    I really like the custom pilot figures you made for this aircraft but I wanted to let you know there is model figures at this scale. Look up 1/144 Mobile Staff by Wave, its meant for space and mecha kits but it has some pilots in the seating position that might work on future projects. Still this is an amazing work!

      Thanks for the feedback! This suggestion will be another alternative for those looking for a solution for pilot figures. I get complaints about hard to find or expensive materials in many videos. My intention is to offer different ideas to people who are trying to continue their hobby with a low budget. Otherwise, I have two different 3D printers in my workshop and I could make super realistic pilot figures. That's the point why I built them from scratch.

      @@Scaleaton You choice the correct path. Not everything is with in reach and you have to improvise on the fly using the materials and skills that is available at that moment. This video, like others you have done in the past, serves as a guide for us builders to help us improve are craft to make our builds a little better.

    If you should need another pilot figure in 1:144 you could watch out for train passengers in N-gauge from Preiser or similar. These are 1:160 (probbly close enough) and should be easy to modify.

    Awesome build. A great idea superbly realised. Also good to see within the process that you kept in and didn't edit out the change of photo used and why, revealing even better the hows and whys of the creative process. of not just the model building but what goes into great dioramas and presentations.
    As a trick on the eye this was proper magic...your placement was bang on!
    And, although your voice is very low in volume (it needs nockin up a bit, brother) and the lack of background music is very refreshing (take note, content creators!...sometimes less is more. ;) ) The reveal at the end with some rock music? Brilliant! THAT is how you make excellent use of music in a video!
    Now...Sci Fi nerds...kit bashing your next spaceship? Think about what Scaley did here...take a pic of your creation, get some sci fi background and in photoshop, turn your ships pic into a shadow and boOM! Awesomeness abounds as now your ship is flying out of a frame with it's shadow in shot and eye trickery is achieved....
    ....Jus a thought.
    ;)
    Another top build, Scaley!
    You continue to inspire and teach, Sensai.

    Absolutely spectacular-well beyond my capacity adequately to describe! Over the past few years have I seen other extraordinary examples of your unprecedented excellence! Thank you so much for these master class tutorials.
    I have had in my mind similar projects, though I lack the means to implement them. Not only is your own work exemplary, your presentation you now bring to us validates mine through serving as proof of concept.
    My idea is a forced perspective aerial diorama wherein I include several models of an aircraft in ascending scales. To borrow from, and to adapt, your remarkable example, I would start with 1) Tamiya’s 1:32nd-scale kit of the McDonnell Douglas F-15E Eagle USAF Strike Fighter; set behind and slightly above this first model would be 2) Tamiya’s 1:48th-scale replica of the same; 3) I next would place behind and somewhat above the first two facsimiles, two smaller, yet well-detailed 1:72nd-scale kits of the fighter (I do not know what kit makers might offer suitable examples; my inference from experience would be Hasegawa or Revell AG); these two also would be noticeably apart from one another; 4) at the last, I would set behind and all round the preceding models a few good quality 1:144th-scale kits of the F-15E; the one you employed looks excellent!
    Incidentally, I also may have seen another F-15 kit, this one in 1:100th-scale (though I may be in error). It may have been that of an F-15C, which would make it useful through serving as a replica of fighter escort.
    This would be an astoundingly enormous, multistage project requiring 1) building several highly detailed models; 2) for at least the first two replicas, a more sophisticated, counter-balanced gimbal crane than the wire you needed, one offering no, or a very limited, range of motion; 3) a substantial volume of space to encompass them; I estimate nearly 1 metre in breadth, 70 cm or so in height, and round 75 cm in depth before the backdrop. However, upon building all the models, a visual assessment of the entire assembly would be necessary to assess how the display’s components fit together in relation to one another, in prelude to its actual completion.
    I ask all reading this your for your reflection and ideas. If you want to build your adaptation of my forced perspective aerial diorama, I wish you every success where I lack the means even to begin; please let us all know how it goes for you. It might be well for you to have your modelling friends join with you in this venture for a group build.

  • @jonbutcher9805
    @jonbutcher9805 8 месяцев назад

    Oh. A cool effect would be similar with the 1:144 scale craft. But looking at it through a foreground cockpit view as if the pilot was viewing the jet through his canopy toward the fighter wing or his wingman. Maybe even the pilots helmit viewed toward his p.o.v. seeing the back of the helmet.
    Difficult to build i would imagine, but cool as hell if one could pull it off. Maybe even consider it a challenge. LoL

    my only complaint is that the shadows are inaccurate on the first background. One way for the ground, others for the aircraft. Immersion breaking tbh, and glad you didn't use it. Shame though because that was the best background!

    Very unfortunate how Revell always seems to have this tendency not to include figures. I have several Revell 1:72 kits but rarely if ever does it come with a pilot figure. So you have to either go for aftermarket kits with people in that scale or get creative.

    @smgdfcmfah 8 месяцев назад

    Very nice! Liked and Subscribed! One thing I will say to anyone else attempting something similar is that the light source is absolutely critical for such a work. All looks great in the video, but if you have a spot you want to hang this you better check the actual lighting/shadows in the room to see where the real life shadow of the model will land and adjust the picture to reflect the same light source or it will very quickly "just look wrong". Again, beautiful work!
