- I corrected a mistake in the editing on the first video. (First 3 minutes were missing)
This one is pretty long.. That's what she said.
Anyways, bout half of it is painting, the other half is assembly.
I could've probably done the paint job better but I did most of it on camera. I kno, excuses, excuses lol
The kit is available to download from the Budget3DWorks patreon or you can download the free Basic Commando kit from Thingiverse. Jus search "Republic Commando" should be on the first page.

Very cool build. The little strap things for his shoulders was a great idea actually. I also never would have thought to use the bootleg troopers.
thanks! And yep, way cheaper than getting official clones to jus butcher them up for custom figures lol also I'm working on making more tutorial videos for specific characters. Jus busy with normal life stuff at the moment.

I recommend watching the full tutorial before moving forward with your build, I am not the best at explaining things OR editing haha but to get the gist of what to do go ahead n watch the whole thing then maybe follow along while you work on a second viewing so you kno what's coming/what to do.
BUT this isn't the only way to do things, it's simply the way I do it. Hope ya have fun making your own Commando!
Can’t wait for the 3.75 ver!!
Been really busy past few months but I will make a tutorial eventually. I found a few different ways to do it. But hope I can get to it soon ❤️
@@KickapooNinja hey take your time man, your customs are fantastic and I’m planning on making omega squad using the new hunter body and a similar kit that ur using, I’ll wait for your video for inspiration 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for this! I just got a commando kit that is supposedly a bit easier to install but i am much more confident on being able to pull it off thanks to this. Appreciate it very much!
Yeah I think the most complicated thing is the legs and lower torso lol. Bit easier on some kits compared to others. I have the files for a separated lower torso (crotch, abdomen and butt plate) but I think this works easier for me as one single piece. Plus I can print the whole kit out on a single plate with my Mars 2 Pro.
Thanks for watching! Glad I could help 😁👍
Hey what’s the paint brush called when you painted the clone commando visor I was thinking to make my own custom Commando(btw real awesome work on that commando looks awesome!)
It's jus a cheap brush that I got from Walmart. I cut off some bristles to make it a fine tip brush basically
Oh ok
Thank you so much!!
What do you have them posted up on while spray painting?
Toothpicks stabbed into a box. You can use many different things like skewer sticks or some kinda small metal clips.
EDIT: I also have the inside of the 3d printed parts stuffed with Styrofoam
Where did you get the straps for the shoulder pads?
I used paracord, once you cut it to length you take the insides out, it's jus a bunch of small white strings. Then you seal it with a lighter/flame like in the video. You can find it at walmart or order it off the internet
What brush did you use for the small details on the back pack and visor?
I cut most of the bristles off of a cheap brush so the tip was really small
Good tutorial, love the customs. When you use glue inside of the helmet, can you still rotate the head? Is it durable and lasts long?
yeah I have about 4-5 Commandos all using this technique and they're fine. Jus don't over-do the hot glue in the helmet or you won't get good articulation
@@KickapooNinja Awesome, thx bro
@@edwardgarcia2817 if you do manage to put too much hot glue in the helmet it is easily removable as well. You can jus heat it up with a heat gun or hair dryer and it should jus pop right out
@@KickapooNinja Oh cool cause ngl was feeling skeptical about this method
Surprisingly the hardest to be looks like putting the head on correctly with the glue gun. How fast does it dry so you don't mess up? Also which 3D kit is that? I'm debating on doing this!!
I got this kit from the Budget3DWorks patreon but you can get it for free if you look on Thingiverse .com jus search "republic commando" and it should be on the first page. There's a few different kits out there all basically the same. But yeah I messed up one or 2 Commandos before. I jus pop the head off and heat the glue up with a heat gun so it comes out easier then I try again lol doesn't take too long maybe 30 seconds to a minute before it'll be dry enough to stay
@@KickapooNinja wait for free?!? How???
@@grayman1 I mean the files are for free, so if you got a printer you can print them for yourself no cost lol. Like I said jus search "Republic commando" on Thingiverse.com and it should be one of the things on the first page it has the basic Commando kit like in this video. If you want the parts for the rest of Delta Squad they're only available from the Budget3DWorks patreon
@@KickapooNinja ahh bummer I don't have a 3D printer. Can your order the kit from the site? Is this the same kit as John Walker Customs?
@@grayman1 no thingiverse is a 3D file site where everything is free. But I am not sure it's the same as the John Walker kit I think his is similar to the Skylu3Design kit. More parts than this kit I believe
Can you do the same with vintage figures with the glue technique and it'll work still?
Same basic concept yeah, because the armor is the same jus smaller
@@KickapooNinja perfect, thank you! Planning on customing some vintage troopers 😎
@@angelcedeno-garcia7022 I use Stormtroopers because they were cheap when I got them and seem to have the best articulation compared to tvc Clones. I'm waiting for the new Clone to come out and see how it works with these kits.
Good luck bro!
@@KickapooNinja I managed to get the newer ones and I'm planning to use the 2005 clone helmet and glue it with the neck joint for more articulation and thx!
@@angelcedeno-garcia7022 hell yeah thats koo haha
Did you say you used an AliExpress clone? Like the bootleg version?
Yup when I ordered mine from AliExpress they were only like $15-$16 per Clone. Way cheaper than whatever people are asking for official Black Series Clones. The only bad thing ordering from AliExpress is that it took about a month to actually get to me
@@KickapooNinja oh wow and how's the articulation. I hate how my boss looks and feels so I wanna redo it and I saw your video
@@m.032 it's good enough for me haha these Clones don't have the double jointed elbows and knees but I feel like they're better than the Clones that have double joints like the 501st Clone that came out recently in the archive collection or whatever it's called. Basically the same articulation as Boss
@@KickapooNinja the articulation on boss is good it's just he looks too thin not bulky enough lol. But you convinced me to try this out brother 💪
Are you doing anything other customs or commandos like the rest of delta force
@@m.032 yeah I'm currently making Delta Squad and Omega Squad for this dude but in 3.75 inch (1:18 scale) I plan on making the whole Delta Squad in Black Series soon tho I jus gotta finish these commissions so I can work on my own stuff
