i have a question - i assume you are using xwing attack wing ships which are not strong plastic - and people do warm them up to correct them when they warp - what about just giving them a quick uv coat of resin first since that dries quick and should maintain the intergrity - also maybe try the star trek attack wing ships might do a cool job

[@robintranholt7720]

Great work Ben looks phenomenal.

[@liwarder]

@Ben's worx
If you put the tie fighter in uv resin would it warp the plastic from Heat or will uv resin not get hot

[@liwarder]

Like u did with X Wing

[@pamelamathews1389]

Hi Ben do sell the light display for your egg creations. I have 2 already and will be purchasing several more I plan on giving them as Christmas presents, and the small light up stands that I've seen you make. It will show case the eggs beautifully.

[@rachkate76]

Ben don’t ever feel down about ‘fail’ projects- they still are a learning curve for you but also for us living vicariously through your projects.
A strong person still uploads their fails in all their intended educational glory!
Well done on this one it looks great!

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Rach 🙂

[@dhd8850]

Absolutely amazing Ben, you should never doubt yourself even your "fails" are fantastic!! 💖👏👏👏👏👏🥇

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mand

[@MixedCrayonz]

Yeah, I need to fail like he does😭😭😭

[@johnvictorvaldez592]

Beautiful says it all

[@katiejarvis3652]

I love how the x wing has the bent shooters in front! It really adds to the battle scene look as if it too had been damaged. Good job!!

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Katie

[@yowgyrl]

I like how it can be viewed by so many angles, top, bottom, side to side. This is my favourite of your worx thus far.

[@BensWorx]

Thankyou

[@CurrentElectrical]

Ben, if you only knew how much many of us look forward to your videos "fails" and all. We all get to learn with you through your videos. Thank you.

[@NikkiHades]

Oh Ben, that is absolutely stunning!! Congratulations 👏🏻👏🏻

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Nikki

Wow very cool man and you should put led lights on the bottom and the top to

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate 👍

[@LFNC]

Ben's Worx No problem man

[@fbrdonr1989]

Very cool! I love how you can't even tell the x-wing is in resin. The damage to the tie is really neat. Please keep posting win or fail. We love seeing you and your work.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

[@amari7057]

This turned out amazing. I love the effect from the metallic colors. The melting of the Ty fighter gave perfect finishing touches.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

[@marty01957]

That came out great, Ben! Fantastic!

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Martin

[@naptimecreations]

Very cool, I love that shimmering effect. I swear everytime I use resin I learn something. I always say it's a success no matter what the outcome was, if I learned from it 😊😊😊😊😊

[@BensWorx]

Thankyou

[@naptimecreations]

@@BensWorx 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@reddragon162]

I'd actually like to see you do something like this again with two ships, but this time with with some thin rods of colored resin embedded inside as the lasers shooting back and forth.

[@melissaphillis7247]

Awesome idea

[@jaydiarae]

A fantastic outcome! I especially love how the two different colors of the crystals helps to identify the night sky and the ground.

[@kristinebaker5477]

Ben, I absolutely Love it. You did an amazing job on it. The outcome is perfect 💙😁

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Kristine

[@presidentjoebamama7665]

That’s so cool. I love seeing work that differs from the normal wood turning. Great job.

[@amberskyecampbell]

That looks fantastic. Even when things don't turn out how you expected I love that you upload it. Makes us who are novice resin makers feel better. Thanks for always inspiring us to try and try again. 👍

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Amber

[@KellseyMae21]

I love that he time lapses in the pressure pot. Its so cool and I don't see anyone else do it as often. Its interesting to see what happens

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Kellsey

[@jefferybiddix1096]

Awesome job Ben, be proud of all your work. There are never failures just trials in the journey.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Jeffery

[@skylark2077]

This is one of my favorite projects that you have done keep rolling out the Great ideas 💡 👍

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

[@richardslade1337]

Only word I can think of to describe this is masterpiece. I especially like all the colors you used. The exploding TIE fighter came out perfect.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Richard

[@jeannehinrichs5734]

failed projects are a good learning tool all ways show that video and dont let it get you down
thats how we all learn

[@BelladonnaButterfli]

Everything you make is always pretty

[@Machtimus]

Majestic is the best word that comes to mind...with the colors

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Andrew

[@shastahaldane]

I love when you use the color changing "glitter" looks so cool

[@BensWorx]

Thankyou

[@chartier67]

I love all your creations, but this one is definitely one of my favorites.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

[@TheConwoman3]

That is really cool. More miniatures. You are truly an artist. 💖💖💖

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Connie

[@EweChewBrrr01]

That fighter in the resin before you put it in the vacuum looked awesome. I think that would look amazing doing an underwater scene. The fighter laying broken on the bottom of the sea in murky water. Having some underwater monster like a giant angler fish swimming up to it with a light on its head would look good too.

[@BensWorx]

👍

[@Elzmeister]

Wow! The things you make never cease to amaze me. I can't wait for the next video!

[@Lorddanielrushton371]

That really awsome. Well done Ben. Never be afraid to show your fails, its the pathway to victories. It shows how far tou come as a maker.

Beautiful result! The hourglass idea is fantastic and your skill and patience with the lathe really makes your projects special. 👍

[@mkdrivingzone]

Mate you absolutely nailed it. The colours used on the TIE are perfect! Brilliantly done, next we have to go bigger! Red lasers from the X-Wing, green from a TIE, full combat diorama. You know you want to! Well done.

[@BensWorx]

[@tarynwallace6155]

You’re such an amazing artist Ben NEVER doubt your talent! Even your fails are amazing and I hope you see what an inspirational person you are to all of us❤❤❤

[@SuperBeardWill]

So awesome Ben! That small paint job you did to make it look like it's been/is on fire, really added to it! Great you weren't too down and hit a homerun with this project

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Will

[@candacehoffacker9644]

Nicely done. Am always glad to see your videos...it's encouraging to see you embrace failures as well as success

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

[@dekopuma]

I'm glad you went for the higher quality X-wing tabletop game minis. They look so much better than those hot wheels.

[@Sulzie65]

Love it. Amazing job! Love that the x wing warped a bit again. Makes it more realistic in the crash.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Janet

[@maxdannecker2077]

Absolutely stunning! You really outdid yourself this week! I love how you steered “into the skid”. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature! Great inspiring piece, brought back memories of the Aquaman cube with the sand!

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Max

[@jamesmaxwell2753]

this might be my favorite project yet!!!

[@LisaVornhagen]

That is really amazing! Don't feel too bad about any fails you may make. We all make them. It's a learning experience.

[@wayneplace8182]

Outstanding result, best one yet.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Wayne

[@frankstriker281]

wow the fail of last video made a great idea for that
i am impressed by the final result, a great touch when seeing the melted wings makes it look like it had just been shot down by the enemy ship or as if it were hit by some asteroid in the middle of space. I loved how it was in the end

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Mate

Amazing benefits! So glad it turned out so well.a proper master piece.

[@BensWorx]

Thanks Kath

[@lorrieruff4402]

Looks good.
It turned out better than I would of expected. I love the Hour Glass Shape, and the suggestions to keep the X-Wing intact, and use the warping on the Tie Fighter. I will have to peek back and see who suggested all these great ideas. Because this turned out wonderful.
Maybe a sea scape next time? I don't know if you have a couple of divers, and one of those glow-in-the-dark jelly fish. I think this shape would be fun with a underwater cave effect.
Stay Safe, Stay Healthy

[@jstorm7757]

I'm enjoying your videos. A tip for adding damage. Instead of clipping off parts, use a knife or Dremel to remove parts of the solar panels. This gives it more of a look off blast damage and ragged.

[@kennethyoung141]

Clear coat nail polish really helps to strengthen plastic models. Cool idea,always a pleasure to see you work. Still want to see a puppy project for your pup or inspired by.
