all so labor intensive? It's a labor of love, so I guess it's worth it.

The magic of video. All the "hard stuff" isn't terribly "visual" so it's not there.

It's hard to find fault with anything David Damek does. To model so well AND shoot video takes it to a very high level. I really don't know how he does it!

I love watching David's videos. He's very skilled, and I always learn something new that I want to try.
