Nice video. There was actually a Bela Lugosi Dracula. I didn't think from what I could tell the likeness was good. Great model

I bought my aluminum parts from Mike Reader.

I love how the setting switch on the gun says “KILL”. An Alphan needs things spelled out.

Would be cool to have real video on the monitor with appropriate scenes from the show, even those trees from season 2.

Another great build journey to follow you on. What paint/color did you use for the comlock main body?

I watched this vid and immediately channeled Jack Nicholson in batman "Where does he get those wonderful toys?” 😂👍👏

good memories of Space1999, remember my dad getting the ship airfix kit when i was very young ( think he did most of the work building it lol) also had the toy stun gun too. love your Commlock model looks awesome :D say i REALLY enjoy ALL of your vids. seriously do. PS. ive been to evans designs to get some nice LED kits to ship to the UK here and i never noticed before but they do some extremely minute pico chips and even smaller "z" chips that are smaller than 1mm fascinating how they can make them that small.... i'm going to add a few to my Dr Who console diorama and other things me thinks 😁you should give them a go. take care & look forward to the next project x

Amazing! Fantastic video!

Phil. This is not an "old repop". This is ALL NEW tool from round 2. It was released in 2021.

Phil my eyesight is terrible, I use a digital microscope to do really fine detail work, I have a 10" one that I either look at or throw up onto one of my monitors. edit to say Lou's Vinyl sounds like a record shop.

You did a fantastic job Phil and it looks gorgeous, but me been me I'm a nerd on space 1999 !! your numbers are not offset sorry it's just how my mind works.👍 again sorry.

Just built this. Added sound effects on each button from my favourite episodes. Sadly never got the animated screen. Though put it on a relay circuit to light when the button is pressed for as long as the sound effect lasts. Loved Mike's metal parts. Really finishes it off.

I'm sure I recognize some of those sounds from Alien as well Phil, like the alien distress signal and the sound of mother thinking.

This kit is literally only a few years old, it definitely not a reissue of any kind.

What would be very funny is on your next build of this would be to have a transparency made of Lou so it would look like your talking to him on the commlock.

Such an awesome classic show! I missed it, having not been born yet, but kept hearing whispers. If you haven’t looked it up, you should! It has a vintage retro sci-fi feel all its own, and compares Very Well to other shows IMO! I Love Techy props! Nice work!

Truly excited to see you build this amazing kit!

Regarding the Columbia accident: A piece of foam tile came off the fuel tank and struck one of the leading edges of a wing causing a large hole in it.

Disruptors. Klingons use disruptors.

A bold choice! And a unique execution! I think the lighting was a necessary highlight, Especially for those who may not know the reference straight away. I might have even pushed for a pulsing version to be even more overt! I was surprised to see the end result so clean and somehow unbelievable in appearance, but it does mesh well with the 'clean cut' aesthetic of its time. Still, I am left wondering what sort of textural effect was missed by not hitting the bandages with at least the minimum of a wash.

that is phenominal phil and absolutely fabulous well done. cant wait to see your new star ace medusa

Every detail is really well done-- scale issues aside... (though I wonder if a 3D Quint is not available in this post Broadway Show era-- ?). The collaboration with Mr. Fink is well worth the effort. I agree with most of your decisions about using lighter colors on the inner shark. Here's where I have to get picky. It can't all be rosebuds strewn in moonbeams... I find the boxy top o' the water and under the water to be interesting but still odd. What I think that decision did was to lead down the wrong path for the "eating Quint" angle. What I don't "see" and no matter what you say about that's how they actually shot the scene-- the chomped ship set doesn't look right 5 feet off the water. That "dock" or whatever it's supposed to be-- doesn't sit in the water. It's just there. Nothing supports it from below. So it looks odd. And there it is-- "odd!" In the stills you showed, the set looks awash with water. At the waterline and not up in the air. Now-- you may say, well, that particular shot in the movie *was* indeed shot on a dock, elevated in the air. Yes, but we are seeing the moment in time "smeared" if you will, over a short length of time. The overall impression is of the shark attacking the back of the boat. Which, with Quint's feet in water was... in the water. Now-- if you have a set shot where the shark is airborne out of the water and the boat is up there with him-- show us! Mind you, this is to take nothing away from the total effect. Nor the level of skill at work here-- water effects are terrific, the color pallets of the shark and boat are similarly terrific. Even with my carping (--he said "CARPing"!!!) the display is impressive. I do like the 10K inkie -- there's one pic where that wash of light really pops the shark. I do suggest the clapper board be moved down to one side. Credit is great but that thing's huge.

FABULOUS!! We love it! 👏🏻 Thank you for the kind words….much much appreciated!

We're all knuckleheads in this hobby; just ask our spouses! 😂

The only model of Jaws i haven't seen is the orca in a bottle withJaws stalking below the waves.

a really stunning build Phil they all were, good job it's not a competition because it would be a draw, I don't think it would have been Diesel fuel in the tanks Phil, probably just water

Fantastic! Next Level Build!

Impressive, most impressive!

Let’s take a moment to reflect on Boyd Crompton from Trek Works. Like Sprueverse, another motivating force with his inspirational and knowledgeable videos for the modeling community. He passed away last night from cancer.

Looks terrific. The next challenge can be scratch build an entire Amity Island!

High Altitude Hobbies stock Flory clay washes Phil.

Looks good even with Quint being off scale. It makes it look like a man being attacked by a real shark rather than a movie monster. Of course a real shark would never sink the back end of the Orca. But it makes a cool looking project.

The other Jaws kit represented the anatomy of a real shark not Bruce.

The fig looks out of scale. He's too big. The shark in Jaws was a huge shark and Quint would have been swallowed whole if he hadn't been bit into on the way down.

Beautiful

Hi Phil, just an incredible perspective and build. It was so great you included all of the references from the book during the build. And the "less is more" cinematography, as well as the incredible engineering that went into the Bruce shark animated prop. No wonder it had some mechanical issues being quite complex. A great piece that helps explain the production aspect of the move.🙂

Really excellent work you've done here. Love the whole diorama! The water looks fantastic. You've recreated this tense moment in the film superbly!

Hey, Phil! I know I’m commenting on a video from a few years back, but I wanna tell you that I am currently working on my own full scale life size eighth doctor tardis console. I would love to get in contact with you to show you some pictures , so if you would be interested I would be very happy! Also I love your work on the Doctor Who TV movie, it is probably one of my favorite movies ever!

The poor man is running out of room in his house and he builds something this big? he he... Nice project.

Amazing Final!!! thoughts from Earth...lol

Flory's clay washes are available from an American distributer now.

That’s a really inventive design Phil. Most people might have reached for the resin pour but I love the underwater effect you’ve achieved. I’ve got my Bruce in order and hopefully not too long to wait now. I also hope it makes it to the uk in the right amount of pieces! Great job. I admired Uncle Lou’s bravery in submerging the mouth but for me you have to display those teeth!

Fantastic model Phil , great build , now heading over to Lou then Wayne to check out there builds 👍👍

Very good sir 👍.

Ah yes… that famous moment when Quinn fights a Regular-Sized shark! There’s No Way he could Ever be swallowed! I bet that would have greatly helped the positioning issue! Nice work though…

you can't keep four barrels below the water, not 4 barrels you can't... Beee-yuuu-ti-ful work, my friend

Need teeth on the Clapper board...lol

Amazing build 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Absolutely beautiful and this was definitely thinking outside of the box. The execution and final result are exquisite

Love the video, Philip! Love the content on your channel! Keep up the good work👍
