I really appreciate the. Builds that incorporate off the shelf parts over 100% 3D printed parts, makes good use of ready made bits instead of waiting on a printer.
You never cease to amaze me with how you take ordinary things to create “real” props like this. The build is terrific and the weathering is superb. Awesome video!
Bro! Your work is amazing and your videos with links and templates really set you apart from others. Thank you for brining us together with your imagination and passion.
Derek, if you don't already, you should start doing Star Wars conventions - bring your props to show and advertise the website. Fans would LOVE to see your creations in person. Heck, you could lead a prop building panel.
Bro that is so smart for the eye. Ive been racking my brain how to make the eye but i remember as a kid there used to be bouncy balls that looked like that eye ball. Bravo bro this came out amazing.
Looks fantastic! One thing I might have missed and was curious about - does the "neck" extend out using the nested PVC pipes? Even if it has to be done manually? Cool either way, but nested pipes like this have given me an idea how to maybe solve a similar problem elsewhere...

This turned out beautifully! The hairspray trick really does make the aging appear very realistic.
It really does. It's one of my favorites that doesn't get used as much as I'd like.
The weathering is outstanding love this technique fantastic build !!!
I’ve always loved these droids. Great job.
Same here! Thanks!
Magnificent job! I use your hairspray trick all the time and it works wonders!
Glad you like it! It's one of my favorite tricks.
Bravo sir!! Love this build!
Thanks dude!
I never miss a van oaks video

Thanks, I really appreciate the kind words!
Nearly solicitor ready- can’t wait to see the next evolution!
This turned out so great! And the way you did it is pretty genius.
Thanks! It was a fun build.

I’d love to. Maybe in the new year!
Yep, gonna make one for my office next year :)

I can’t take credit for it. I read about it in an old thread on the Replica Prop Forum. But I agree, it’s really clever.
Inspired choice to make the texture for the “eye”. Seems so simple after seeing it but I know I’d be stumped for weeks trying to figure that
I can’t take credit for it. It was suggested by GoldenArmor.com. Definitely a great approach.
I been wanting to build this guy for years. I have 3D model just need to print it
Looks fantastic!

It does not. I figured a static version works best for my space and I’m not all that technically inclined. So a fixed length is what I went with.
Good stuff! My son and I enjoyed the build! Where’d you find that C3PO voice? Been needing to find one for an upcoming vid 🤔
Thanks! I found a C-3PO voice generator online for free.
@@VanOaksProps nice! I’ll have to take a look around
