It's always really inspiring to see how your projects evolve and how much work goes into detailing and form balance.Thank you Adam for showing us that old school free form model making is still alive and kicking. It's art like this coming from a small Van Nuys warehouse in 1975 that made such an impression on many generations of movie goers. It does make me want to start a small project, with no initial concept art or CAD draft and see where it lands me. Thank you for this.
Apart from films like Star Wars, I think the first movie that really had me awe inspired with the models was Close Encounters of The Third Kind... I must have been about 10 years old when I first saw it aired on British television maybe in 81 or 82. It was one of my favourite movies for a long time in terms of the look of the space ships. Still love it to this day. I think that's why I enjoy your style so much, because of all the intricate details of your models, as well as the mix of symmetry and asymmetry. They're great to look at from any angle.
Thank you for your kind comments. My model making started after watching the grand father of all modern sci fi cinema 2001 a space Odyssey There would be no starwars or close encounters without that ground breaking film
Recently found your channel and watched through all your videos. Your work with the larger scale builds (ornithopter, mechs, speeders, etc.) really speaks to me. They have a level of detail and an aesthetic that I find especially appealing. Hope you continue to work on those and similar projects!
Reinforce the stand Rods use JB Weld Steel Epoxy Putty. Good stuff real strong Cures 4 mins so you have work fast. You can kneaded with your Fingers. Wear Disposable Glue or rub Baby Powder into you Hands
Nice looking projects in the making there. Concerning the nerf that you might turn in to a time machine you could also remove the grip, stand it on end and turn it into an industrial chimney/ tower and place some 28-32 mm figures with it for a diorama. Something Blade Runner inspired perhaps. Just a thought. Excellent work Adam.
I feel you there I begin to lose interest. And put them project aside. Start another one. And finish up the first one. When I start to lose interest in the second or 3 . But itvall get completed. Try making smaller 1/32 Tank or Military type Vechile
Yeah...maybe sixty bucks. The sword matters but it's the hand that wields it. You can glue a bunch of tank parts on a Paw Patrol submarine but if you want people to believe it's an alien dropship you need some skills.
Skills are important agreed and the same goes for buying an expensive kit. If you don't have the basic skills, even a top of the range kit will look crap
