    While I was building the Droid Probe, one thing that crossed my mind was... what happens to the droid after they finish their probing? Their transport vehicle crashes into the surface so they have no way of getting back so, does the Empire come and retrieve them?
    Let me know what you think happens.

      They might be retrieved, or they might just transmit the data and have some kind of self-destruct feature built in. That way, no one can get their hands on any Imperial tech.

      I think that those droids are "one-way droids" and a retrival of them is not in the plan.

      Do you think about making a political art statement. We are going through a very modern time and I would like to use your model to make a poster

    Just a few added thoughts. I would have added more blocks of snow (height) to the base. Like stalagmites and made one as the wiring conduit and stand. It would hide it. But your painting skills and adding the led are brilliant. Gorgeous model. Thanks for the tutorial.

    That really turned out great, I think the Probe Droid is a bit overlooked as far as cool Star Wars droids are concerned. It has that predatory insect look.

      I think the insect description is spot on. Thanks for watching

    Amazing build you did! I like your paintjob. Great Job.

    To save time next time for an antenna with a ball on top you can use a fabric pin that comes with a plastic ball on top. At least here I can get them with different sized balls on top and bring a pin makes it a bit easier to get into a model.
    Love the videos.

    Excellent work, 3D printing is the way to go when you want something that no kit manufacturer thought to make model of.

      3d printing was such a game changer for me. Thanks for watching.

    Fantastic work, The probr droid always looked so sinister gliding around on Hoth.

    • @ScaleModelGeek

      That's why it's one of my fave droids. It didn't look cute like R2-D2. LOL

    Very well done! Now I can’t wait for the next one.

    • @ScaleModelGeek

      The next one is a bit crazy and a HUGE vehicle!!!

    I would make a diorama box, then position the wiring rod to be on backside of droids head instead of going downwards to make it look more like it's floating on its own, You could then blend the rod to be same white color as the diorama background of snowy hills of Hoth to hide it even more. Just and idea.......

    Great build, Love that Droid, The lighting is simple and yet very affective. Good Work mate.

    • @ScaleModelGeek

      Only a couple of LED's but it really makes it 'pop'

    I'm sure the main colour has got some brown in it. Nice job though.

    • @ScaleModelGeek
      @ScaleModelGeek  Год назад +1

      I have seen it with tints of blues in some images and like you said... in browns as well. Thanks for watching

    Looks great. What scale or the original stl did you use? I did it at 100% but it’s a little small.

    • @ScaleModelGeek
      @ScaleModelGeek  8 дней назад

      No idea. It's a file I've had for ages and I just resized it to suit my build plate

  • @Rasordiver

    What paint color did you use on the big sensor bubbles?

  • @rickfipps1489
    @rickfipps1489 Год назад +1

    I hate to tell you that the actual probe droid miniatures body is actually bronze colored, but the full size probe prop was all flat black, nice build tho.

    • @ScaleModelGeek
      @ScaleModelGeek  Год назад +1

      In the movie it has a blue tint to it. I stuck with that though I have seen it with a brown colour cast.
