    Very cool! You can't go wrong with a Star Wars build, regardless of the guy who says the Death Star is upside down. Direction is arbitrary in space!!!

    • @QkayDG
      @QkayDG 2 месяца назад +6

      🤓☝️Yeah but in the filming the camera does have a direction and it showed the death star the other way around, and since this model is placed on earth and not space, it has a correct up direction, which does not match the movie
      Cool build tho

    There is no up or down in space. The Death Star only has one direction it can shoot. It would need to rotate constantly to identify new targets and be able to hit them in the 3 dimensions of space. They're not sitting on top of an ocean, there is no horizon, and there is no up or down.
    Commentors acting like the death star is "upside down" are weird
    This looks great as always!

    • @simonseis744

    This is an amazing piece of art! I find it so soothing and entertaining to sit back and watch and listen to your narration of the construction steps. The range of your talent is staggering. All the mediums you work with from plastic to wood to styrofoam etc, the amount of techniques you have mastered, painting, sculpting, soldering, creating custom electronic diagrams for lighting sequences, it's just amazing. Best of all is your artist's eye. Your finished products are among the most beautiful on RUclips. You asked about favorite builds, I believe mine is the piece you made to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Two Towers - Frodo at the edge of the marsh, staring down at the elf corpse in the water. I used a video downloading app to acquire my own copy of that build that I can watch even during a net outage. I have enjoyed many re-watches of that episode.

    Another lovely treat as always, Caleb. Taking time away from projects/work is definitely needed to keep your creative spark alive and avoiding burnout, so I'm happy you're taking that initiative for yourself! I'm actually taking the next week off of work myself to focus SOLELY on my art ventures, which I am extremely excited for.
    I love each of your videos, but if I had to give a "favorite" title to any of them, it'd be the Nail Salon office from Better Call Saul. I'd love to see even more dioramas from you focused on other shows/movies like that. It's a nice change of pace from the usual fantastic fantasy or sci fi we usually see in the hobby space.

    Never a bad time to sit back with a drink and enjoy some Boylei content. Love your stuff~ Edit: For better star visibility at night I wonder about making the bases hollow, painting in B2.0, poking/drilling small holes, then using twinkling LEDs inside to backlight said stars. This looks amazing, but as you mentioned their visibility in the dark it made me wonder. I'd try it myself were I even a remotely crafty person 😂
