Nice to see practical effects are still being used in the movie industry! There is nothing better when you see an object that looks like it was made by hand by some alien or human.
Would have been great for this to be in the description. Thank you. Even my AI bot couldn’t remember when it appeared. Need to get me a new AI assistant
I just love any type of practical effects but stop-motion will never cease to completely blow me away because it just feels so magical. There's so much time and hard work put into both making and animating these art pieces and I'm always so thrilled whenever I see stop-motion being used for movies and shows. Also, I just love to see people nerding out about the things they're truly passionate about and I could watch these three men happily talking about this for hours.
Seriously...I love his shows...I don't understand why we ain't preserving this or maybe we are I don't know...cgi and ai is less expensive..I hope the art is honerened some where
So happy that this technique in film making still lives on. If anything, I think 3D printing might boost it. Like they said, kitbashing is available in 3D modeling as well with greebles and all. Happy for them and mr Phil, the old school geezer that thought he would be extinct in 1993. It's such a nice nod to him as well to keep this alive. Thanks for sharing!
The animation of these things looked really smooth in the shows so I at first thought it to be well made CGI. Goes to show what some skilled craftsmanship can produce.
Great work comes from great talent… I worked with Mark years ago in the animation industry, and he was a riot to work with. The walkers I animated were made of plasticine… and didn’t last long…40 years ago!!
Well done Sean and Mark !! It's awesome that this came from the Tested community. My mind was blown when I first saw this on "The Mandalorian". It totally made sense that a military assault weapon would also have industrial applications. I even took a screen cap and made it my PC desktop... now I find out that it was Sean's handiwork.
The strategies they talk about are very close to the stuff I did for props I was making for Shape Island. It's very fun to see Star Wars folks figuring out the same things I recently did.
19:19 acupuncture needles, (7.5 cm long) that get a small section of them annealed and twisted around to form a loop. Painted green to make them film happy and then you use those to anchor your model. As they are very long, if the anchoring is right, you can even allow something (within limits) to scale a vertical wall.
Mark painted walker silver, then red and wiped it off, then yellow and wiped off and then misting here and there. Then weathering. I made vinyl stencils for leg stripes and the Auberesh. The spider was originally black with real rust effect paint that we've seen Adam & Kayte use before. We loved that paint job but with the spider being backlit, all the detail disappeared. Mark redid the whole thing more towards silver.
Yeah, I should've followed my childhood dreams and gone into stop-motion animation. I loved making my own Super8 animated shorts, but it never occurred to me that it could be a career.
That Bomarr monk's body is probably made out of an upside down flat 6 (cylinder) airplane engine. The "neck" that leads to the brain jar might be where the crankshaft lived. Kitbashing!
These perfectly demonstrate why you have to watch a movie/show especially Star Wars at least twice. You miss so much incredible detail and talent on the first run watching the actors. Sometimes the second run focusing on the background looking at the props is way more interesting. Love the Junk scene At At.
Am I the only one that thinks Adam needs to open up Adam Savages Mad Scientist Academy. A place that not only teaches you the skills to do the amazing things he does but teaches how all these effects work for the next generation.
I was just thinking about the term design language and empire aesthetic when they mentioned greebly and cut to the same surface detail that I was noticing in jedi survivor yesterday.
My jaded Brain always defaults to thinking everything is CGI these days, i should know better by now because this keeps happening to me, but it surprises me EVERY TIME when i learn something in Star Wars was actually physical effects. With all the talk of the Volume (Stagecraft) and the Unreal Engine logo in the credits, i just assume anything in the background that moves in Mando and BOBF is now CGI/Videogame/Photogrammetry stuff. Stop Motion? They still do that? That is freaking amazing. I think they need to make Star Wars look worse again, so my brain can compute what i'm looking at NOT being CGI.
This show allwsys brings back the kid in me...i kit bashed before it was a thing...never on this incredible level...good memories! Savage is Yoda! Lol...
It's a bit unfortunate that these 3d printed props will likely deteriorate faster than more sturdy props, leading to a paucity in such artifacts in the future. When the studio can demand quick turnaround on models, they'll to some extent consider the timeline to be less of a constraint that they must make affordance for, and they'll naturally shift toward finalizing these decisions on short notice and require 3d printed work.
Not sure but on the spider-thing, near the head would be (to the right), it looks like a cylinder head with a spark plug hole...feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, it just looks like that to me.
Hey I bet u ain’t gonna see this, but I just watched ur lost in space vid, it was amazing. I’ve always wanted a suit like that, I’m just wondering if it was like special made for yo, or if you bought it.
I just rewatched the episode where they collect Mayfield from the prison scrap yard planet. Sean is right, the walker cranes are so far in the background you see none of the detail. You actually see the crane from earlier in the season when Mando dunks the Razorcrest in the lake while trying to land, in far more detail. That has got to be frustrating to put so much effort into the details to never have them seen. I'd like to kitbash a couple AT-AT models and build my own version of this.
Wahoooooooo! 1st and early? HAPPY STAR WARS DAY AND MAY THE 4 BE WITH YOU ALWAYS! 7:00 I can imagine how hard it is for these guys to create the walker, but it's good that they're trying to find out ways for it to withstand the heatwave.
How many times can two guys say the word 'like' I suppose the English language evolves, but come on, form a sentence peeps! Apart from my soapbox rant, beautiful models and wonderful talent that highlights the best of special effects.
I was 7 years old when I first saw STAR WARS Episode IV A New Hope after my dad had gotten the VHS Box set of the Original Trilogy in 1998. And I still have it. Although the box is pretty worn out(just shows how much I watched the movies as I grew up. Then in 99 I saw Episode I. And I followed all of the Prequel Trilogy(which honestly is far better than the Sequel Trilogy). And the Clone Wars(2008) made the Prequel Trilogy far more better.
They never mention which season or episode these things are in. I don't remember seeing the walker at all. I wish they would have said. I want to go back and look for it but I'm not watching the whole series again to try and find it.

Agree
tbf they said they modelled it digitally and then 3D printed them. Still a human hand even if it's digital.
@@A_M_Bobb Yes, most special effects are digital, but the objects were still made as models!
You can see the AT-AT "trash bot" in The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 7.
Would have been great for this to be in the description. Thank you. Even my AI bot couldn’t remember when it appeared. Need to get me a new AI assistant
Thanks for this. Yeah kind of a silly oversight not have included a reference to the episode.

Once again Adam gets a front row seat to the good stuff. So happy He has a RUclips channel and takes us with him. Awesome Sauce Savage.
Seriously...I love his shows...I don't understand why we ain't preserving this or maybe we are I don't know...cgi and ai is less expensive..I hope the art is honerened some where
We consider ourselves so lucky.
@@tested We are lucky too being able to see it all with him and for FREE
@@brentcaudill7567 cgi is EXTREMELY expensive, and ai has really very little to do with how big production films are made rn
I see a non-canon detail on the junk walker. It has a railing on a high catwalk!
Joke aside, the walker had railings in Rebels. It's canon.
So happy that this technique in film making still lives on. If anything, I think 3D printing might boost it. Like they said, kitbashing is available in 3D modeling as well with greebles and all.

That scrap yard scene when they picked up Bill Burr was awesome! And B'omarr monk history is fantastic.
That model is essentially everything I love about Star wars and its production all in one place. Absolutely fantastic work
Absolutely beautiful work, the monk droid is incredible, honestly I assumed it was bigger based solely on the immaculate detail! Great stuff!
It's so cool to see people we have seen on this show for years go on to do such awesome stuff.
The animation of these things looked really smooth in the shows so I at first thought it to be well made CGI. Goes to show what some skilled craftsmanship can produce.
Bonus points for the They Might Be Giants snowman T-shirt
Very interesting how it came together. The episode was awesome, dark and gritty...loved it.
Now these are something to see
Keep up the grat work Adam!
Which episode was this in?
@@OffTheRailsPodcast i believe these were prototype bases for the actual models
Scrap Walker is Mando Season 2 Ep 7 (Chapter 15) when they go to get Migs. B'omarr Monk spider is Book of Boba Fett Season 1 Ep 3 at the beginning.
Those models are frekking amazing! such art pieces! Glued to the screen watching this and hearing about all the details.
Incredible modelmaking, these are true artists.
It warms my heart to know what Savage go tot work on the movie that basically set him on his life's course.
Great work comes from great talent… I worked with Mark years ago in the animation industry, and he was a riot to work with. The walkers I animated were made of plasticine… and didn’t last long…40 years ago!!
Love every video you do adam your an amazing human being may the 4th be with you adam from your fan Stephen form melbourne Australia
Great to see models are still a part of movie making magic, well done.
Excellent job. This kit bash looking design works fabulous ❤
Well done Sean and Mark !! It's awesome that this came from the Tested community.
My mind was blown when I first saw this on "The Mandalorian".
It totally made sense that a military assault weapon would also have industrial applications.
I even took a screen cap and made it my PC desktop... now I find out that it was Sean's handiwork.
Just amazing and brilliant works.
The strategies they talk about are very close to the stuff I did for props I was making for Shape Island. It's very fun to see Star Wars folks figuring out the same things I recently did.
The design is very 80s/90s scifi tech, fun.
Love the piston solution on the B'omarr monk!
19:19 acupuncture needles, (7.5 cm long) that get a small section of them annealed and twisted around to form a loop. Painted green to make them film happy and then you use those to anchor your model. As they are very long, if the anchoring is right, you can even allow something (within limits) to scale a vertical wall.
Thus was brilliant. thank you.
They Might Be Giants Shirt!!
The "They Might Be Giants" T-shirt just makes sense.
Would love it if some passionate maker/fan would build one that is fully motorized with remote control and/or a robot brain of it's own.
It,s possible if you,ve got an audrino board then it,s all about progamming installing and getting the code to work on it
I'd love to see how the paint job was done on either one of these.
Mark painted walker silver, then red and wiped it off, then yellow and wiped off and then misting here and there. Then weathering. I made vinyl stencils for leg stripes and the Auberesh. The spider was originally black with real rust effect paint that we've seen Adam & Kayte use before. We loved that paint job but with the spider being backlit, all the detail disappeared. Mark redid the whole thing more towards silver.
For those of you wondering, the junk walker was featured in the beginning of Season 2, Episode 7: "The Believer".
4:28 Is when he like oh shit this is real
This is awesome sir. you are fantastic mr adam sir
Yeah, I should've followed my childhood dreams and gone into stop-motion animation. I loved making my own Super8 animated shorts, but it never occurred to me that it could be a career.
If only the writers could put as much effort and love into the script as these guys put in everything else, that would be great
Looks amazing
Damn that walker is gorgeous 😍
Did realize those were stop motion! Awesome!
Sean wearing a They Might be Giants shirt is awesome!
I really hope, that thing will get the Lego treatment one day, can totally see such in my home cinema!
That would be amazing
They Might Be Giants!
What a crazy score you guys. Lucky sons 'a guns! And they both look good.
We work out.
That Bomarr monk's body is probably made out of an upside down flat 6 (cylinder) airplane engine. The "neck" that leads to the brain jar might be where the crankshaft lived. Kitbashing!
I guess to be a maker, one has to have the "maker" look (dark rimmed glasses, goatee, or a beard)
Not at all. Probably more of a regional look (Bay Area) than anything.
Perfect day 😁😁
May the 4’s be with you ❤️💙
Hi. Great model. Your channel always brings me back to my childhood 40 years ago.
So, what episode did this model appear on of The Manadalorian?
Season 2 episode 7 'The Believer.' It's at the very beginning in the junkyard.
These perfectly demonstrate why you have to watch a movie/show especially Star Wars at least twice. You miss so much incredible detail and talent on the first run watching the actors. Sometimes the second run focusing on the background looking at the props is way more interesting. Love the Junk scene At At.
Neat.
It's almost crazy that you didn't dive back into your razor crest build for the 4th. It's been almost a year.
great people with passion😄
these are like the REAL star wars toys we bought cheap imitations of in stores. this makes me want to make these for legit.
Adam you should do an episode going over all the on screen props you've made where you show screen shots of each one and tell us something about them.
Am I the only one that thinks Adam needs to open up Adam Savages Mad Scientist Academy. A place that not only teaches you the skills to do the amazing things he does but teaches how all these effects work for the next generation.
Nice TMBG T-shirt!
I was just thinking about the term design language and empire aesthetic when they mentioned greebly and cut to the same surface detail that I was noticing in jedi survivor yesterday.
Also seeing the starling making r2 noises video again today made my star wars day
This is great! will you be checking anything out to do with Andor? would be cool anyways to see.
May the 4th be with you from me and my son
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS!!
So when is the Revell kit coming out? That's what I want to know!
thats Rex's walkerfrom Rebels! nice!
well not exactly but seeing this its totally on par.
Adam could you take a look at echenry videos? Him makes models of back ground star wars ships
Amazing is right!
Love how you 3-D printed that! Is that used to suck up oil like a honey ants? Or water? Claws for grabbing stuff?
wasnt there something like this in one of the cartoons that a squad of old clone troops were living in?
@tested >>> Great video...👍
Even NASA money, our metal 3D prints are still rough, lol.
Anyone know what episode(s) this was in? I'd love to go back and watch it again. Ty.
S2 Episode 7 (Chapter 15)
Added comment at top
Is the fellow in the yellow flannel the same guy who 3D printed those tiny desktop computers a couple of years back?
No, but I did do a giant LEGO Classic Space computer - think it's on the channel.
Looks like it belongs in Robot Jox

A B'omarr monk was in Book of Boba Fett.
eeee. TMBG Shirt. Also amazing stop motion.
Cool
I dunno that the fourth is with me, but I can assure you there's a fifth within me!
This show allwsys brings back the kid in me...i kit bashed before it was a thing...never on this incredible level...good memories! Savage is Yoda! Lol...
DUDE IN THE MIDDLE IS WEARING AN INDIANA JONES RAIDERS JACKET !!
17:32 spit take in coming!
May the 4th be with you.

Totally - most of it looks like car parts - makes sense since the original in Jedi was full size.
Love watching your videos but I've never seen Star Wars
Hey I bet u ain’t gonna see this, but I just watched ur lost in space vid, it was amazing. I’ve always wanted a suit like that, I’m just wondering if it was like special made for yo, or if you bought it.
Meeting would imply mutual cognition. Yet half of these 'meeting' are passive, inert. What we might have is someone looking at something.
nylons: is that also how they did ED-209's 'head'?
Believe that was a textured rubber sheet

Which show and episode was the Elephant Crane walker in?
I made a comment with episodes up top
AT-MH- All Terrain Materials Handler
Kinda has some semblance to those huge coal diggers seen in Alberta coal sands
Which episode does the walker appear in?
The Mandalorian - S02E03 - The Heiress
@@paulbateman858 Yeah that's what I initially thought, but I can't see that model of walker, only the very different crane walkers 🤔
Ah, so it is in fact season 2 episode 7: _The Believer_ in the opening sequences.
See my comment up top
So, more Mandalorean seasons is coming...?
Disney killed Star Wars, so not likely
They never mention which season or episode these things are in. I don't remember seeing the walker at all. I wish they would have said. I want to go back and look for it but I'm not watching the whole series again to try and find it.

Was Sean the Inventern from way back?
I was!
Is this new or was it used back in the first season?
