The worm and the sand are like two distinct elements too much, I think putting the worm in place before he added the sand so some of it got in the worm would have helped, or making the hole cave in a bit around the worm's body so it looks like it tunneled out of it
I used to work for AMC corporate, and one time I was pulled into a conference room and showed some new video for chocolate churros we were going to sell at AMC Dine In. The chocolate really oozed out of them in the video. I was then asked if they looked too much like a certain part of the human anatomy. So I can say for sure they knew exactly what these looked like when they made them. 😂
My biggest criticism is they didn't go the whole hog and include cinnamon popcorn (or just cinnamon seasoning for the popcorn) since that's what the spice is supposed to taste like, and literally taking it from the worm's mouth is a fairly meta bit of commentary if you've read the books.
@@draconusfrigidus " literally taking it from the worm's mouth is a fairly meta bit of commentary if you've read the books." They are designed like dog paw cleaners, so there's even more meta commentary in that fact of manufacturing and distribution.
Wow what a fun project. I think you could have added a small amount of super fine copper glitter to look a bit more like spice from the film. Would give some specs to catch light. Nice work as always.
3M Super 78 is a great spray adhesive for polystyrene and other foam materials that will not melt. It also has the added benefit of being able to be hot-wire cut once applied and/or fully cured. So while hot glue is also my preferred way to adhere foam, plastic, or plaster casting to foam in quick and casual "run and gun" glue ups of smaller pieces to a larger base, I find that using the spray adhesive is a great way to make a large but still sculptable base for models and dioramas. It also has far less dimensionality than hot glue, creating tight spaces between large blocks, easing the smoothing that I do down the line.
I appreciate the fact that he did this entire thing without making any of the obvious jokes. One, it wouldn't really be in character for Adam/Tested but also the Internet has already made all the possible jokes you could make about this popcorn bucket.
I don't even have a proper table or workbench to do this kind of stuff on, so to say I envy Adam his workshop is an understatement. My hobby is basically just collecting stuff so that I can make something out of it "some day when I get a work area."
My brain can't look away from that gap where the skin on the pipe doesn't make it all the way around... why did we put so much effort into this and not patch that?
Right? It would have been so easy to fix. While I appreciate all the effort put into this, the one thing that bothers me most is the lack of a sand-mound around the worm. Even the bucket has that. Well, that, and the notion that Paul was riding the worm underground..
not sure how many of you guys watch van neistats channel, but he is a big proponent of "good enough", and i think adam is probably the king of "good enough". sure, hes a perfectionist with certain things, but i am often surprised by his ability to look past details like this. surely the gap in the scales and the lack of a mound around the worm are details worth fixing? based on the shirt change im guessing this build took him longer than expected and they needed to put a video out

I have been a huge fan of Dune since my teens. Read the books, saw the original movie so many times, saw the new movie and soooo ready for the new one coming out. I would just swoon if I got my hands on one of those popcorn buckets. So freakin cool and absolutely LOVE what you did with it. I appreciate you getting into it so much and sharing your thoughts and creativity.
I won't go out of my way to get one of these popcorn buckets but if they have them available at my IMAX screening I don't know how I'll be able to resist! Great work.
I had to make molds of my teeth recently and there was a blue clay and a white clay. The white clay was the kicker and I was able to explain what it was/did to my mom from your teaching in those videos! I am glad I watched your videos about mixing a molding agent and kicker because I thankfully mixed mine enough and got good molds of my teeth
Duneronomy! I love it! I would like to see you refine it by adding sand ripples where it's coming out of the sand and maybe a little sand falling from the mouth to give it more movement.
Lmao why do we as humans do that? Lol. Like ugh you smell that? Then the other person starts sniffing hard to try to smell it lol. Like it's horrible don't smell it!
@@Link_Skywalker007Morbid curiosity would be my main guess. The other would be a more primal "make your brain remember this so you can avoid it in the future" type thing.

One thing I would add is layers of sand around sand worm. You can see it on a bucket, as if worm pushed out some sand and it formed a ring around it. And in diorama sand worm just comes out without making any changes on the surface around it.
We got ours last night. Seeing the actual movie next week but the wife had to have it! It was actually sold out at 1 theater so we had to go to another! 27 bucks! Pretty crazy price for what it is but ah well!

I went to see the movie the other day but alas no popcorn buckets left which was fine. The film was incredible, glad I got to see it on the big screen.
I've only seen the origal Dune movie from '84. I do want to see these films though. Incredible job on the diorama though. It looks like something that was actually made for the movie.
Dune is my favourite series. I have no idea how many times I've read the entire thing, but especially God Emperor of Dune. So this is an absolute delight. One of my favourite people to watch (Your genuine love and enthusiasm), and my favourite sci-fi novels, coming together.

Adam, i still think you should wear a respirator while using bondo. The fact that it's giving you a headache is a sign that you don't have enough ventilation. Please take care of yourself as we want you around a long time.
Me ha gustado mucho tu video, eres muy creativo, simplemente magnífico. Reutilizar, modificar, readaptar algo que para otras personas puede ser basura, para ti es algo nuevo, le das otra oportunidad y si es desde el arte aún mejor. Mis más sinceras felicitaciones por la imaginación, tu talento, y por tu hermoso taller. Gracias por subir este video y regalarnos esta brillante obra. Saludos desde Chile.
One thing I discovered, regarding bondo, is that if you need it to be a little thinner or stay soft a little longer, mix in some acetone. I've used this to get a little better working time on a batch I mixed up, and also to get a thinner consistency for a smoother finish for less sanding. I don't know if this has any impact on the final, cured material properties, but it seemed OK in the applications I've made.
Never saw the new Dune movie due to covid, so I won't be going to see the second part, unless a local theater chooses to run the first one again. Sad, the original Dune movie was a big part of my formative movie experience. 😢 As an aside, Night Shift here on UA-cam uses thin wood veneer (think he prefers oak), to detail the edges of his dioramas, and paints them black. Really gives them a professional finish.
I’m a retired aircraft painter for custom private jets, we had to get tested regularly for overexposure to hexavalent chromium from spraying and sanding the green corrosion resistant primer. Gotta be careful with these chemicals, one painter I worked with used to was his hands with paint thinner and got pulled over one day for a traffic stop and smelled like alcohol to the cop because of the thinner, well he breathalyzed him and he tested positive because so much had built up in his system.
You used Methyl Ethyl Ketone on expanded polystyrene and *didn't* end up with a shapeless puddle of sludge covering your bench??? I'm amazed! IIRC, when I was a kid, Testors used to market it as a liquid model cement, and that stuff was impressive with the vast number of things you could reduce to slag, usually [but not always! 3:)] without intending to. Gives a whole new meaning to "Bond-O"!
We used to use Bondo all the time in my industrial design program. I still have some sick warm fuzzies when I smell it. And then throw open my windows.
Nice! I love when you work on models/ dioramas. I know you've done some scratch building in the past, But would love to see you do another Star Wars type of model, especially since you have all those bits and greeblie's from ILM. Maybe like a follow along type of thing. Anyways, I love your work. Keep on keeping on.
It's so great seeing how you work and the execution of this project. I'm not sure why you wouldn't have used the part of the popcorn bucket where the sandworm was exiting the sand and had the buildup of sand. I might have also included some sand on the work around the scales. But for a quick demo this was awesome! Always a fan!!!

I'm not sure why you wouldn't have used the part of the popcorn bucket where the sandworm was exiting the sand and had the buildup of sand. I might have also included some sand on the work around the scales. But for a quick demo this was awesome! Always a fan!!!
