    It takes an expert craftsman to make a diorama look like it’s 1:1, and Boylei, you’re as good as Ive seen. Awesome build!

      this video is exactly why the original trilogy was the best, miniatures and special effects

      Plot Twist, it is indeed 1:1 scale and Boylei is a jötunn.

    Oh man that final footage of the ship being placed down made me think how cool that whole thing would be as a custom wireless phone charger. Place your phone down, lights turn on and it starts charging :o

    Boyel's narration is always friendly, relaxed and informal...clicking on his vids is always a chill experience. 👍

    Dude! This is hands down my favourite Star Wars build so far! There's just something about a well painted Y-Wing. Great job, as always 👍

  • @garyperkins2345
    @garyperkins2345 10 месяцев назад +8

    Your skill as a craftsman is unreal. But your usage of led's in your builds truly elevates them to an entirely new level.
    I keep coming back to your videos because of the led's.
    Truly top tier youtube content, video's like this is what youtube should be about

  • @mrknittle532
    @mrknittle532 10 месяцев назад +2

    Your content, skill, and creativity are always impressive, but you outdid yourself with your calming voice and naming the paint colors. You became the kit bashing Bob Ross.

    What i like most about your modelmaking is that you use things that are, relativley, easy for the average modeler to have or aquire. Rarely a 3D printer in sight. My nearest hobby store is 6 hours drive away so most modeling has to be done with whats on hand.

  • @TheLetterbomber
    @TheLetterbomber 10 месяцев назад +2

    This is absolutely gorgeous! The weathering was the most fun part, you absolutely nailed it. I'd love to see you do a sequel to this build sometime, maybe a U-wing or something with a different location along the seaside? Excited to see what's next!

  • @ericsainte290
    @ericsainte290 10 месяцев назад +3

    This Is one of the best star wars dioramas I have ever seen. The Y-wing is really nicely done, but it's the landing pad, the rocks and lighting that makes it even better. With the water painted red to simulate lava and a Tie advanced or an imperial shuttle and you'd have a Mustafar diorama...

  • @weihnachtsmann7699
    @weihnachtsmann7699 10 месяцев назад +4

    What a genius idea to use the magnet under the model for switching the lights on and off.

  • @ducatisti
    @ducatisti 10 месяцев назад +8

    You are, absolutely, the KING of lighting. Amazing build, but seriously, the magnet idea is flipping genius and takes this to a galaxy far, far away. Brilliant.

    Boylei is here & as always he brought Sunday with him.

    Mineral spirits are important, odorless even more so.
    Sometimes out of focus hands help for content. It's okay.

  • @davidsamford4711
    @davidsamford4711 10 месяцев назад +3

    That's so great! I love how the Y-Wing engages the lights. You should make a phone charging base like that. Or an amazing Star Wars charging dock for your laptop!

  • @Luca-ub3tq
    @Luca-ub3tq 10 месяцев назад +34

    This one was magical. I’m on my morning walk and the moment you placed the y wing on the platform and all the lights engaged…. This child like smile crept and then sprinted across my face!!! So so so cool. I need to try the magnet trick for my own projects now. ❤❤❤❤

  • @graefx

    I gotta say my two favorite fighters of all the Star Wars fighters ships are the X-Wing and the Y-Wing, and you never see enough of the Y-Wing, so this was a great build my friend. And the rock formation paint is beautiful. That is also such a cool way you lit the landing pad up and braced it with the original stand it legit looks like it was meant to be used that way. 👍👍👍

    Reeeeally nice! The water turned out way better than I would have guessed what with all the poured resin water everyone does. I feel the Black 4.0 helps it feel dark and deep. Love the magnetic switches you've been using recently too. One day people are going to be UTTERLY baffled by how to turn them on and I think that's just wonderful

    @XaviusNight 10 месяцев назад

    As I watched you making the little landing pad and door and such from scrap bits of whatever you had that looked neat, I couldn't help but feel deeply satisfied and proud of you continuing the traditions that made the original Star Wars sets in the first place. Almost every single SW set and prop and miniature was made using simple materials and random bits of industrial junk and leftovers that happened to be cheap and interesting to look at, and it is genuinely wonderful to see that process continued and made into such a wonderful result even in 2024 ^^
    You're in my list of 'top three favorite modelling creators' on the internet, and this sort of project is exactly why ^^
