I think this is simultaneously one of your simplest builds but also one of the most professional looking. This one doesn't even look low/no budget to me.
doesn't sound weird to me to make a prop first. Its like a physical mood board. You're giving yourself a piece of that universe to help write the story with. I tell stories through painting and modeling so I can understand.
Your motto of square peg round hole and you talking about making a cube, as soon as you emptied out the carrier bag on the cutting board I got immediate Apollo 13 vibes.
I feel your like one of your next projects should be a miniature cyberpunk style city using bottles and whatever else you can find. Would love to see your take on it!
Just wanted to quickly thank this channel for inspiring me to go out to my local dollar and hardware stores to make a model of a Podracer to decorate my room.
Painter's tape or packing tape over the top of the stencil will help hold all the lil bits together then once applied you can pill the packing or painter's tape off. Often works. Happy crafting
what is it about prop makers having a tenancy towards being delightful oddballs? (I count myself in this a bit) what is it about the combination of technical problem solving and artistic thinking that does this? the ability to look at any old mundane thing and saying "that could be something cool/strange?"

I don't make a lot of sci-fi models, but I love Anthony's enthusiasm and the ability to make 'something from nothing'. Great vid, thanks for sharing.
That leftover Aztec taping underneath that layer is what makes that piece become amazing. Good eye, and great work. Love it.

Great stuff. I love that after 40+ years of crafting and building, i can still find tips and tricks to add to my arsenal
Damn that's a ton of experience
How old are you BTW
Just turned 50 :)
You are just simply amazing. You have a warm soul. Why do you not have your own t.v. channel? You need more followers!

The floating head reminded me of Wendon from Ice Pirates.

It's like a sci-fi Lament Configuration cube!
