Nice to see you back sir!!! I still watch your bandai kit builds from time to time. Especially the ywing and the troopers. Bunch of great ideas obtained from those videos. More Bandai please!!! 😅
_The Spice must flow_ As an avid Dune fan I'm absolutely cheering right now! Wonderful painting job! A little lore on this harvester; the machine is supposed to have a bit more movement in the treads due to it navigating over sand dunes. I suppose if you did a full diorama it would help on a uneven basis but for a desk model it's fine
Glad to see you back after such a long absence. Avery unusual subject you picked to do this time and you did it justice, well done. I hope you'll begin more uploads on a fairly regular basis. Keep up the good work.
You did such a fantastic job making what could have been a monolithic grey rectangle into something incredibly rich and textured. Really inspiring paint job!
Yay, new video! Now I'm eager to see the Arrakis base you thought about. The "weathering with oil paints" hasn't bitten you yet, can't say the same for myself 😄
First time I watched a video of you and I am really enjoying it! I don't want to put you in a box, but you really feel like the Bob Ross of modelmaking : )
Ohh my... You really nailed this. What a fine paint job. You could put it right into the movie.. Only needs a desert diorama to be perfect... Nice. Regards from Denmark.
Beautiful build! If you wanted to keep the articulation for the tracks, it looks like you could sneak a butter knife or something flat and sturdy under those arms that the tracks snap on to give yourself the counter leverage for attaching them.
Wow, that thing IS small! Which is what she said when I dropped my pants. But enough about that. I like the coloring you were able to get with all of your washes. And it’s good to see you’re back. You had us worried.
Интересно, где-то реально достать модель харвестра, версии дюны 2000 он ещё напоминал по дизайну жука-скарабея? I wonder if it's possible to get a harvester model somewhere, the Dune 2000 version still resembled a scarab beetle in design?
Thanks! Yeah it's a shame licenced kits seem to be trending smaller these days, I guess the margins must be too small when they invest in large complex builds that only find a niche audience. We demand more quality molds now, which must cost a lot to R&D, gone are the days when they could hand sculpt something and bang out thousands of kits full of flash and warping issues. 😆 Of course this is all guessing.
Paint looks great, the kit is just so small I wish they'd have included the lifters for them, along with to-scale ornithopters, so it'd be a bit more possible to make a diorama of some sort.
I think the different factions of Dune have different harvester designs. That one in the video was the type used by the Atreides. The Harkonnens used one that was more bug-like in appearance. Trying to remember what the Smugglers' harvester looked like.
Hello, quick beginner question if you don't mind - do you use a booth when airbrushing? I'm just starting out and was gifted an airbrush, but I don't want to mess with a booth unless necessary. Opinions seem to differ, so I figure if you do or don't that would be good enough for me. Thanks! I really appreciate your videos; something I can aspire to.
I haven't ever used a booth, I only spray with acrylics which are not toxic so it's not usually a problem. I am considering getting a booth set up though, as spraying in smallish rooms leaves a lot of spray dust over time all over my models.
Hello. Could you please take a photos from each projection with minimal perspective distortion? Top, bottom; Front, back; Left, right. I'm trying to build a 3D-model. Pretty please. Just without hannds if possible.
Can you tell me how much you've diluted the brown wash (oiled earth), and using what? I got a brand new one and for the life of me cannot get a even, transparent coat. It;s just too thick.
I've never needed to thin the washes, they've always been super thin for me. I have had the Oiled Earth for years now, but don't ever remember it being as thick as you describe. The formula might have changed since I bought mine, not sure sorry.
@@modelchiliNo problem. It must be the new changed formula, since I also got 71.122 (now being named US Desert Armor) and it comes down completely different, sandy yellow instead of a grey-brown tan like on your model. Oh well, gotta improvise :D Thanks!
Yeah that's one of the things about Vallejo, they tend to change colours a little bit, it's really hard to keep up sometimes. Maybe I should just stop referencing the colour name D:
As I am never satisfied with anything, i cant help but wish Meng had also released a model of the weirdly organic looking Harkonnen spice harvester to be a companion piece to this one. And something to give a sense of scale. I don't know what they could have done however. An ornithopter in the same scale would be microscopic. A worm would be gigantic. That does however suggest a diorama potential of a worm surfacing under the harvester. Just a pit under the harvester with the suggestion of the worm's mouth and teeth in a surrounding ring. Hmmm.
i really like these no glue type of models, bought a few bandai star wars ones, which i need to buy more of because im really careless and broke every one of them lol. i wish more companies, like Airfix did them like that.
The idea was okay but basically if a person looked at it you would never guess it was supposed to be from a desert environment. It naturally resembles a WW2 vehicle. Desert is completely different shading and weathering. Put a Panzer turret on that harvester and it would look at home.
Excellent work, you made a lovely job of the model...... that is probably one of the worst pieces of "mecha concept design ever." Although expected from this DUNE "B" movie, balloons to take the off the harvesters... really?? Although the harvesters suk less than the Dyson designed guild shuttle and that totally believable landing leg sequence...

Thanks for posting this! I was praying to the model gods for Bandai to make some kits to this incredible film! These will do in the meantime!
missed this channel a lot
I hope to get back into a regular build schedule.
@@modelchiliat your leisure!
When I saw it pop up I got real excited
Can’t wait for more builds! More Sci-fi kits please!
@@modelchilitake your time :)
Nice to see you back 👍🏻 lovely build 👏🏼
Cheers!
Very glad to see you back at it Sam. Very nice build.
Thanks!
Excellent work on this build. The weathering is spot on and perfectly in scale.
Thanks!
Nice to see you back sir!!! I still watch your bandai kit builds from time to time. Especially the ywing and the troopers. Bunch of great ideas obtained from those videos. More Bandai please!!! 😅
Thank you! There's more to come. :)
My cat was very interested in your paint brush! Looks great, fantastic painting!!

Thank you! How to you rate Lynch's Dune compared to the new ones?
@modelchili Definitely a good attempt for the time and better than the weird ass 1970s Dune, which was a trip I couldn't begin to explain.
Glad to see you back after such a long absence. Avery unusual subject you picked to do this time and you did it justice, well done. I hope you'll begin more uploads on a fairly regular basis. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! That's the plan.
its just brilliant. Well done! Was a pleasure to assist. I'll subscribe
I was so excited to see you back I hit like before watching the video. You were missed!
Thanks :D
For just a "block" it is a surprisingly complicated paint job and build, the flat surfaces make it more challenging.
It was a fun build :D
It's nice to see that the 1970 Mercury Cougar makes a comeback as a spice harvester in the future.
Its all fun and games when all of a sudden you get that alert "WORM SIGN DETECTED"
in the model building world it would be "CAT SIGN DETECTED" lost many of models to the cat batting it to the floor
You did such a fantastic job making what could have been a monolithic grey rectangle into something incredibly rich and textured. Really inspiring paint job!
Cheers!
Yay, new video! Now I'm eager to see the Arrakis base you thought about.
The "weathering with oil paints" hasn't bitten you yet, can't say the same for myself 😄
Oh wow, I just ordered one of these last night! I'll definitely be using this for some inspiration on how to paint it up haha.
Nice, hope it goes well!
I was very much expecting that wash to coffee stain when you were tapping it but it didn't, couldn't believe it. Glad you're back btw.
So glad you're back!
Cheers!
Very nice mate! Welcome back 🙂
First time I watched a video of you and I am really enjoying it! I don't want to put you in a box, but you really feel like the Bob Ross of modelmaking : )
Wonderful paint job! The sand wash makes it look so "in context"
Thank you! I'm glad it paid off.
So good to have you back Sam! Wonderful build as always :-)
Wundervolle Arbeit.. 😎👍🖤
Top Job 👍👍👍.. Grüße aus GERMANY - BERLIN.. 🇩🇪
Thank you!
Ohh my... You really nailed this. What a fine paint job. You could put it right into the movie.. Only needs a desert diorama to be perfect... Nice. Regards from Denmark.
Tak!
Glad you're back!!!
Me too!
Beautiful build! If you wanted to keep the articulation for the tracks, it looks like you could sneak a butter knife or something flat and sturdy under those arms that the tracks snap on to give yourself the counter leverage for attaching them.
That is some insanely good small-scale work, Master Samuel.
Why thank you
Wow, that thing IS small! Which is what she said when I dropped my pants. But enough about that. I like the coloring you were able to get with all of your washes. And it’s good to see you’re back. You had us worried.
Well I'm glad you can worry no more. :D
Welcome back! We missed you!
Thanks!
Great work! I have it also on my workbench at the moment!
Thanks!
I missed your videos, so happy to see you still posting
Thanks!
Great build. Made it look effortless. Have a subscribe.
Thanks and welcome!
This looks like you could do a great diorama with this little kit and the Dune2 popcorn bucket.
Интересно, где-то реально достать модель харвестра, версии дюны 2000 он ещё напоминал по дизайну жука-скарабея?
I wonder if it's possible to get a harvester model somewhere, the Dune 2000 version still resembled a scarab beetle in design?
Truly amazing how you brought that model to life. Excellent work.
Thank you!
Nice on e Sam.. awesome stuff.. very tempted with these but hoping for someone to do some with more detail.
Thanks! Yeah it's a shame licenced kits seem to be trending smaller these days, I guess the margins must be too small when they invest in large complex builds that only find a niche audience. We demand more quality molds now, which must cost a lot to R&D, gone are the days when they could hand sculpt something and bang out thousands of kits full of flash and warping issues. 😆 Of course this is all guessing.
Lovely! Now get the infamous popcorn worm bucket and FEED IT TO THE WURM! 😂
Very cool build and great video! I wonder if you could make a convincing diorama with shiny metallic flakes as spice on a sand surface.
Love this ❤ the new Dune movies were so good.
been seeing these kits on Amazon just might get one now
That looks amazing! Great work.
Paint looks great, the kit is just so small I wish they'd have included the lifters for them, along with to-scale ornithopters, so it'd be a bit more possible to make a diorama of some sort.
Thanks! Yeah the Carryall would be a cool addition.
What a fantastic build! You've inspired me to take my own try at it :D
Cheers!
Welcome back, Mate!
Cheers!
Nice Kit, Nice Work
Thanks!
Great to see you back
You talked me into it. Ordered. Thank you, sir!
We missed you bud, happy to see you again.
Great Moves! keep it up!
Cheers!
part two was amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!! :D star wars is a child movie against dune. i hope the ballon and the space crafts wil come too . :)
Cool buddy, missed your videos, good to see you back.
Thanks!
Welcome back!!!
Thank you!
I still glue snap kits. I glued this one and left the treads off for painting.
Yeah definitely makes it easier.
This is so cool! I need to find where I can get this in NZ. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
hi Chilli great to see you back - missed you
Glad to be back!
@modelchili Did you clear coat the model after applaying the wash ?
I think the different factions of Dune have different harvester designs. That one in the video was the type used by the Atreides. The Harkonnens used one that was more bug-like in appearance. Trying to remember what the Smugglers' harvester looked like.
Yeah would be cool to see the different versions.
A small model but perfectly done
Thank you!
You gotta try the ornithopters I used sand pigments so much fun !!!
Building them right now!

The best is back
Been waiting for ages for these to come. Had them on pre order for a while. Where do you get yours?
I got these from Hearns Hobbies in Melbourne.
It's been a while brother where have you been? Hope everything is going ok !
He's been in Arrakis gettin lost in the spice.
Work's been keeping me busy, but that's not a problem no more. About to move country yet again!
Very sensitive and not overdone - love the sand - excellent - some people overdo the black
Thanks!

А зачем у Харвестера на крыше расположены кулеры от видеокарт?
And why the Harvester has video card coolers on the roof?
Nice, thanks for the video. =)
I didn't see the conection until now but do you think these Harcester is based on the NASA Crawler?
Yeah could definitely be an influence.
Let's roll that beautiful capillary action footage...
i really like these no glue type of models, bought a few bandai star wars ones, which i need to buy more of because im really careless and broke every one of them lol. i wish more companies, like Airfix did them like that.
Yeah gotta love these new technologies that makes these types of kits possible, and affordable!
If your eyes didn't turn blue at the end of the build, then you didn't do it correctly :P
Ah maybe they did. :p
De Spice Harvesters from Dune 1984 look more interesting and are instantly recognizable, such better design.
Awesome 👍
Hope in the future you build ornithopters.
I'm building them right now!
Welcome back.
Welcome back
It would make an awesome coffee table, if it was just a tad bigger
Very spice!
That's a spicy meatball
Ждём коробку с воздушным шаром, для этого краулера!

AMAZINGNES!!!
Brilliant using the bargain brushes for Yeoman's work.
Have a good Christmas Chilly Willy from AUS :)

Ever notice that him and MOJO from the X-Men are a lot alike?
Great work as always, MC.
top de la france ..model..
This is pretty much what HE3 collectors will look like on the moon.
Make a sand worm! Custom. Know you can do it!
the wash made the model. Too bad it's so small
I needed more chili in my life! 🌶️
I'm here to provide 🌶🌶
Super small.
Thats undewhelmingly small for the size of the box
Rust on Arrakis ? They wish ! ;-)
assembling ...
cool
Excellent work, you made a lovely job of the model...... that is probably one of the worst pieces of "mecha concept design ever."
