I would love this for my basement arcade in more of a imperial style. I just discovered your channel today. It has great content! You're definitely an inspiration to want to try my own things. 👍
Dude you are absolutely killing it! It's difficult enough to produce projects with this level of skilled craftsmanship, but even crazier to do it at such a high production value that is so informative! You have my sub now and forever that's for sure. Keep it up and Adam Savage is going to be knocking down your door for inspiration. MTFBWY!
Dude that is AWESOME!!! The LED's really make it pop and bring it to life. You mentioned neon.... if you haven't already look into el wire, clear plastic pipe and a heat gun to achieve the look. Once again awesome build keep it up!!!!
Definitely unexpected but welcomed! I love these builds that you do that are very different than what everyone else is doing on RUclips. This gave me a really good idea for the lighting in my star wars room project! Thanks again!
ExtremeLegoLife we really appreciate that. I enjoy regular prop builds and projects as much as the next maker, but we also wanted to show how you can build some crazy stuff as well 🤓. We are sure glad you enjoy these kinds of builds!
Thank you! Absolutely. As a matter of fact we are going to have some programming and electronics content over the next three weeks that you won't want to miss.
I was just watching this…again…for the nth time. I had a weird question. When you’re building, painting, weathering the ship, are you building it as a model for the sign? Or as a reproduction of the characters ship? I had a thought that it’d be interesting to build it as a miniature of his ship, weathered as a full scale ship. Then do the weathering for the sign hanging in a dirty cantina in some grubby spaceport. So, two styles of weathering (2 scales). Could be cool challenge for the future.
my friend, i can promise you that we will 100% be doing that very thing! Ever since we made this we have been talking about it. Thank you for watching, so glad you liked the project!
I thought your character was going to be the pilot of the smuggler's room or be viewed from a window inside it, similar to what is in the line of StarTours Ride. This sign turned out great!
Thank you. I never thought about having him as the pilot, that’s a great idea. I was pretty tunnel-visioned on the arcade owner, but I like where your head is!
Awesome work! Thanks for the shout out to subscribe to another great fan artist after the video, especially since that's exactly the topic I was looking for this week.
Awesome video! Loved the 2 parterand the final piece! How about the alien's name as "Siriten Onc". It's "INSERT COIN" scrambled, like the glowing red things on arcade machines.
Thanks for the shout out! You don't have to mention my name... just glad you liked the name tag and you were able to use it! How about "Billy the Squid"? Lol, that's a very Star Wars-ish name. Never mind... sounded better in my head. Those LEDs always look so cool, especially with the grill. Nice work.
Thank you!!! I should have just threw out “Prop Rocks”. But I seriously appreciate the idea you shared. It worked out so smooth and easy, and it adds a great look to it.
ROCCOTHEGREAT I like where you are going with this. I think we might have to build a “shop-mate” and make him/her animatronic? I’ve always wanted to build something like that! Thanks!!!
@@TheSmugglersRoom exactly! that's where i thought this was going. i mean the sign looks amazing! just a missed opportunity to me, you can make your own galaxys edge in your shop!
Do you have a link for the scrolling LED name badge that you used for his visor? I got a couple from eBay but they can't do different fonts or symbols like they are supposed to. Thanks.
Marvin Boyce hey there, here is the link to the name badge: Red LED Name Tag, 44x11 Pixels Rechargeable LED Business Card Screen with USB Programming Digital Sign Display for Restaurant Shop Exhibition Nightclub Hotel www.amazon.com/dp/B0792TLKBQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_nTmZDbYJGA9SF
Yep, you bet. On the sign it reads “credits only” on the bottom right, and “no droids” on the top left. The dash and dot symbols that you see in the video are also numbers, and for those I chose dates; my wife and I’s anniversary, and her birthday.
Dude, I love your enthusiasm and honesty. When you said itd bee awesome to use neon but you didnt know how to do that, yet. Truely awesome. A geek after my own heart. Keep it up dude.
Nopa Nosta. That's my name suggestion for a Star Wars alien who runs an arcade. When I was a teenager there was one I frequently went to after classes. The guy who ran it didn't really like teenagers...lol..So he had a mantra for non paying customers...And his English wasn't great. He'd say "No Pay, No Stay." So.... Nopa Nosta
it's a large layered cutting mat. Here is a link: www.amazon.com/Dahle-Vantage-Self-Healing-Cutting-Cropping/dp/B0027RS8CG/ref=sr_1_25?keywords=large+cutting+mat&qid=1579018269&sr=8-25
Ok I'm 1 minute in and please get out of my head! I spent about 3 hours the other night researching arcade signs, like the old tin boardwalk signs with bulbs for ways to make a Star Wars version... Ok now I'm gonna resume watching lol
LOL!! Thank you very much, so glad you liked it and hope it helps with your project. (So for getting into your head, it just seemed like such a creative space to be ;)
We are looking a building a custom cabinet for the room project, and I’m going to incorporate a Nintendo Switch, as well as another emulator that I picked up last year. We hope to show several ways to have your favorite classic games as well as new things like an Xbox One.
You've skipped showing a paint layer with your masking process. This is how classic star wars paint rash and chipping is done. base coat and apply chipping with latex mask. then apply the next colour (silver for metal in the paint chip) and re apply mask in the same areas you applied the 1st mask layer then do your final coat. (three paint layers (base coat primer rust, silver and orange ) and two mask layers) then peel the mask off.
Hey there, sorry for skipping that step on this episode. We’ve shown it on so many of our episodes going back the last year that we sort of jumped over it here, thanks for mentioning it and breaking it down!
I like your humor!
Can a TV studio please give This Chubby Geek a show of his own? :)
Dinnie Stones LOL!!! You are awesome!!!
Shoot. I thought I was watching his show on my TV
I've been binge watching your channel. Its absolutley awesome. All the best. Tom
Thank you! So glad you are enjoying it!
Could see this sign fitting in perfectly in the depths of Coruscant with some shady character selling Death sticks outside.
Right???? That’s the idea. Thanks so much!
I would love this for my basement arcade in more of a imperial style.
I just discovered your channel today. It has great content! You're definitely an inspiration to want to try my own things. 👍
Thank you so much! So glad to hear you like our content!
Oh that's really cool!! I need to get an X-Carve!!
Thank you! I know, the X-Carve really has been a game changer and I am really not even using it to it's full potential. Appreciate you watching.
Dude you are absolutely killing it!

Thank you so very much for this! We really appreciate you joining the community, and the kind words are serious motivation for us. Thank you!
Man this was worth waiting for, so Awesome and so cool. Thank you.
Thank you very much, so glad you enjoyed it!
Every episode I watch gets better and better! I'm hooked! Keep it up brother!!!!
Thank you so much!
I like the addition of the custom ship repaint and the back lit arcade. I think the led lights are more in universe than neon would have been.
Thank Wayne, good point for sure.
That turned out amazing! Great job!
Really appreciate it!
You truly are the bringer of smiles and awesomeness!!!!!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Brian, DUDE, you’ve done it again 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you very much!
Congratulations on another fantastic job!
Ed Perello thank you sir!
The Smugglers Room Your Welcome!!👍😉😍🙌🙌🙌🙌‼️
Awesomeness again buddy! Networks will come a knocking for sure.
Thank you! That would be interesting for sure!
Sometimes I hate you for being sooo good at sooo many things. Excellent build brutha
Bearded Gremlin LOL!!! That’s hilarious. Thanks so much!
Dude that is AWESOME!!! The LED's really make it pop and bring it to life. You mentioned neon.... if you haven't already look into el wire, clear plastic pipe and a heat gun to achieve the look. Once again awesome build keep it up!!!!
Michael Potase ooooh!!!! I never thought of EL Wire!! That is a fantastic idea!! Thank you!
All in all this is an amazing oc great job
Yep, that’s kinda awesome!
Thank you very much!
Another great one! Poor dude doesn't have a wall to hang on. I can't wait to see what it looks like when you get that wall made!
Thank you! Yep, he’s just hanging around without a home right now, but we’ll get him up soon enough.
Definitely unexpected but welcomed! I love these builds that you do that are very different than what everyone else is doing on RUclips. This gave me a really good idea for the lighting in my star wars room project! Thanks again!

Looks great!
Could totally simulate the neon with a multi segment EL wire. The arduino should be able to run an inverter to make such a thing work.
Thank you for the great idea! We are totally going to have to try that! Much appreciated!
Great build! I wish I had an arcade. I look forward to building that room!
Thank you, we are super excited to build it.
That’s so cool I’ve been really inspired by your videos and started making some things of my own
YES!!! That is so great to hear, and the biggest reason for this channel! Thank you!
You really are an artist
Wow, thank you so much for the compliment, we really appreciate!
Pretty cool, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
You are such an ultimate badass! You make me miss Starwars. Cheers
Thank you so much!!!
Awesome and creative as always 👏👏
Iván Gonzales thank you!!!
Rezik Thade is the name that came to mind for me
Awesome job! Maybe a tutorial on how to code the LEDS and what board you use would be most helpful. Cheers
Thank you! Absolutely. As a matter of fact we are going to have some programming and electronics content over the next three weeks that you won't want to miss.
Was going to say the same thing! Awesome content smuggler! Was thinking of building a custom "pod or cockpit" for my 1up star wars arcade.

Thank you!
Man I really wanna see you make a full cosplay off of this character!!

@@TheSmugglersRoom no worries! Looks really good!
you should make a counter and have your character actually sitting or standing behind the counter! making him look like an actual alien in your shop!

Your channel is about to blow up. I hope your ready..
Ha ha ha! We are ready my friend. Thank you!
I am Sad, you are making me feel inadequate as a maker. This is a very impressive build.
Armoury-Terrain no no no! You are not! Keep making, creating, and most importantly enjoying the process as that’s the bast part!
You gotta totally make some DECRANIATED heads ... using your friends or family!
That would be awesome!
When you carve in the Aruebesh is it actually saying something or is it just a random assortment?
Yep, you bet. On the sign it reads “credits only” on the bottom right, and “no droids” on the top left. The dash and dot symbols that you see in the video are also numbers, and for those I chose dates; my wife and I’s anniversary, and her birthday.
The Smugglers Room that’s so cool! And Impressive most Impressive
Dude, I love your enthusiasm and honesty. When you said itd bee awesome to use neon but you didnt know how to do that, yet. Truely awesome. A geek after my own heart. Keep it up dude.
Thank you so much! So glad you ejoyed the episode
Nopa Nosta.
That's my name suggestion for a Star Wars alien who runs an arcade.
When I was a teenager there was one I frequently went to after classes.
The guy who ran it didn't really like teenagers...lol..So he had a mantra for non paying customers...And his English wasn't great.
He'd say "No Pay, No Stay." So....
Nopa Nosta
ProjectCambrian that is EPIC!!!!
Greetings Smugglah!
You should call the curmudgeon Ed Acra Lott, GM ( game master).
Christopher Cazaubon 🤣🤣🤣
What cutting mat are you using?
it's a large layered cutting mat. Here is a link: www.amazon.com/Dahle-Vantage-Self-Healing-Cutting-Cropping/dp/B0027RS8CG/ref=sr_1_25?keywords=large+cutting+mat&qid=1579018269&sr=8-25
당신의 작품세계관은,
뉴스타워즈 월드네요
Does the character have a name yet? I've been rewatching and am really curious. If not...how about Resh a'Gar Games Master.
Love that name! Thank you!
It should be in Aurebesh
Ok I'm 1 minute in and please get out of my head! I spent about 3 hours the other night researching arcade signs, like the old tin boardwalk signs with bulbs for ways to make a Star Wars version... Ok now I'm gonna resume watching lol
Ok finished now. That turned out AMAZING!
LOL!! Thank you very much, so glad you liked it and hope it helps with your project. (So for getting into your head, it just seemed like such a creative space to be ;)
I GOT MY QUARTERS!! LETS DO THIS!!!
Sweet!!!!!
Your builds are great but I wish you would show the final results longer and not always with the camera moving.
Kevin T thank you, that’s great feedback and we really appreciate it. We’ll be sure to adjust how we finish these off.
so which arcade are you planning on having
We are looking a building a custom cabinet for the room project, and I’m going to incorporate a Nintendo Switch, as well as another emulator that I picked up last year. We hope to show several ways to have your favorite classic games as well as new things like an Xbox One.
that CNC machine is bitchin, may I ask where you purchased?
Hi There, thank you! This CNC is an Xcarve. Here is the link: www.inventables.com/technologies/x-carve
Now i feel awkward about not doing anything with my clearance aisle Millennium Falcon toy yet to make it my own ship, "the Solstice Convor"
TimeKaiser oh man, that’s a great piece to have!!
That’s a fantastic ship name.
I know I’m way late to the party, but how about “Gui-tar Ampia” ?
How did you not call it a "star-cade" cabinet?
Right!?!?!?! 🤦🏻♂️
Ridiculous as ever and fantastic as always! How about calling him Chubbi Gheeke?
Thank you! Great name 😉
All of the weathering is amazing, but it makes the character's scarf look too clean. It's time to dirty that cloth up a bit.
Totally agreed!
A name for your bust:
Delosus Fides.
Delosus means creative, sly, or deceitful in Latin and Fidens means confident and without fear in Latin.
That's a great name! Thank you!
Isn’t that a Delta-7 starfighter?
Yes indeed it is!

See what I did there.
A Tricksters Backshop. HA🤣🤣🤣!!! Dang! That’s a great name!
Dude think about EL wire too
I NEED to try that stuff out! Thanks
His name should be solo ken
Not bad. . . we went with "Flynn" as a nod to Tron. ;)
Name him Juuko.
