Fun fact, if you heat your iron up to 400c, this is the magic temp for soldering enameled wire. It melts it right off and never have to scrape or fight with weakened solder joints
allow me to explain: enamelling changed a few decades ago - the old-skool stuff did need scraping. the current 'enamelling' on copper wires is some form of plastic coating, which can be removed with a hot soldering iron, as you point out.
@@raymondo162 I have actually done this on some vintage enameled wire from old electromagnetic coils and heat is still the answer. Can't be open flame, but a hot iron won't have any problems 👍🏻
For anyone curious enough, that missile in real life is about 50 ft tall and wide enough to climb inside. So in scale, that missile would be about 100 feet in air.
I was a navy missile technician on submarines. Great job!!! I believe it was the A3 missile you created. I worked on the next generations of SLBMs. C3, C4, and D5. Very powerful units...
You really have mastered the art of turning LEDs, fiberfill, and paint into convincing fire! It turned this little diorama into something extraordinary.
Decals are correct as well as the rocket exhaust. Congratulations upon your nuclear solution to some of the Wild Imaginary West's biggest monster problems.
I worked on the Trident 2 D5 missile in the US Navy Submarine Force, which is the more recent version of the one you built in the video. It was cool to see you make a model out of what I worked with for 6 years. Great video!
That came out nicely, I like that sea surface method. When you mentioned the blow torch to deal with the fibres I thought for a moment you were going to burn off those stuck to your fingers!
The channel everydayastronaut has some fun and informative videos on rockets with some videos for those just dipping a toe in and some videos for the more hardcore. Scott manly also has some good stuff.
I haven't seen that foil water trick before. I'm going to have to try it. Also, this model kit looks like one I had as a kid, but it was from a different company, Aurora or Revell perhaps, but the missiles are the same. (At least as far as I can remember.)
I know as an avid Boylei Hobby Time viewer that I'm not the only one who finishes up their own projects or tasks, etc. by saying to themselves "and after that, I called it good". Bro we need a tshirt with that on it! The front could be one of the Wild Imaginary West creatures with the phrase on the back of the shirt. Jussayin'!
For decals I have found it easier to put the decal paper on a piece of damp paper towel. It still releases the decal and you don't have to chase it around the water.
Simple elegant and brilliant work. Thank you for sharing those pointers for the water and torching the cotton down makes a big difference to the overall look.
This is a fine diorama, Boylei! I never fail to be impressed and informed by one of your project videos; which are always a high point of my Sunday Mornings. Looking forward to your next project! My Like is in the 1.5Ks
Here's something interesting about missiles: The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation.
Thank you for putting out weekly videos. You have helped my husband and I prepare for deployment because we sit down together and watch your videos! We are always eager to see what you'll make next and hopefully we can catch up on all the models you make when he gets home.
wow at first i was dissapointed that this wasnt a video about launching an actual micro nuke with a rice grain sized warhead, but after seeing the final result im impressed. what an effect.
I feel like there is supposed to be a fairing poping off at this point in a water launch. If memory serves a gas motor propels it through the water and then that assembly breaks away in the air. Also I hear current limiting resisters are good for led life.
I was stationed on the USS boxer in the Persian gulf in 2003 just before we bombed Baghdad. I was in the marine corps and I was a helicopter mechanic. I worked nights and on the night we bombed Baghdad, we saw a crapton on missles taking off from all the boats and subs around us. I really liked this model bro. Good job.
Ack! Speaking as an artist - the composition is so very aware of the edge. (It's funny, even the rebel Jackson Pollock made his drip paintings with an awareness of the edge). Seems like those waves would prefer an "open composition". Keep up the good work. 👏 🙌 👍 👌 😀 Aloha
If I'm not mistaken, that's a Polaris ICBM, which is the same one launched in The Iron Giant, so this unintentionally became an Iron Giant diorama!

or 750F since that's how the settings work on most american soldering irons
@@PropGuru702 why can't it be flame? That is hotter than any iron.
@@ano_nymprobably to do with the chemical reaction with fire causing it to not work properly
Pausing at 3:00, I think we need a giant glowing Jelly fish build? 👍
Oooo that’d be a great video
For anyone curious enough, that missile in real life is about 50 ft tall and wide enough to climb inside. So in scale, that missile would be about 100 feet in air.
For styrene models that you are going to light up, you can avoid having a glowing model by painting the inside with a good coating of metallic paint.

That water effect is amazing, genuinely thought it was a resin pour.
Those water decals went on perfect too. Mine always end up wonky 😅

"I broke out my box of missiles" said no one else ever. EPIC!
Imagine how bad Bin Laden wishes could break out a box of missiles like this! 😅
me after i see the atf agents knocking on my door
@@stop736 I don't think he wishes anything, being dead and all.
let's hope putin don't utter the magic wordskis.............. ??
Is he Hank Pym?
That came out nicely, I like that sea surface method. When you mentioned the blow torch to deal with the fibres I thought for a moment you were going to burn off those stuck to your fingers!
Yeah same 😂
Personally I think you should have made a bit more water disruption, but it looks beautiful already
So what advice would you give me to find out more about missiles? 🙂 This is such a cool build! Thanks Boylei, and you’re not a dingus.

I was hoping to seee a submarine in the build but this still turned out great! The ripples using the aluminum foil looks fantastic.
I was too

YES
Also it's possibly a Bible reference. He created all things and when He was done, He called it good.
I have my own diorama channel, and every video I want to say this, but cant cause it's his thing.

That water hack is super cool
Right on, C!! Love the smoke effect and I hope to use that water effect sometime in the future. God bless. -Rick, USMC
Amazing how much the LEDs increase the realism!
I was a missile technician in the Navy. I am so happy to see this
Glad to see another fun vid. Keep up the good work and would love to see more military models.
That looks amazing!!
These are always my favorite. You make it look easy

Came for a Real Tiny Nuke, Stayed for the aesthetics , Subbed!!!
Realistic!
Very intricate and beautiful, and easily relevant to the current messy era of the world.
This is so weird! I just finished reading the Hunt For Red October today.
i am always amazed at what can be used to look like the proper effect.
The water looks incredible!
Simple hard work, but breathtakingly genius
Extremely convincing launch! Very nice!

You know it’s gotta be a good video if you prematurely like it
2:41 - slap on some teeny glasses and you've got the "Mahna Mahna" Muppet!
0:26 the setup and delivery of this joke was so good
wow at first i was dissapointed that this wasnt a video about launching an actual micro nuke with a rice grain sized warhead, but after seeing the final result im impressed. what an effect.
The shadow the light makes on the water is very cool. Nice work!

Your creations never fail to make me smile while watching
Live. Laugh. Love. And Black 4.0
That is a stellar rocket mate, and thanks for the tips on making water^^
Live, laught, launch*
xD
The LED brightness works great.
The aluminum foil technique for the water is simply genius!

I really liked this model bro. Good job.
You could use adhesive foil tape used for sealing ducts to make that top layer really easy.
Dude, your humor made me inhale a piece a mint I was chomping on. Good work!
odd choice but really well executed , the fire looks awesome
I am always amazed be the foil water technique!
Looks awesome!
Be meat to see a Starship04 variant or Starship esk launch, done up as this.. Great work and video as always.
Wow! Very realistic looking!
That is so cool . That be a great night light in a room
Hey Boylei, ive been loving the verity of your build recently! Flexin that creative muscle
Very effective methods. Nicely done!
Incredible work as always 👍👍
Great video, presentation and build!
Oh my goodness ..!!!! This piece looks awesome 😍😍
Very nice diorama, congratulations!
Scale-A-Ton is one of the European masters. Great teacher.
excellent job! Big fan of explosions using resin.
Love these builds!
I hope a simple build this week means something crazy next week.
Don't forget to coat your water transfers in some clear coat, or something as little as a humid room might cause them to flake or come off completely
Came out pretty cool, but I wouldn't expect anything less from you my friend. 😊👍👍👍
It's 1:46am and feeding my newborn. Thanks for keeping me some company. Cool build 😎
Always a treat watching your videos. 🏆
Dude, when you hit the switch, my brain exploded. Well done!
That’s a very interesting technique for making water, I really like it
As always, wow! Came out looking great
Incredibly lifelike. 👍👍
Another impeccable project. You are the master of RUclips modelers no doubt.
What a great Diorama, thanks for sharing 👍
Looks so lifelike
Awesome You such enjoyable light effects.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🚧🔭📡
So cool!!!!!! Thank you for sharing.
Valleys between waves are known as troughs to us sailors 👍👍
having spent a little time on an SSBN, I really like this build
As the kids would say ... that's EPIC!!
Cool build, i like how you made the water and it looks good as well
I bet making this Rocket was a Blast.🚀
So freak'n cool!

Dude you are showing off! Nice work!
You call it good, I call it Excellent ! Keep it up the great work.
Fabulous work
Submarines launch SLBMs (submarine-launched ballistic missiles), a subset of ICBMs.
Looks amazing as always.
That's a good night light!!😳🤔🙂
That's pretty cool.
Looks awesome!
The waves and the lighting are superb!
100% Professional
Beautiful scene but let's all hope it never actually happens!
Beautiful!
Amazing work.
Ty for the video, awesome project!
Yeah, I'd call it good too!
For waterslide decals Try out using Mico Set and Micro Sol, it gives them a more painted on look
