I'vem said it before but this was an incredible build from start to finish. Seeing the 18 months condensed to just 45 mins was a joy to watch. Cudos to you for this amazing creation.
Congratulations for your work, you are the engineer of the Slave One 🚀 One of the most beautiful technical achievements I have ever seen in my life, And yet I am mounting Slave Ones in a brand model from Bandaï-Revell- Amt, etc. Your work is all just fantastic-Extraordinary, Congratulations for this perseverance Sir 💗💓💥💥💥💯👍
My gosh, your design, engineering, fabrication and painting skills are incredible. That is truly one of the most detailed, accurate and "functional" (cockpit rotation) creations I have ever seen. That is a camera ready model, worthy of movie, game or any application. It's almost too amazing to be simply display. I came here after watching your Aliens APC design, and will be watching your others to be sure. Thank you for sharing this incredible creation.
Thanks for your comment Jason, glad you like the project. Normally I just do a voice over but this was a summary of the full build series. There should be a new episode out soon. Thanks for subscribing . 🙂
Definitely worth all 45:56 minutes. Turned the basic 3D prints into a masterpiece. I checked good photos of the original and the quality of the paint finish and weathering of your model is definitely much better. Of course as a movie miniature, that model was perfect as it was, and yours is going to be seen from up close, so benefits from the extra care in the finish.
Thank you for the great comment. Slave 1 certainly has been a labour of love. The Mk II version I am currently working on is almost ready for paint. It features a more accurate hull shape, is much closer to the studio model and better captures the character of Slave 1. New video out very soon. 🙂
Thanks Sergio, glad you like my Slave 1. LEDs would have been a great option had I planned for them early in the build but I had way to much to consider with the re-designing to allow for them. There will be plenty of opportunity for them in version 2.0 which is coming soon. 😁
Really looking forward to seeing this project again. Will be very interested in any and all files that you might make available to one day make my own.
Hi Scott, glad you like my project. I am currently working on a full set of stl files available for Slave 1. There will be a progress video on that in due course.
Things did get a bit out of hand... What started as a simple build became a complete re-design but worth the effort. I am now designing my own Slave 1 from scratch so there is plenty more madness to come. 🙂
Amazing build, and a well made video, too. I guess that was a duplicate canopy in place during painting? I don't know of any differences, but were you using a model of a real Porsche as opposed to a model of the donor styrene kit of it?
Thanks TreadwellJay, glad you liked my version of Slave1. Yes that was just a spare canopy I used tomask the cockpit during spraying. I had kept the best vac form back for the finished model. I used plans of the original Porsche RSR to design my parts in CAD for the underside. There was still a bit of tweaking but the result came out really well. No vintage kits were harmed in the making of Slave 1. 🙂
Love the model, is the link to gambody your model or just where you started and you redesigned some of it? IF so are you planning on releasing your modifications?
Hi Rusty, the link to the Gambody files is just to show my starting point. I am currently working on my own set of files for a full stand alone Slave 1. There will be update videos on this in due course. 🙂
I am actually in the process of building/printing this myself. Can you go over how you did that cockpit canopy? I see you had some molded plastic. Is that a vacuum molded method or...
Hi, if you check out episodes 4 and 16 which show the process I used to make a mould for vac forming. If you have purchased a set of my files vac formed canopies are available through my website, but they will only fit my files. Hope this helps. 🙂
Beautiful work! I have one question while watching, can all these more accurate additions/changes be done/added after the fact of printing the original stls? are you using all the original parts and then making changes on top, or are some of the "original" stls left out? I hope i managed to explaing myself :) Many thanks for sharing your work. Regards/Ed
Hi Eddie X, glad you like my build. The simple answer is YES. Basically the original Gambody stls were printed in black ABS and ultimately ALL the detail was removed and re-designed. All of the detail parts were attached to the original with superglue. The cockpit is all new as are the wings and all of the underside parts. Just the very basic shape remained. I am currently designing a full set of new files for an all new Slave 1 which will be out soon. Sera
@@StaplesandVine Oh, I was planning to print this model and see how much i manage to "update" as my first project, since I do see how much work it is I didnt want to set my expectations to high. but at the same time i didn't want to bother printing something that needed "extreme" work to make somehow accurate. I guess the answer is that the model is "ok" to build on? But sky is the limit right :) Ill be on the outlook for your version. Thanks for your answer. Cheers
3D printed models generally do require a lot more work to bring up to standard. Gambody don't have the best reputation for accuracy. Check out 'Alain Rivard Model shop' on Facebook for some of the best around.
@@StaplesandVine yes, ive noticed they do a basic job but dont go much further, its an economic calculation it seems, they may even want to make multimple udpates so they dont want an accurate model, or prefer a rough cut to keep updating, anyhow thanks for that tip. Ill do that! 👍👍

Thanks Colin that's very much appreciated. 🙂
Spectacular 👌
Thank you. 🙂
Really enjoyed this build, very well done and thoroughly detailed all the way through, keep up the good work 👏👏🙌👍🤜❤️
Thanks Charranjit, glad you liked it. Get ready for 45 minutes of Slave 1 next Friday. 🙂
Congratulations for your work, you are the engineer of the Slave One 🚀

Congratulations for this perseverance Sir 💗💓💥💥💥💯👍
Thank you Anunnaki you are very kind 😊
The Slave 1 clearly is a much larger ship than I thought..
Yes it is quite a beast. Certainly a lot larger than the Hasbro 3.5 inch models would suggest.
Just Bravo !!!
Thank you, it was a massive project.... 🙂
Top Notch, panting and weathering is outstanding
Thanks Torsten. I guess I'm slowly getting better at my least favourite thing... 😁

I watched this video tonight and was very glad I did! Subscribed! 👍💯💯💯
Thanks for subscribing to my channel. I hope you enjoy the rest of my videos. Episode 4 of my APC build is out this Friday. 🙂
@@StaplesandVine that's great news, I'm looking forward to more on your awesome Milano build too. 👍
Once the APC is signed off I'm back on the Milano. Not long now...
Incredible.
Thanks Eyaura, get ready to make yourself comfortable for 45 minutes of building next Friday. I hope you enjoy the video. 🙂
Absolutely amazing to watch. Turned the volume off music is. So distracting. Subbed. Thanks for sharing

Perhaps the best time lapse video I’ve ever seen,incredibly interesting-fascinating….the skill level shown is mind blowing-absolute genius 👌
Thanks for the great compliment. I hope you enjoy the other builds on my channel just as much.🙂
Well dang, I'll be on the road in Montana when it premiers, but Saturday I WILL watch!!
Sorry you will miss the premiere MrAcuta73. Get some snacks and beers in for 45 minutes of Slave 1 on Saturday. 🙂
I CAN NOT WAIT lol
I hope you enjoy it on Friday. 18 months into 45 minutes . 🙂
You move the air brush like I do. It is easier to use it with the cap on so you don’t have any spillages.
I do need to get a cap for the cup for sure. So far no disasters but lacquer paints are very messy so I may well invest soon. 🤔
The best built for a Slave 1!
Thanks Lans that's very kind. My improved Mk 2 version will be even better. 🙂
it looks like it came out of the movie!
awesome!
Thanks mech builder, that's exactly what I'm after. 🙂😎
Masterpiece . Loved every second of this build. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Korbendallas71, glad you enjoyed it. The next big build is being announced this afternoon at 5PM on this channel. Hope you like it. 😎
Love your painting technique! My only regret is that you didn't light up the engines.
Glad you enjoyed the vid. I did add lighting in my Mk II build. Check out the last few episodes in the Slave 1 series. 🙂
This beautiful. Have you considered some LEDs?
Thanks Sergio, glad you like my Slave 1. LEDs would have been a great option had I planned for them early in the build but I had way to much to consider with the re-designing to allow for them. There will be plenty of opportunity for them in version 2.0 which is coming soon. 😁
Espectacular, impresionante destreza en la construccion , felicitaciones!
Gracias, es muy amable de su parte.
simply amazing. congratulations from Brazil. the very best model I´d have ever seen
Thank you for the kind comment I am so glad you enjoyed the video and like my Slave 1. Wait till you see my Mk 2 version... 🙂
Wow!! 😳
Thank you. 🙂
That was outstanding!!
Thanks Craig, glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks Sarrlacc Breath, glad you like my Slave 1. Version 2.0 will be way better. 🙂
Sheer class, cannot wait for the files this will be a grail build for me, thanks and can't wait for an announcement on your next star wars project 👍
Thanks naughtymark73, glad you liked it. Lots of bonus features to come on the new files which will be announced in the next episode... 🙂
I really enjoy your passion 4 slave 1 this is a master piece. By the way another detail the rigth place where sismic charge comes out.
Thanks Napoleon, that's very kind of you. Attention to detail is everything... 🙂
Wow che lavoro incredibile 👍🏻complimenti
Davvero fantastico
Thank you, that is very kind of you. 🙂
I WANT ONE SIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It may be for sale....
Awesome JOB
Thanks Bruno that's very kind. 🙂
That was certainly a very impressive build!
Thanks Model Minutes glad you enjoyed the ride. 🙂
Such a great project you have done. Really want to make time to do this one too.
Thanks TimesUp, that's much appreciated. Make sure you are subscribed to find out about my all new files to print your own Slave 1.
@@StaplesandVine I have been since video one. I was the one asking for the files before you were ready to release them. Now I know. 👍🏼
Excellent! The CAD design is going well but there's still a lot to do. It WILL be the ultimate Slave 1. 🙂
@@StaplesandVine awesome. So we will be able to get it? I don’t see any files on your site.
The files won't be ready for a while yet. I'm about 50% done but they will be available via my website in due course.
That is magnificent work by god!
Glad you like it. My next big build, the Milano, is looking good too. 🙂
u gotta be kidding me... what the fuck am I watching at? this is insane!
Things did get a bit out of hand... What started as a simple build became a complete re-design but worth the effort. I am now designing my own Slave 1 from scratch so there is plenty more madness to come. 🙂
@@StaplesandVine knees down!
Hey man absolutely loving your work - outstanding... have you or any other model maker you know made a blended wing passenger airliner?
Hi Steven, glad you like my Slave 1 build. Sorry I don't know anyone who has files for a blended wing aircraft of any description. 🤔
Amazing build, and a well made video, too.

Hey! I was thumbs up #100 !!! What did I win???
Undying appreciation...? 😁
It will always be called SLAVE 1 by me.
I agree. 😎

Du you use c4d for modelling? Or only to show the parts?
I only use C4D. It is far easier to use than anything else I have tried. But I still have a lot to learn. 🙂
@@StaplesandVine I use it since forever; I only think that „real“ CAD Software makes modelinng things like that much easier and more controllabel.
MASTERRRRR
Thank you... 😎
