In a world where no one you might look up to survives scrutinizing (we are all, after all, humans with flaws), it's really nice to hear Nathan Fillian is actually a nice person. Thanks for the story about him!

Even if Adam's talking about something I'm not interested in, I still enjoy his enthusiasm.

I saw Nathan Fillion in the title and was magnetized to the video. He’s one of my favorite actors. I cry every time I remember that he could’ve been Nathan Drake but they chose Tom Holland.

Slug Biker should find prescription eyeglass goggle inserts for activities like skiing and motorcycling. They snap right into standard action sports goggles; such goggles could easily be used as the foundation to cosplay masks or the inserts could fit into other sorts of masks.

Regarding the glasses. Remember that if you're astigmatic, the rotation of the lens is also critical to get right.

Not a cosplayer, but Adam really got me interested in the process in which cosplayers design and execute their cosplay.

Adam is living the life i would love to live.

I loved your star lord costume I tried to replicate the Walkman and it came out pretty good

Thank you for all that you have done for science for the curious, doing what you love and always sharing it with like minds. The world needs more people like you.

when it comes to cosplay and glasses since i've worn them all my life and i too have an issue with contacts and being unable to wear them. i got the low profile sports versions the goggle type. you can pretty easily incorporate them into about 90% of the cosplays out there

OMG, I can’t believe I never considered using old glasses for a mask! You have changed Halloween for ever! 😳 Thank you!

This was great to listen to! :D Thank you

How about Jayne Cobb (If talkin about Firefly) cosplay with "Vera" and, of course, the HAT 😆

My favorite Firefly character is River, but there’s no arguing that Mal is an incredibly compelling character. Honestly just a smack in the face of a rare perfume, you know?

My opinion, as little as it matters, is that Adam breaking it down how it feels for most cosplayers when they get into character. That is my opinion.

Thanks, Adam for your insightful answers.

Adam's mention of his King Arthur armor is how I feel about my Revenge of the Sith Anakin costume. I would gladly just wear it all the time, but I think Jedi Knights might have a bit comfier clothes than Knights of the Round Table!

I think my favorite Ask Adam Savage videos are the ones that include a story about a celebrity that he's met. I could just imagine Nathan Fillion asking "Do you want to dance all night?" with that characteristic very straight face when asking something awkward or absurd. However I think my favorite story of Adam encountering another celebrity is the one of him meeting Robin Williams. Where Adam was working in the craft department and Robin Williams came over and struck up a conversation and then they got to talking about coked up dolphins because of a recent coast guard drug bust, etc. And Adam mentions at the point he was awe struck was then he realized that Robin Williams is doing comedy for him, alone. And what an amazingly friendly and lovely person he was. Adam's incredible skill set his really blessed him with a life of fantastic encounters.

I appreciate the tip about the glasses

Not long found your channel, loving the content

Yep, I built my pair of steam punk goggles with an old pair of lenses I kept from an old pair of glasses. I then put some reading lenses in pivots to drop down in front to accommodate the bifocals that I need now. I love them! Especially with the matching COVID mask.

That glasses idea is fantastic 👌

You could probably do a good Wash cosplay!

I would love to see you as Wash a la Firefly. You could totally pull this off.

I loved seeing you make the Kylo neck piece and Han’s belt and blaster 💖

You should try to do the Lego Serenity that was rejected from Lego Ideas (way too many bricks, highly unstable, and not “kid friendly” at the time, of course now they’re ok with “Lego for Adults” 🤷‍♂️ ) It’s a great build, and it’s fun to try to make it less unstable without cheating.

I cosplayed at a Halloween party as Adam Savage using an old leather jacket of my dad’s and a fedora that I bought at an outdoor gear store. The following year I planned to cosplay as Jamie, complete with bald cap, but the bald cap broke on me, so I went as ‘hairy’ Jamie, Jamie’s unknown twin.

I feel like if most people were to tell a story in which they were introduced to a celebrity BY a celebrity, it would sound snooty or like braggadocio. Adam's telling is just to use that to set up the more interesting part of the story, involving Nathan Fillion being a cool guy and Adam and his wife having a fun experience. Awesome!

Ok...A Doctor Octopus costume would be epic and also include your glasses. I also wear glasses 🤓 damn near the exact frame as yours.✝️🇺🇸🅰️🤙🏻

Hi Adam, nice video good luck in all your proyects

What a clever idea about putting old glasses lenses in helmets!

Please, please, please make a one day build for the painting of that Serenity model.

"Tend to not like playing villains" and I INSTANTLY imagine you as Ming the Merciless Ruler of the Universe!!!

now i feel the need to re-binge Firefly

Adam this is better then showing your tools I really like the subject too.

When I worked in a navy shipyard as a painter they made me a set of lenses in a wire holder that fit inside the fullface respiratory. Not sure of the name but it's a common use item.

*what fan made films based on actual movies have you seen (if any) that have impressed you the most? there is a one called Slice of Life that takes place within the Blade Runner Universe that is quite good and of course there is Prelude to Axanar*

If I may, I think the perfect one day build inspired by Firefly would be a full metal Vera replica, it is after all Jayne's very favourite gun

You should make the Mandalorian’s armor

There exist clip-in frames and glasses for firefighting scba masks, they should be pretty easy to adapt to a costume. I currently use them with Dräger Panorama Nova and fps 7000 (Not an Ad, just a search starting point). Not the most beautiful ones but they do the job. Also the frames are huge so they could maybe be big enough to be not visible behind some helmet parts

Optometrist here. Don#t forget, that also the distance from your eyes to the lens is crucial, once your cross the 4,0 dpt line. Minus or Plus makes no difference, but you should try to fit the lenses at the same distance from your eyes that they had in your glasses. And yes, i mean in mm exact!

Let's go!

I’m typically Batman with glasses 😂 although the Rubies Kylo Ren helmet fits BEAUTIFULLY with glasses on!

Adam, It is my understanding that the Gort costume from "The Day the Earth Stood Still" was actually two costumes, one which laced up the back and another white laced up the front. This was to preserve the illusion that Gort was seamless. Do you believe a seamless Gort costume could be achieved with modern techniques and materials?

Use zenni or 39$ glasses site to get larger lenses or other spares cheap if you don't have some laying around.

I wish to god somebody would do a good model of serenity. Maybe like 1/72 w lots of detail, and ready to light.

I have seen the video with the mark 2 Iron man titan suit , it s so cool . its bullet proof like the film one. Will you at some point paint the titan suit to make it look like the film modell? Or maybe paint it in your own style?

Love seeing Nathan cos-playing as Mal in 'Castle' - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zs1kZbipy6iafX0.html

If you don't have old glasses or your prescription has changed you can get glasses online for pretty cheap. I get mine at Zenni optical. Bonus to getting new ones, you can try and get a pair with the lens in the shape you want.

💙I love your video's 💙

Finish Raptor!!

"Everything tells a story" Yeeees! That's it! I'm about to release a new video about storytelling and I hear this! Hahaha great! Nice video, Adam.

From a devoted Fillionaire, thank you!

“The Power Of Cosplay Compels You”

Does anyone know if you can refresh a can of Barge Cement? My can is about 1/2 full... but it's getting THICK. I bet Adam knows a trick...

Can you imagine an apprenticeship with Adam Savage?

hi! what happened to the Velociraptor build? I can't find the videos anywhere

hi Adam!

You *don't* want to be Arthur?? But...but... It's *good* to be the King! 😆

That's what I call a vice admiral.

Have you ever built a tri-dimensional chess set from Star Trek? My friend, and I are wanting to build one, we're not sure how to go about it though.

Adam would you ever do Davey Jones from Pirites of the Canadian Adam

You could buy a pair of cheap frames + lenses from somewhere like Zenni to deconstruct and put in your cosplays. $15-25 for the ability to see in your costumes doesn’t seem so bad haha

adam needs to make a mandalorian costume

"...Wil Wheaton introduced us." In ANY other story, THAT would be the story.

Hi Adam, I don't know if you read these comments, but I was wondering if you ever answer questions here on youtube? Because I have one... Would you take more pride in making something original or recreating something precisely that has already been made? Regardless, thank you for being an inspiration.

I can totally sympathize. I'm blind as a rock without my glasses, only I'd need a current prescription to pull that trick off.

You are part of my childhood, greatings from argentina uwuwuuwuw

The day Wil Wheaton introduced Adam Savage to Nathan Fillion... Now there's a Geek-gasm!

Adam should look at online glasses sellers like zenni optical. You can get glasses for as cheap as 9 bucks, so incorporating glasses into cosplay doesn't have to break the bank... Also just getting glasses period doesn't have to.

Hello Adam

10:13 "wait right there" - like I'm going to leave in the middle of your video?

Hi everybody

Love Nathan Fillion, he is my number one gay celeb crush; him and NPH. Both are super handsome and seem just amazingly cool people.

Hello 👋

Whether you want to do it or not, you would make a decent Jayne Cobb.

Is this a reupload?

This may be stupid but wouldn’t a dry erase pen work better than a sharpie?

I have corrective lenses in my VR headset

YOU.MUST.BUILD.PAINT.SERENITY!!!!

WITHIN FIVE MINUTES LETS GOOOO

Hi

I did not know plastic prescription lenses were a thing

Adam, you're a weird guy ... ... Don't ever change. :D

What is going on with The Martian suit?

Get gas mask inserts in your prescription. Those fit in a lot of masks.

I definitely understand wanting to be in a universe. Personally when it comes to a future where space travel is common. Both Star Wars and Star Trek are good and I like both for what they are, I feel that although it's never been translated to film David Webber's books make The Honorverse feel like it's based more in reality atleast where space travel is concerned. Ships have gravity plating and can't stop on a dime. The only real ranged weapons are missles with short life Xray lasers that are powered by nuclear reactor bombs. Close in weapons are ultra powerful Xray lasers that use artificial gravity to form the lens so are called Grazers. Defensive armaments are small milssles that like the ships use an artificial gravity fields for insane acceleration rates to destroy incoming missles solely with said gravity field an high powered lasers for close in point defense to destroy or incapacitate missles. The ships are enormous compared to a wet navy. Armor is meters thick and the powerful Xray lasers of missles a the Grazers don't burn holes they rip into ships the effect is instantaneous and explosive. A whole deck is dedicated to the computers that control the ships and also provide fire control solutions for both offensive and defensive weaponry. If you can't tell I very much want to see a movie franchise based on this universe. I would like to see the main protagonist of the universe but casting her might be a problem. But any movie based there and the story of the solar system and it's space navy would still be very acceptable without her.

Anyone else having sound issues here?

All that I have to say with Admiral Ackbar in the background - "IT'S A TRAP!" Apologies...

I have a couple of suggestions about the issues with your eyesight. Get your eyes fixed even if you still need corrective lenses part of the time, you won't regret it and find someone who makes custom lenses to fit your costumes. Love the stories that go along with the builds.

Ah, Will Wheaton, all great stories start with Will Wheaton.

Is Kylo Ren a villain?

you made as star lord costume when was that

He looks like he has a health bar over his head lol

I was wondering about the raptor project. I went to look for them and they are all gone. Does anyone know why, it was/is a really awesome project and I would really like to see the finished work. I hope that they weren't removed or deleted for some reason. If anyone knows what is happening could you please comment and let me know. Sorry if this is annoying or if it was already mentioned.

Adam Savage, Nathan Fillion, and Will Wheaton!!! That’s my type of party. Invite Kari, and I’m in heaven!!!

Is it just me or is the camera being weird? Looks a bit blurry

Johnny Depp was born to play Jack Sparrow.

I sen you on TV
