The Difficulty In Making a Battle-Damaged TIE Fighter

  • In the realm of studio-scale Star Wars miniatures, modelmakers have successfully replicated many of the iconic starfighters and ships from the original Star Wars trilogy. But there are some models with elusive details that make for more challenging builds. Modelmaker Jason Eaton walks us through two such projects: a battle-damaged TIE Fighter from The Empire Strikes Back's asteroid belt chase sequence and a Rebel transport ship!

      Adam, good sir. Could you maybe do a test and see if a Lexus SUV can reach 24mph in 60 feet. Also test if it could launch a 217lb man 30 feet. Also test if the bones in a human arm could break a taillight without breaking themselves. The world will thank you.

    The true difficulty is that TIE fighters only come in two versions: Perfectly fine and totally destroyed....by being sneezed on.

      Hobby. For the enjoyment of the builder. Some builder try to recreate the prop. For instance the tie fighter is actual size to what the studio would have used for filming.

    The problem I have with weathering and battle damage from hobbyists is that almost everyone adds it where they think it LOOKS good, but it's unrealistic and subconsciously tells you it's all fake - there's not a lot of thought process and picturing an actual scenario for it like a movie set would.
    There'll be worn areas on a gun deep in a crevice to "bring out the detail" where there's no actual chance it could be knocked from wear and tear. Take this tie-fighter (I realize this guy says he took it from reference photos)... Sure the damage looks cool, but HOW could the tip of a wing curl out from damage without the actual wing itself being bent or blown off? The force to cause that damage would have taken the wing off or at least out of parallel but apparently it's perfect. These guys need to get experience in a car body shop to see how things are damaged and torn and misaligned.

      You need to look deeper at the dudes who kitbash/scratch build models of old battle damage WW 2 photos then but i can't say if any of them have had experience of near death in war lol

    • @RodCornholio
      @RodCornholio Місяць тому

      Agree that a high amount of hobbyist models have weathering that is too much, unbelievable, etc. What I am not sure about is: what looks good on _film_ , especially the 35mm film stock used in a lot of those movies. Maybe it takes a lot of weathering, more intense colors, etc. in order to look good under bright lights, with motion blur, film grain, etc.
      So, IF the hobbyist is trying to make a _filming model_ and the above is true, that could explain what we see.
      I don’t make models or props or costumes , but if I did, I would be faced with answering a lot of questions for myself, before undertaking the task. Because I enjoy films more than film making, I’d probably prefer the “how it looks on screen” appearance (then there’s the rabbit hole of _what sort of screen_ ? Silver, HD Samsung TV, iPad, cathode ray tube…).
      My favorite thing to experience regarding replica _or real_ props, models, costumes, is when I look at it and think, “I can’t tell if the weathering is from genuine damage from use or not.” There’s a palpable sense of reality with well made movie items. Creating that sense is an art form, in my opinion.

    • @scottwatrous
      @scottwatrous Місяць тому

      For something like a TIE fighter, I'm cool with it being a bit fantastical and who knows, maybe it's blown apart like that because some blaster bolts hit the radiators and caused a steam explosion on the wing there. And if there's reference for how the damage should look based on the film version than the blame lies with the people who made the original.
      I do agree however moreso for actual scale models of tanks and aircraft, will sometimes see people add smoke/oil/rust/wear in places it should never have been. One case in point for a model I'm researching now is people putting exhaust trails on the wing vents of a B-17 when those are air vents from the radiators and would if anything be leaving trails of 'clear' metal where burnt oil from the engine would otherwise be coating the wing except where the hot air from the vents pushes it away.
