I don’t remember where I saw this , (think it was Kaumicosplay) that used oil paint instead of acrylic paint for weathering, which gives you more time to weather you’re prop then acrylics.

Very amazing guys and gals!

Stunning final result. Hope there're more big builds like this one in the near future.

Adam dressed his employer (who is constantly checking in on his progress) in the ‘roadworker orange’ suit while he got the white one, had “get back to work” blasting in his ears at regular intervals and made him pose with a litterpicker claw. This was definitely a power move and I’m so impressed. Edit: he also literally put a beacon on it to “keep an eye on the status of his workers”

Makes you wish the suits were used in more than just a little advertisement. They need to be on a big screen, in a theatre. They're so perfect, but feel so underused.

I don't have as much an aversion to clean costumes as Adam does, but the weathering on the white suit, and the way it brought out the mesh in the beta-substitute cloth, REALLY sold it as something worn on the moon. Fantastic build, and it kind of makes me want to build one - other than a "contagion" hazmat suit, it's about the only thing I'd wear going to a con right now. I'm thinking there's a way to achieve some of the look (say, just the right jumpsuit, with strategic padding) that could be modded to attach to a backpack to get a similar effect without god-tier making skills.

Kevin and Adam are like two grown up kids. It's hilarious seeing them together and how stoked they are about the suits.

I like how Kevin starts channeling Thomas Jane (Detective Miller from _The Expanse_ ) as soon as he puts the suit on.

I love how Adam's face and beard is getting weathered by the dust during the process as well.

When you did the king Arthur Medieval suit with Terry English i never thought you could outdo that series, oh boy was a wrong, this build has being epic to watch, and such an inspiration too

7:03 as a cellist I love that you synchronized the music with that clock / metronome thingy in the back of the frame! the time-lapse really feels connected to the "reality". Editor, GREAT JOB!

This build is So Good! There was a pretty big jump in detail between eps 3 and 4 in this series. A loooooooong cut of the entire process for those of us who run build videos like others run Spotify would be greatly appreciated. 💖

This is one of his BEST builds to date, gonna watch it over again, the Samaritan build was amazing but this one, off the hook

I just used charcoal powder to weather a few pieces for my latest cosplay. I love to 'discover' that solutions I come up with are already a thing. Makes me feel I'm on the right track!

I seriously would looove to watch a space movie with suits designed by Adam Savage

Norm’s photos with the good camera are amazing, what an incredible result!

It reminds me of the song, “Rocketman” and how space isn’t an adventure, it’s just a job. I really want to see you do a series of shorts about a couple of blue-collar workers on the moon just trying to get the their jobs done and the weird business-as-usual, workday stuff that happens.

I know these are older videos. But in my opinion, these are some of Adam's best work. The suits look like you could do a space walk. Really nice job. Thanks for taking us along 👍.

Loved seeing Adam and Kevin suit each other up! It felt just like watching a work crew gear up for a job.

Adam you have perfected the art of playing dress-up. Your work is absolutely incredible, as always.

4:38 - You maybe "believe it's the case", but it's actually *exactly the other way around.* Using blue reduces the saturation without making it as dark (i.e., pulls it towards _grey,_ instead of pulling it towards dark orange, a.k.a. brown). So you are indeed totally wrong about that. But you're forgiven. ;-)

That's what I was thinking too, at least for where the paint goes over the fabric. I was wondering though, since they are contrasting colours, would it create the impression of the orange being more bold next to the blue paint? Or would the shift towards grey due to the blue paint on the orange make the orange appear less vibrant?

@adammcinnes5615

I just did a quick look at some examples of mixing blue and orange paint, which produces a brown colour. I wonder what effect might this have on painting blue paint on orange fabric compared to mixing orange and brown paint.

@RFC-3514

@@adammcinnes5615 - To get the contrasting effect you'd need to use enough blue to make some parts actually _look_ blue (i.e., by completely covering the orange in those areas), which I don't think was what Adam was trying to do, he was just trying to make the orange look dirty / worn. Also, mixing blue and orange will produce "brown" (if you use dark blue) in the sense that it darkens the orange, but the key difference (compared to using black) is that it will produce a less saturated (i.e., greyer) brown. Which is a good thing if you're trying to make it look dusty.

Smiling all the way through this! Looks like those two were preparing for a space walk. Is Adams cave actually in orbit 250 miles above the surface of the earth? It's all beginning to make sense now.

It's always so fascinating to see the weathering process, it's really like it's own art form

This is absolutely amazing! I'm so jealous. One tip I've learned through Historical Reenactment and used through cosplay, for weight distribution on the body, split the weight of the suit between the shoulders and hips. You'll be so much more comfortable over extended periods of time when you do this and your back will thank you. It also helps you keep balanced better instead of being top heavy which improves mobility.

The resting squat is the best part about the suites features.

Adam is a true talent when it comes to creation. I can’t believe how amazing those suits look. What I wouldn’t give to be able to think up and complete a project like this from start to finish. I know he had help but to think that he came up with all the design (with help from real world examples) is just stunning. Fantastic job Adam and congrats on your new suits! I know he will cherish them for the rest of his life.

Been so looking forward to this! Gutted it's finally complete, I could watch hours more! :)

With the shop as the backdrop for the photos it looks like it could be a steampunk movie.

Ahhh so cool 2 see Kevin with Adam. AOTS FOREVER!!!!

The pic where you guys are playing chess, definitely looks like a movie scene. Lol. Sorta tells a story, two astronauts stranded on a planet, just killing time.

Wow.. that New York Soot made all the difference!

Little mars dust, little moon dust, little bit of grease from working on the spaceship and rover…. Perhaps a little alien blood. Cool!

That's our Adam, getting dirty and loving it!

god i love this suit design, is perfectly clunky while not looking dumb, your a creative mastermind.

This build was amazing. Thank you so much for this epic project. I love these longer format, multiple video builds.

I love just watching Adam work on things in real time with no music. It is so relaxing and interesting to see his process. It motivates me to work on my own projects.

I think it's fun to learn all these tips and tricks from a professional. Love watching you work Adam, I have been a fan since Mythbusters.

Theses suits have stuck me as odd and I could never say why. But I just realized it. They look old but also futuristic, to me anyhow. It looks like the suit from a 80s scifi movie that was set in 2100 or something

That’s the smartest oxymoron I’ve ever heard.

I would love to see pictures of these suits walking down the street on a really foggy night... Dammit, now I want a space suit!

Those suits look amazingggg. And the back hatch you enter through looks like a lot of fun!

The pictures give me a very pleasant vibe of Ron Cobb meets Moebius meets Otomo. The feel of "real life in space", like Space janitors or something like that. Brilliant!

As you were weathering it made me think. If these really are future spacesuits, I’d guess NASA would eventually move to a darker color fabric to avoid the overly dirty look of their suits.

@two-face1041

The only reason they don’t go with the darker colors is because it would heat up the suit

I am really loving this Big Build set and its great to see Adam bringing the people that help him in to shot and getting them to explain what they did. A lot of hosts would want the show to be all about them but Adam just loves to share the limelight with everyone and is always so happy to see what they can do its one of the things that makes me watch any show he is in.

Fantastic work. It was really awesome to see the whole design/implementation of a prop suit. Really blown away that this only took a month.

This was a fantastic series! Every episode sent me back to the short so how the new additions looked on the final product. I hope to see these suits other places in the future.

Simply AWESOME!! I see nothing but mind and talent!!

This was the best series of One day builds ever! Just... blown away what you were able to achieve both yourself, and as a team. Excellent content as always, thank you Adam!

This series was absolutely amazing to watch

Hey Adam, I must admit I'm quite impressed with what you've done here! I work for a spacesuit company in New York and we make a lot of parts for the xEMU as well as some EVAs of our own. It's been a treat watching you struggle with a lot of the same issues we encounter. I originally clicked on this video to see how you tackled the visor blowing as it is a difficult process to get consistently right (which explains why you outsourced it), but I was captivated by your whole build. Also, I understand your struggle with the brief and we share a similar sentiment, though I must say you missed a critical part. There is a pivot point on each side of the brief that allows for a forward and backward motion (with stoppers) and allows for greater mobility. That being said, I feel it was the right move to skip over that part of the project. Again nice work, you've definitely given me some design points to think about. Thank you for sharing your work!

After having watched all four episodes, I am TRULY impressed beyond impressed! Adam's sheer JOY in the final result was soo much fun to watch!

Followed all the build videos and this has to be the most wonderful build I've seen on tested. Congratulations to the whole build team and tested crew...to infinity and beyond.

Adam you have truly out done your self. This is perfect for shopping. No worries about covid with those extraordinary suits.

Well done Adam ... maybe now you will stop doubting yourself !

These suits look great in the brand new look but when Adam puts on the weathering they really become a thing. It never ceases to amaze me when he does this. Everything looks better. Good job👍😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇳🇱

Amazing build. Loved it.. The craftmanship, and the attention to details is crazy.. Thanks guys.. 😊

Thanks for sharing your time and experience.

These suits are seriously epic. Everything you do just inspires me. You’re such a humble guy and I can only speak for myself, thank you for sharing what your skills and insights. 👍

That was excellent to watch. Great job by everyone. I was as excited as Adam with every little add-on. Always amazes me when an idea in someones head becomes a real life thing that you can phisically see what they were thinking.

This series was amazing. This is clearly a humongous effort, but I feel like undertaking a similar project of my own someday is infinitely more approachable after having watched this.

Just an amazing build from start to finish!

this is one of the coolest things you have done in a while , wasn't sure how they would look until you tried them at the end very awesome suit would be cool to see these in person hehe

Amazing job Adam, thanks for documenting the process :D

Looks like another project where "One Day Builds meant more that you'd been dreaming that One Day you'd fulfill the dream of completing the project. ❤️ Beautiful work as always! You're inspiring!

Adam, living his BEST life! Love it!

Amazing choice of paint. Love that line since it launched

loved following along, final result is amazing. please, keep on keeping on

I loved every episode in this series. So inspirational

The suits turned out GREAT!!! Weathering techniques are always an interest to me when I make Halloween props. I didn't know the concept of using 3 colors, but intuitively when I weathered a fence for my display I used 3 colors... and to hear YOU say 3 colors was the magic was so confirming! The pounce bags is a new thing, and I like the technique of using your phone (camera) to check how it looks... Thanks for the tips!

Im so sad this build is over. From the crazy beginning of a lot of unknowns to watching kev and adam try on the suits and goof around with big ol smiles. Just awesome!

The design aspect of the entry stairs and the suit dock is as amazing as the suits themselves

"back to work"! Omg that's the funniest thing I've ever heard him say! 😂

Congratulations on an absolutely fabulous build. They are incredible.

That last photo, Chess Game, nailed it

This has to be Adams greatest work that i have watched. Well done Adam and team. Now i want to try and build my own.

All I can say is WOW what absurd and amazing series!!! Thanks

Finally sat down to finish the last 2 parts of this build and wow! Nice work Adam and team! You all are such inspirational figures in so many of our lives! Keep it up! I love the maker community, 2022 is gonna be the year I finally start building my own costumes.

The pose with the gripper stick is a hoot. I could actually see that in a movie. "You touch it." "I ain't gonna touch it." "Hold on, I got something for this..."

The suits look amazing. The one thing I think I would do differently would be to add reflective safety strips.

Adam has really had the coolest job forever

Adam has inspired my boost to up the ante on my projects and get back into the maker field. I recently upgraded my soldering station and can't wait to use it. Also came across those LED toggles you had on the suits. Cant wait to find a project to use them on!!

If you're going for that much grunge, the wear points should reflect a similar level of use. Maybe take some 40-grit to the knee and elbow areas and add a bit more grunge to those areas. Also add some more to the areas around switches, connectors, flaps, etc.

Watching Adam use a (pounce?) bag is like watching a painter or sculptor create ❤️ Loved this long build. More please 🙂

Yay, weathering! This is what I’ve been waiting for!

Myth busters was my childhood, G4 was my childhood. if you told me that one day they would overlap, I wouldn't have believed you.

The last photo of the chess game was gorgeous.
