"..waste our time showing it." Bro, I got nothing but time these days, feel free to show it. In fact, if you have any unedited, long ass videos of you working on these cars, I for one would happily watch them. Just my 2cp. Hope you and yours are healthy and safe.
I always love these post apocalyptic customs, actually it would be kinda interesting to a super-car transformed into a Mad-Max style Machine. Especially because it would have a carbon-fiber body so there would be no rust, just paint an raw carbon :v
BaremetalHW: for the engines I decided to freehand something out of brass on my lathe Me, wrapped in a filthy blanket, dying of scurvy, stealing wifi from my neighbors: ah yes, of course, that's what I would do
@@troyrgrant I dont believe so, I believe it was their semi-sarcastic way of saying that not everyone is fortunate enough to have the money and skill required to own their own metal working lathe. O.o
To be fair... You could do a so so job with a benchgrip and some files... And a metric ton of patience. =D But yes.. Having a workshop is a big boon when doing custom work.
I follow a few of the diecast hobby channels, one thing I have noticed is the unreal explosion of channels recently that fix up old diecast cars, many of these channels do great work, but there are so many and they do mostly the same thing. Your channel is so much broader IMO. I think the two issues regarding viewership is related to the RU-vid policy changes and the recent explosion of new channels, almost an oversaturation of the same basic thing. Appreciate what you do.
It is similar in the restoration of "objects" (a lot of them toys of some sort) a lot of the channels run together. I try to keep my stuff moving around with variety, however that is not really the best practice for keeping a certain niche viewer continuing to click through to the next video. Bottom line is I make the videos for me first and then if someone enjoys them after I enjoyed making them, that is just gravy to to me.
I think the issue is YT assuming he's directing his videos to children, and thereby facing the wrath of COPA. Maybe if he added some swear words to his descriptions? Like, about to fix up this mutha f***ing car like a mutha f***ing pro? I dunno 😕?
@@iambiggus Meh, he'd probably do better age restricting his videos then. But there isn't a perfect solution since RU-vid's shitty algorithm is the problem.
The only diecast channels I watch are: "Diecast Resurrection" who focuses on paint and customs, "Martie's Matchbox Makeovers" who restores forgotten and abused matchboxes, and of course baremetal, who does a mix of both of the other two.
I cant speak for anyone else but I prefer it qhen you use every single tool and technique at your disposal to make the best projects you can, rather than sticking to simple tools people have around. This is because I don't use your videos as guides, I just watch them for entertainment 🤷♂️👍 Cool project btw! Love the Fallout games. This is the time to go back to games, too! Not a lot else most of can do, after all ... ...
His toolset is like watching The New Yankee Workshop after watching The Woodwright's Shop at times. All that's missing is something with a laser on it to indicate the cut line and a bunch of tools hooked up to vacuums. And a reminder about the most important tool, safety glasses.
I personally use these for inspiration for my own hot wheels customs. But I'm making my own thing so it doesn't really bother me that he uses more exotic techniques than I came muster.
Hey brother, are you still around? I hope you can pull some positive vibes through all we have going on today. Stay safe and stay positive. Missing your content brother. Your videos help me pass time and learn through this mess of a world we live in now.
Hey, are you still doing the videos? You haven't uploaded for 2 months, not a sign of life. Some community post or a quick update video would be nice. Let us know if you plan on continuing the channel or if you dropped it.
Yes, only this was a 1957 model, where as in the movie, Christine was portrayed as a 1958 model. However, it doesn't really matter because they used both 57 and 58 models of Fury, Belvedere, etc. To build the many movie cars used in filming.
You always give yourself a hard time. I think, everyone likes your custom body works and ideas. I personally really enjoy every single video. Keep up the great work!
Amazing timing, I replayed Fallout the other day, and I'm currently playing through Fallout 2 again. About to have the Highwayman repaired, actually. Incredible work, as always!
No worries, I’ve played through the game dozens of times over the years, but thanks for the tip :) I’m avoiding parking it in New Reno until the postgame so I can unlock the grav-plates, too.
Just starting the video now. Been playing Fallout since the first one debuted in the 90's. I haven't hit the like button so fast in my life, let alone based on the thumbnail.
I'm not usually a big fan of weathering due to the 'too much' issue you mentioned, but in my opinion, this is one of the best if not THE best weathered car you've ever done! Love how it came out, especially the driver's side, looks very realistic. Keep up the awesome work!
Actually, you can purchase a large blower for the Chryslus in game, which you're right, doesn't make sense for a fusion battery powered car but still. Great custom, as usual! The glowing generator made for a very cool addition!
@@CAMSLAYER13 Actually the Highwayman didn't use a reactor like the Corvegas and Atomic V8's. The Highwayman was an all-electric car that could be charged with either Micro-Fusion Cells or Small Energy Cells. A blower can be installed by Ratch at the NCR that gave the car a speed bonus. Though I'm not sure how that works exactly
@@MozambiqueEnjoyer6097 its kinda hard to say since we don't really know what it does, assuming its providing cooling you could say they were serving the same purpose. A blower, or supercharger, on an actual car is an air compressor.
As everyone knows by what I've done on my channel I LOVE Gaslands cars, and I am a HUGE Fallout FrEaK! THIS is beyond kick-ass. We're talking a whole new level of kick-assness, lol. SUPER awesome job my friend. I'm SO gonne build something like this :)
Well that was nostalgic. Heard the music playing in my head as I watched this. Curiously I always figured the car had an airscoop, I guess it’s a battery block or a heatsink.
I would've masked off half a circle in the windshield on the driver's side, and then did a light coat of brown over it, to give the look of a filthy but wiped windshield
I know CV-19 has taken a toll on us all, but don't give up bro. Yes ad rev is down because advertisers have been ditching, but if you can (financially) continue forward. Don't let the others outdo you brother.
Maybe label them as "die-cast models" rather than "die-cast cars" Anything to make it seem drier and less youth-appropriate. Tough break man, people like you are the casualties in that big lawsuit. Google will probably get it sorted some day, but their only motivation right now is to show compliance, which means they're not thinking of guys like you at all.
RU-vid just doesn't promote enough of it's own youtubers. Seriously, this is some high quality craftsmanship and I would keep watching every new upload. For me, there wasn't much reason i ended up finding this channel. I think it was deciding to watch one of your videos, then staying for the rest. Hopefully you find the right thing to combat against youtubes system.
"discount version of This Old Tony" I'd can just hear him saying...."Gee....that's pretty cheap" His dry humour is the best! Thanks for the upload mate. A great recreation there!
I feel that The Chosen One would have happily driven your interpretation of their car. Looks cool as heck! Just needs a SuperMutant in the back, and a Cyberdog hanging out the window.
Beautiful build. Always loved the original Fallout games and your custom videos so this was definitely the best of both worlds. Hopefully you can keep doing them and RU-vid doesn't kill off your channel; this is the kind if content I'm here for.
It looks like Cristine caught the zombie virus and came back... Then attacked and consumed Dom's Ice Charger for parts. I like it, and the added glow effect is superb. Great custom! 👍
Fun fact: the Plymouth fury is also they design of the car seen in Stephen Kong’s novel: Christine, as well the film made by John carpenter based on the book. In total, around 7 cars were destroyed making the film, which is pretty sad considering how many were made makes it a very rare car
Very nicely done.. I've never worked with glass but found your video to be very informative and the glow in the dark just puts it over the top.. Thumbs up👍
I like watching these, I don’t consider them a waste of time and it’s also showing me ways I can do something if I don’t have a specific tool. Keep up the good work baremetal
Hoping you and yours are healthy haven't seen any new stuff for quite some time hoping you didn't come down with the c-19. Please stay healthy and hope to see some new stuff soon.
I actually thought it was cool to see how long it takes to actually paint with the airbrush , it is definitely something that shouldn’t be rushed ! I hope your channel overcome this difficult time :(( stay safe too! Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷!
While I have never played the game the car looks really neat! I enjoy you channel because you introduce a lot of new and advanced techniques.I always look forward to a tutorial from you as I know it will be quality content.
Your channel sets the standard, I was glad to see you posting again. Don’t let the algorithms stop your creativity. I’m looking forward to blown glass windshields in future vids...
I appreciate that you show mistakes made (not needing to cut out the trunk) as well as the final product. Stay safe. We're all in this together, just separate.
You, Martys Matchbox Makeovers and Sidewaysking75 are the absolute pinnacle of this art form. We need you guys making content as you guys do the really unusual and provide the entertainment factor. Please don't die a slow death.
ThisOldTony is the channel, that I can't get enough of. Definitely a favorite. You two are kind of have a similar "vibe". And thanks for the video, enjoyed it very much!
I just wanted to say thank you for all the work you put into your videos. I've been following your channel for a while now and I really appreciate the breadth of knowledge that you've shared. I've learned a lot of new techniques for model making that I hadn't even thought about using and I am always looking forward to a new video. The amount of effort you put into each video really makes your channel stand out! Thanks again!
Hope you stay safe too! I’m in quarantine and I watch your videos to pass the time! Love your channel! I will also always make sure to watch every one of your videos so you can get 1 extra view.
Love this kind of build, I really wish they had released smaller affordable diecasts of the Fallout cars, especially stuff like the Corvega Atomic V8s and the Nuka truck which did get a 1/18th release but is far above what I'm happy to pay for a single model and takes up too much room.
Well I hope the stupid algorithm doesn't ruin fun channels like yours and Marty's. It's so relaxing. I wonder if it's not time for youtube to get some competition from a newer channel sometimes.
it looks amazing! in the final shot that glow thingy really makes it look amazing. i wonder if you can apply that powder to the headlights to create the illusion of them working...
Saw the tweet from Oxhorn and im in no way skilles as you but i used to do similiar minded stuff, like you did in this video, for the tabletop game Warhammer 40.000 and i loved the attention to detail and the length you go through to get your results, which shows a great passion and love. I switched my fokus from miniatures to Fallout 4 settlement mode because of time and space related reasons. I am amazed what you did here and love the idea. If YT realy cuts content like yours down, than its a shame. Hopefully your channel recovers from this. Greetings from Germany.
