Thanks so much guys for having me on the show, it was an absolute blast dropping in like that! Love how this turned out and I hope we inspire a bunch of people to go get greebly printing haha!
Thank you my friend. Really appreciate you turning us on to this method, and for helping out with today's episode!
Sometime when I’m working on project I will lose motivation instantly out of nowhere and your videos help me stay focused and make the process much more fun
Love that! Thank you so much, we are very happy to hear we are helping . . . that is the entire reason we started this channel!
Everytime I watch your videos I found a lot of inspiration for personal projects 😉👍👏
Happy to hear that!
YES!!! Another awesome Greeblies video.
I can't stop grinning when I here Greeblies... I don't know why, but it is an awesome Word, with an awesome meaning.
So glad you like it! We are obsessed obviously LOL
Another stellar Greeblies video. Who doesn't like a good TonTon buffet as long as it has womp rat. Yes!
LOL! Thanks Bruce!
So fun to see James from the Rebel Base Build! Love a good collab and this was awesome to watch you guys work together.
Thanks it was a lot of fun! 😁😁
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another good video, I use the Creality LD-002R printer like yours. Love it. Clean up is a bit fussy but great for the sharp details. I have 1 problem though if you could address it please. Water Washable resin is no safer than standard resin in the uncured liquid form. I don't know if James is actually washing this resin down the drain or if it was a B roll shot, but PLEASE do not rinse water washable resin down the drain. The only bonus to water washable is the money saved on isopropyl alcohol or other solvents for cleaning prints. It still needs to be washed in a bin and that waste water treated as a chemical. You can put the water outside to cure the particulate resin and then dispose of the water but never rinsing straight down the drain.
Exactly, it's really not ok to wash it in the sink...
James is good people and I love both channels! Puts a smile on my face when I see and updated vid! Kelp up the good work guys!
Thanks Michael glad you like our video!
Thanks Michael, James certainly is. Appreciate you watching!
Brian and RBB/JC3D. I want to thank you both it was a blast to just see how you both have a cool process for creating Greeblies! Liquid resin is a much cleaner way. Be safe and thanks again.
No probs! Was cool to take part! 👊
Our pleasure! Thank you Miguel!
Hello Brian from smugger's room, just so you know sanding or filing is the only way to do any modeling. Also remember that sanding, filing & sawdust is just the mans version of glitter and that a gentleman always has particles of the materials they use on them. and thanks for the videos as you have given a person like myself inspiration. Yay!!!
Thanks Ryan, totally with you . . . I’m just so lazy! LOL!! Thanks for watching!
Came for the greeblies, stayed for the positive vibes you always provide us. You rock Brian!
Thank you Andy!!! you rock for watching!
Half way through, and its already really funny. I love your editing.
Thank you!
What part of building Annie's pod racer was anakin's most hated part?
The sanding lol
LOL
Lol for sure...
I think you will use it more and more. One day you you wont even notice and you have a huge resin 3D printer at home :) looking forward to see the projects you do with it
LOL! I bet you are right! THank you!
Great job guys! I am also getting into the 3D modeling / printing side of things and Can't wait to add that skill to my props and costumes
Fantastic! I think you will love it. Can't wait to see you adding some of this to your amazing projects! Thanks for stopping by.
Thank you! It was fun and resin is such a fun tech!
Have the same printer, and love it! One fun project I’m looking forward to, is printing a the group of “Batteries not included” ... I just think they’ll be fun for the shop. I’ve only used it for functional prototypes for work, so it’ll be fun to start playing. Great printer though so far for me.
That is a GREAT idea!!! Love it!!!
I like how you have been using your success to introduce some smaller channels. Great videos as well man.
Such a Fun video! James "talked me into" per say also into purchasing a resin printer since he's been showing off his awesome little prints. I also hate to sand, I have a Creality Ender 3 Pro and print alot of stuff, but they never get painted, boxes and boxes of stuff. This will hopefully help out with things! Thanks again!
Haha cheers dude!
Thank you so much man! Hopefully this helps. Appreciate you always watching!
Man I love the fact I follow this chanel and just got my Creality resin printer today. Got it for the exact reason just to have another tool for builds ... Thanx for another awesome video hope it inspires more makers ;)
That’s awesome! Congrats to you! Can’t wait to see what you build!
I think I'm the only one that never ever heard the term greeblies until this channel. I've always known them as nurnies in the VFX industry.
We love them all no matter the name! Thanks for watching David!
Literally just bought my own resin printer man! This is so cool! I got the Photon Zero and it’s pretty cool!
Awesome!!!!
Thank you for another Video!💥😁😄👍🏿
You are most welcome!
Was on the edge for a resin printer - now I've been thrown off the cliff! ;o) Thanks as always for the AMAZING content!!
LOL! Awesome to hear! I resisted for a long time, but Jame showed me the way.
@@TheSmugglersRoom “This is the Way”
Awesome as always, that deathstar inspired tile had an idea pop up in my head, imagine this a wall (or large wall panel) fully made up with those tiles with a trench across it with minature fighters in it
Love it! Printing that tile got me really excited too. So many ideas!
Great episode!
Thank you bro!!!
Have you and your wife ever considered doing reaction videos on the Mandalorian episodes? I for one would be interested in seeing what you thought each week.
Really? You know we have talked about doing "reviews" or "reaction" videos, but wasn't sure if that would be well received. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@TheSmugglersRoom I agree. Would give us a different perspective on the series.. and any new build ideas. Hint hint.
Im sorry but that is some super duper Hollywood ILM sci-fi pro modeller stuff! There's no way I could ever understand printing enough to get into that resin stuff later. Brian I prefer your basement/garage style builds that I can consider giving a go myself. You have really inspired me so far to give it a go, but all that printing stuff puts me off and scares me. And by the way, Im a Brit as well and the pronounciation is GREEBLIES! 😄
haha I've definitely heard it pronounced both ways in the UK.. up north was different to down south lol..
Very understandable. Not all the projects we do are for everyone, we totally get that. We are excited to constantly try new things, and experiment with all types of stuff. Part of the fun for us is to constantly learn. We love the room build and garage builds as well, it's our favorite. Those also take a good deal more time, so don't worry, we will always have those builds, they just take longer. Thanks for the feedback!
@@TheSmugglersRoom Ive just moved house and am a massive star wars fan so I cant wait to get started. I have a list of things you have done that I want to try and Ive even bought a couple of those engineers weights that you use - even before Ive even stripped the walls or chosen the room I want to make into my man cave. Keep up the good work.
I was just looking at resin 3-D printers great timing! I was also looking at doing 3-D scans with my smart phone.
fantastic my friend. I think you will love it!
3-D scans with your phone.. I had no idea that that was a thing! Thanks for the heads up
A resin printer gonna be a mess to take care of (don't ever wash in a sink !!!) but it's worth it for miniature. 3D scaning with your phone on the other end, will not work as much as you immagine it.
@@SaitoGray any experience with it? What would work for miniatures and greeblies?
@@sketchyguynv a resin printer is perfect for that, but you can absolutely forget about 3D scanning them. The amont of work required to make them look decent require a lot of knowledge in 3d modeling. It will be WAY easier to learn how to use Fusion360 or Blender and make them yourself.
3d scanning work on really particular case only. And you need a pretty expensive scanner, and there's still a lot of work after to make a decent model. It's not worth wasting your time with it. It's better to learn how to model something.
I laughed out loud, twice in the first 48 seconds. Well done!
Thgank you!
Great video as always mate, thank you :)
Thank you!!! We always appreciate your support!!
Oh, I want to get one of these
Right? Crazy fun!
funny cooperation. Shout out to James. It must have taken a while to synchronise your side by side parts. Well edited
It was great fun! Intergalactic editing is the way forward!
Thank you! Not as long as I thought it would, it was a lot of fun to work with James, can't wait to do it again.
Just bought a resin 3d printer and was wondering whether it'd do greeblies okay. Nearly fell over seeing this video today. As always wonderful content and hope you're all feeling fantastic
Awesome!!! So glad we could help!
Cool!
Thank you!
Come on Santa, bring me a resin printer!!
LOL!! I hope he brings ya one!
Do you have an update on the mandalorian costume you guys are making?
I still really recommend card scrapers for cleaning up 3D prints, but yeah for small stuff like greeblies a resin printer is invaluable
Totally agreed! You suggested the card scraper to us and that was a HUGE time saver! Thank you for that.
Oh heck yeah, glad to hear they're working for you too!
Because sanding? The literal worst part of prop making, anything we can do to avoid it is usually a good idea
Must check that out!
Resin 3D printing is sometimes only a sightly less painful than FDM printing. That being said , the level of detail is amazing and worth the headaches.
Also, I lost the track of the times I've done the "I hate sanding" joke myself xddd yes, I hate it :|
LOL! Thank you. Yeah, that joke never gets old when sanding.
Cool
Great, yet another cool tool I can't afford yet.
Sorry, that was not our intention.
@@TheSmugglersRoom I know, but watching your channel is like being a kid in a candy store, I want to try it all.
Brian: Greeblies...
James: Greebles...
Brian: Geek-e-cation
James: Geekification
...
Brian: Toe-may-toe
James: Toe-mah-toe
Lol. Great vid all around!
LOL!! Thanks Andrew . . . nailed it!
Haha thanks!
Perfect! lol
I also recently bought a resin printer for the same reason.
YES! Awesome stuff!
Have you watched Galactic Armory? He does all 3d prints and has tips on sanding with print lines. I want a resin 3d printer too
Yes indeed! He does a fantastic job on his channel. Really does show some great tips on working with 3D prints. I'm just super lazy! LOL!!!
@@TheSmugglersRoom lol. I feel you there. I got a heavy Mando file from him 2 months ago and I'm still now finished sanding...😳
My friends have been telling me I need to get into 3D printing. I’ve been resistant, because I loathe sanding. And every 3D print I’ve seen has had those awful layer lines. Now, dammit, you and RBB had to show me those resin printers. And then I had to go and look at the pricing. Looks like I’m going to have to make room for a resin printer.
How about an episode on Fusion, and setting up files for printing? How do you establish the supporting framework? What’s the learning curve like for 2D designer to grasp Fusion and designing in 3D?
Sorry Deanna, there is always a catch isn’t there.
Love your idea on fusion and the setup. That would be really helpful. I’m still a total noob with both, but I’d be happy to share what I can!
@@TheSmugglersRoom your noobness on topics seems to evolve a lot faster for you then for me at times. Especially when it comes to third dimensions. Lol
Love the video. Great job to both of you!! The only question I have is how affordable is it? And not having any experience is it worth it? Guess gotta keep learning as a padawan..
The initial investment is not cheap. I was able to grab the printer on sale for $150, but I see now it’s up to $199. After that the IV light and turntable ran about $30. The resin itself is $36 per bottle. So to get started you are at almost $300. However, after that the overall cost is very low. The stuff I have been printing are coming in under a dollar per print worth of resin. I’ve made a dozen or more prints and still have not gone through my first bottle of resin. So after the initial investment it’s very affordable.
@@TheSmugglersRoom yeah thought it was just a little pricey brother. Gonna have to wait on that..
Darth Resin.
LOL!!!
Hi! So for a cosplay I’m making I need to make a broken K2-SO Droid that straps onto my back. Something simple where it’s one light flashes off and on, and maybe some voice line.Could you show us how to make one plz.Hooe you have a good day.
*hope you have a good day
Hello ,of course i know 3D Printer though i have never see one . Do you think in my old France, we could find shops for 3 d printing, cause the machine is a little bit expensive ! You do a great job, you're lucky. Keep on like that. Greetings from France . Regards Laurent Deckers
Great thanks alot now I'm getting a resin printer...no actually thanks alot my Creality LD002R's coming Saturday.
LOL!!! So sorry . . . and I can't wait for you to enjoy it! LOL
When he said "Thats coming up!"....I assumed he meant a Wampa at an "all you can eat Tuantuan" buffet..........it never came.
It....never came.
LOL, sorry bud, guess we need to do that now . . . Somehow
Do you have any video showing how to paint greeblies? And what kind of material do you use when doing so? Cheers :)
We have several episodes that we show painting techniques. Here are a few you can check out:

@@TheSmugglersRoom Thank you so much! I appreciate the reply :)
Brian... Where did you get that sweater!?
I picked it up at Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. I love this sweater!
Yo, Brian! Where'd you get that cool Industrial Automation shirt?
Hey there! I got it at Galaxy's Edge last year. LOVE it!
Yeah, dude! Looks cool! How is Galaxy's Edge? I've never been to Disneyland or anything like that, but the though of going to a Star Wars universe experience sounds awesome and worth it!
By the way, man. Been watching you for about a year. Love your videos, they've inspired me to start my own greeblie collection and someday make cool Star Wars stuff like you. I've been thinking about making diorama landscapes for Star Wars tabletop RPG too.
just recently (a few months ago) found your channel. Great video and great video quality. I'd love to get a 3D printer*, but my weak spot is the 3D modeling software. Just not good at it. Even with all the tutorials. So, while this was a great watch, I will always prefer your "making something out of nothing" greeblie episodes.
Hi Joseph, thank you so much for the feedback. I totally understand where you are coming from. The 3D game does have a bit of a learning curve, that said, with fusion 360 being a free software I really encourage you to give it a go. Just start simple and see what you can come up with. That all said, a lot of the 3D printing I do is with models I find on places like Thingiverse. There are so many talented artists out there putting their work up for free. So you don't even have to know how to 3D model to be able to 3D print. Now with the cost of Resin printers coming down and in some cases lower than $200, it opens a world of possibilities. We will always incorporate scratch building and such in our work, but it's awesome to take advantage of what advances in technology to add to it. Just a thought or two. Thanks for watching!
@@TheSmugglersRoom Hey, I just realized this is from 5 months ago! Sorry for the late reply, but thanks for the advice. The 3D modeling/printing is something I really want to look into. I can see uses for it beyond just making greeblies :).
I wanna get started with 3D printing, would you suggest I buy a resin or filament printer first?
Oh man . . . that is a tough question. The first thing I will say is that it depends on what you want to make. With the resin printer you get incredible detail but the drawback is you end up with very small prints. With a filament printer you have the ability to build larger projects; Helmets, Full Droids, etc. The downfall (in my opinion) is the sanding and prep. But with Resin you have other challenges with clean up and UV curing. Sorry, this is likely not helpful, I think you should decide what you are interested in making and then chose the best tool for that purpose. Hope this is at least a little helpful
@@TheSmugglersRoom that was actually quite helpful! Ill also have to look at prices, but that helped me quite a bit!
Whats a tomtom buffet? For that matter, whatsa whompa?
So a Wampa is the snow creature that captured Luke Skywalker at the beginning of Empire Strikes Back. The Taun Tuan is the creature he was riding on. ;)
FIRST!
BTW, absolutely love your videos. Keep it up. You guys make 2020 bearable!
Did you even watch the vid before tagging first?!?! 😂
@@patrickmills2324 nope. Too excited. Plus, I know it will be great.
@@briangreen3626 Thank you!
I think technically I was first . . . LOL!!!! Thanks for watching.
Sanding goes better with good weed.
HA!!!
Well crap! I guess I’m also buying a resin 3D printer.
LOL! . . . . sorry? LOL
