    As someone that grew up around heavy machinery (dad is a mechanic), I love the color choice here because it really reminds me of a piece of John Deere construction equipment. And I'm pretty sure that in a dystopian setting, John Deere would absolutely get into the robot game. It's not nearly as big a step as one would think, since robots would be used a lot in construction and such.

    I love aging and weathering. Whenever I watch someone build a prop or a model, I'm always especially looking forward to the weathering. With Adam, it's extra interesting because he describes his thought process, and why he's doing what he's doing, what he's imagining happened to result in this particular damage or wear.

  • @matthewosborne8384

    I love watching these ODB. Especially the model making ones. I have been painting minis since '92 and I am learning new paint techniques. Also I never thought to use styrene rods for pins for plastic kits, especially where the pin becomes a feature and not just a structural element. . I am a huge dry brusher and build up from a base coat with tiny layers that may even hit just a few links of chain, etc. I am def adding some Cue tips to my brush set.

And thank you Tested for continuing to showcase amazing values.

    One really handy thing Evergreen puts out is the "Odds and Ends" packs. These are basically a half pound of whatever sheet styrene scraps they have laying around. There's several sheets, sometimes textured ones like tiles/sidewalk or corrugated sheets. Some sheets are usually colored or clear, and it comes with various rods in different profiles. Every pack is different, but there's a lot of neat stuff in there.

    I love my GKR that came with the game but this is why Adam is the master, his GKR is amazing! Adam must design his own boardgame. Kickstart it today and I'll back it!

    10:20: Did Adam just channel Bob Ross?

  • @Standbackforscience
    @Standbackforscience 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know the other guys on this channel put a lot of effort into this, and I suspect they're doing most of heavy lifting behind the scenes to keep the channel going, but I just prefer Adam's stuff. He's so chill and easy to watch.

    Are spray paint things like that pretty accessible/affordable? I feel like I'd mess with models a lot more if that first layer of paint wasn't 10,000 brush strokes.

    • @jimmygrey6848
      @jimmygrey6848 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Do you mean an airbrush? If so, you should be able to find a good starter one pretty cheaply. You'll need a small air compressor or cans of compressed air though.

    • @AbbreviatedReviews
      @AbbreviatedReviews 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hm, would a compressor small enough for that sort of application still be as loud as a normal air compressor? Or I mean just loud in general? I assume it wouldn't be AS loud.

    • @jimmygrey6848
      @jimmygrey6848 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      You can get some pretty small ones that would definitely be quieter than a general air compressor. You dont have to have the compressor running while you paint, only need to turn it on to fill the tank but the smaller you go though the more likely you are to need to refill the tank constantly while using it, at least with a bigger one or moderately sized one you can turn it on, let it fill and then a full tank should be more than enough to do all your small airbrushing needs. Perhaps you could even take it outside while the compressor is on and bring it in to your painting area once the air tank is at capacity.

      spray cans easy to find ... especially in white and black .... spray guns ... mostly art type shops and similar places ... they can be cheap and they can be very expensive ... even ebay and craigs list or kijjiji would have them from time to time .... great way to save money and get a half way decent one and find out if you can learn to use it well enough to satisfy your own desires

    • @TheClassicWorld
      @TheClassicWorld 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Put it this way, if you just want to use them for priming, etc. and you had to ask, then, they may be too much money. Then again, maybe you have a lot of money. In any case, a good airbrush and everything you need for model painting may be $200 or something, although you can do it for less. I don't see it really being possible for less than $100, though and I don't think you would need to go over $250. If that helps. :)

    Evergreen, either named after what they're killing or celebrating the fact that their product will never break down. On a less aggressive note, I like how you slowly bring in ambient sounds after a montage to let us know that you're jumping back to real time with commentary.

    • @repletereplete8002

      Yeah that'd be sweet, like a gundam kit. Maybe they'll release some articulated ones down the line?

    • @MrNotgoth
      @MrNotgoth 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You can make them articulated! Make some joints using styrene rods or use option parts from Gundam kits.

    • @0623kaboom
      @0623kaboom 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      so many ways you could make them posable ... even firm bendable wire and use that as the pins in some joints and you could reset them on occasion as well .. even use a dremel tool or similar item and make a cog surface inside the joint and fashion your own cog insert with a piece of wire then you can pose it any cog position.

    A nice bit of kitbashing those parts. It was cool that during the Kickstarter they did have an enhanced pledge for the game where they shipped an extra set of unpainted parts like this. I need to figure out what to make with mine sometime.
