I watch a lot of prop videos where something looks okay in the thumbnail, but when you watch the vid it looks pretty bad. THIS is OUTSTANDING!!! I am 100% glad I clicked on this vid. You did a fantastic job and should be very proud of your work!
Spectacular! Don't be afraid to modify your build, this is Sci-Fi not a museum piece. Now go lift the hood of your car, notice that some things are new and shiny like an oil filter because they get replaced every 3000 miles, other things get extra rusty because road salt splashes up there repeatedly. The FX guys over weather SW props for dramatic effect. If you want the six inch effects, then leave some parts new looking. Also consider that some oxidation will be white and green due to the base metal being aluminum or copper respectively.

Nice job
I've been a prop builder for over a decade and your videos always teach me some new technique to use. Awesome work! Keep making these videos!
Utterly astounding craftmanship!!!! It's at times like these you realise the 'like' button just isn't enough!
If you would not have your 6 inch rule, I would not watch your making with these high interest. You are definitely one of the best creature builders here on you tube. You are a very skilled artist!
So much talent and hard work. Amazing. I actually prefer the after result of the baking soda reacting to the paint.
This is what youtube is meant for, amazing creators like you! you're work is just amazing
Wow, just outstanding. I think thats the best IG-12 I've seen for sure. So so cool. And your recommendation for getting a Foot Sander for prints is saving so much time prepping too. Thank you Michaela, you always make my files look amazing :)
The end part was beautiful, having the most loved child on the galaxy inside after all those months of hard work was the cherry on the cake’s top. He deserves his own video about all the process making him alive
These projects are just next level man! Fantastic jobs on these. I wish I had this kind of patience! This woman is low key building a robot army to take over Canada lol!
This is just great work and outstanding outcome! My mantra has always been “weathering tells the story”- and I’ve tried, well thought I’ve tried pretty much every style, techniques, methods, materials out there - crisscross combining all the above, while doing some heavy glancing at the weathering techniques used in the scale model community.. I just learned a few things watching this amazing build..
Printing that whole thing in 10 days was definitely an achievement. I've just spent the last 4 days printing a single Westar35 on my P1P. I definitely need to learn to airbrush though, your finish with that is awesome, especially the weathering. Going to have to look back through your videos as I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more of the droids that you've done as I've got an R5 sitting in my office that has been about 60% complete for the last 2 years, so this might give me the push I need to finish it!
That is insanely good 😱 The metal is totally convicing, and the piston parts of hydraulics look totally real Wowsers Well done on the build- it's amazing 👏
Great build!

Thank you!
I watched this and had to come back - infreakingcredible ❤
Wow! glad you popped up on my YT algorithm, absolutely outstanding build!
And to think I was impressed by my self designed soap holder😞 That was a lesson in patience and dedication for sure.
Outstanding Job! You have incredible painting and weathering talent.
this is really cool. i remember reading a book when i was a kid where an ig droid hacked the death star just before the rebels blew it up lol.
Omg this is wicked!!!
Really makes me want to go back and remake my IG-11 since I have better and more well tuned printers now. And your little sander has been a lifesaver for me!

Yay! Glad to hear the sander has worked out for you. I get it. I have a couple of projects that I went ahead and printed all of the pieces for and now I wish I hadn’t so that they could’ve been printed in a higher resolution/different filament to save me sanding time 😂
A fellow Canadian! Love it! Great work!
Absolutely gorgeous.
