    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.

    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!

    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 😂
