Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Painting The HasLab Razor Crest!

Рет қаралды 421,591

2 жыл бұрын

Adam and Norm examine the HasLab Razor Crest playset and spend the day experimenting with different types of paint finishing to add extra layers of detail to this beautiful model. From adding brown rust to a random selection of panels to specular highlighting, we turn The Mandalorian's ship into a canvas for freeform weathering using our favorite paints. Here's how even a little bit of work can transform plastic into battle-worn steel or carbonite. This is just the beginning of our fun with this model!

The shot with Adam using the rub and buff on the engine interior is just spectacular. To see a well painted toy turn into a really well painted toy, in seconds, and that’s before the wash and rust. And the confidence he has to just do it all at the same time. I would take a day to just do that one part.

He's a fan of the STUFF in Star Wars, but seems mostly a casual fan of the films themselves. Just because he worked on it doesn't mean he's a super-fan. Adam is more an ILM fan than a fan of the films themselves.

I love the design of this ship. It's one of my favorite ships from any franchise. I hate to say it, but it's neck and neck with the falcon at this point. And, that has to be one of the best sculpts for a toy I've ever seen. That's the ship I want to fly around in. Park it and camp out somewhere for a while. It's like they looked at the ship from Space Balls and said, _Ya know what? They were kind of on to something there with the flying space Winnebago. Let's show 'em what that would actually look like, but, let's make it an AirStream._

Not sure if this has already been mentioned but Spaz Stix is not meant to be applied as a primary. Like AllClad metalizers it fleas better when applied in very light coats over a high gloss black base. Usually to about 80% opacity. It’s how many of us do our Mando helmets and beskar armor. Also. Need ti spray at very low pressure. Around 8-10 psi.
