    I was never into building models when I was younger, but LOVED looking at dioramas as a kid. Watching you and North of the Border, it's made me want to try my luck at it. It's crazy how a bunch of random bits and bobs can make a sick looking pod racer, and how big of a difference paint and washes can make. Nice work! May the fourth be with you.

    The way you pieced this together for me was glorious to behold. Usually its the electrical bits that take your builds to the next level, but in this case it was just getting to see your creativity unleashed and on full display. Most people would've just 3d printed out their model, so to see you show the merits of doing things the old fashioned way, was just awesome.

    Building outside the box is so awesome! I loved how your tractor became a pod racer! The whole idea of creating a pod racer from other parts, has to be the core thought in the Star Wars universe. They built from parts they had. So this kit bashing is so appropriate! Great job!

  • @SuperWarMech

    💡Here's an idea for next year's Podracer: Host a 'challenge' where everyone builds a kitbashed model using mostly a copy of the same kit. For example everyone uses this tractor kit & the resulting podracer must be majority (& discernibly so) parts of that kit.
    Lots to deal with in real life, but your short videos are a welcome check-out time. Not only has your channel inspired me to dig out some of my old hobby stuff, but got me really laughing out loud!
