I made another ship from scratch and it's bigger and better than ever! It's made in the style of the Tech army from the new tabletop war game called Full Spectrum Dominance.

Why is it so cold in your house or studio? Yikes! I sure do like that Panel Line Scorer, I need one! 0.2 styrene? Man, that's crazy thin! To test colors I take a picture of my model and then import it into Photoshop and try different color schemes in there. It's super effective. The wings are fantastic. Excellent work BP, this came out great!

@BPCustomCreations Жыл бұрын

The reason it's cold is because Japan 😂 no insulation and no central HVAC. It doesn't help that my house is really old. I've tried the photoahop thing but for some reason I have to put the paint on the model before it makes sense to my brain. Thanks for watching T-Nu! 😁👍

Excellent job, either the build and the paint. There are on the market some self-adhesive sheets, printing them and then glueing on plasticard could semplify your works.

What a wicked cool design for a spaceship! The only thing that bugs me is not knowing the scale/size for this ship. Is this a small drone (hence the iris/optics on the front), a starfighter (say x-wing size) or a large battle cruiser (Enterprise/Star Destroyer)?? The thing is that your original design could work for all of the above. I love all of the detailing you did, from the underwing greeblies to the scribed panel lines and layers on the wings. It is so graceful I'm sure this could actually fly! The handmade tubes along the sides look like the perfect spot for some 3-d printed ones. Kudos for making them from scratch. Awesome job sir, I love this design so much that I may have to attempt making my own version. Excellent video by the way. Keep on keeping on!!

@encouragingthings Жыл бұрын

Great scratch build! Wonderful attention to detail. I always get so nervous working with styrene because I'm never certain it's going to break in the right place. Maybe a scoring tool is right for me..?

@BPCustomCreations Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Styrene shouldn't be that hard to snap along a score line. If you have had problems with it it might not be scored deep enough. 1mm sheet for example most likely needs a few passes with a cutting knife before it's ready to snap. If you are forcing it too much you need to cut deeper first. The P cutter that I talk about in the video digs out a lot of material but can be less precise depending on what you want to do.

@bigbrawler3080 Жыл бұрын

Plasticard hasn't been a medium for me really, but I may play around with it for some projects. Where did you get the bender tool?

@bigbrawler3080 Жыл бұрын

Or is it just a hunk of wood you're bending heated plasticard and foam around?

@BPCustomCreations Жыл бұрын

When I started using plasticard it felt like magic. The tool comment was kind of a joke. Cut Transform Glue is a channel on KZfaq that does a lot of scratch building and he made one in a video. It's just two blocks of wood screwed together with small spacers in between that allow you to bend long pieces uniformly along a scored line.
