    It's so fitting to use Star Wars model parts on this since they used so many random model parts for their original stuff. I love it!

      Right? Kind of homage to even the Star Wars builders. Most of the millennium Falcon was just a bunch of discounted model kits 😂

    Well....as the BIGGEST Alien fan, I loved watching this take shape. I also love that scene in GMR, so this one really hit home. Beautiful job. You are so creative...RING POP? OMG. That is awesome. Loved it, and congrats on your successes.

    This turned out really cool! It was awesome seeing the new techniques, I’ve seen people use that aquarium grating and it’s something I’ve always wanted to try out. The huge pipes looks awesome, and I never would have thought about piecing out model kit parts. The light and the structure being 360 degrees is just icing on the cake.
    Really awesome stuff man, I eventually want to do a sci-fi kind of station for my McFarlane Doom figures, I definitely took some notes while watching this! Turned out great!

    • @thomasgoesnostalgic
      @thomasgoesnostalgic  ปีที่แล้ว

      The aquarium pieces were perfect scale too. If I had a bigger platform, I would have loved to leave the parts with it because it came with cool piping and others pieces. I am going to save some of the pieces and use for a rooftop exhaust because they could definitely double for other props.
      I bought a big box of those puzzle pipes and figured they would last a while and be good for many projects. I can send you the links for the items for whenever you go to make a Doom dio that’d be sick!

    Hello, I'm from Brazil and I'm going to try to build this project because I found it the most beautiful and realistic I've seen here on the internet. Congratulations on your great work. It was fantastic. I would like to have the templates for the columns you show in the video, at 2:29 min. , so I can do it in the same way. Thanks for sharing.

    • @thomasgoesnostalgic
      @thomasgoesnostalgic  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Greetings from Florida! Thank so you much! That comment made my day! Unfortunately I do not have the measurements for the columns. I do remember I made them 1inch x 1 inch. So I used 1 inch thick foam and then measured out 1 inch from the edge. I just used a ruler to cut out the angles and made sure I did it evenly. I think where the columns meet the floor I did .5 inch then angled my ruler to get that cut. The one thing I wish I did when I cut out the shape was just to use a blade. I used my hot wire cutter which left some imperfections so then I had to sand. My suggestion is just use the knife to cut out those crisp angles. Let me know if you have any questions!
