Such a fun collab! I was wondering how you did those posts! I love that you got the idea from woodworking. The beauty of these collabs is getting exposed to new techniques from builders who are drawing skills from different sources. Also, I totally am buying myself a machinist’s scribe, looks super useful! Also I gotta order some custom water slide decals, they added so much! Awesome job bro!

"Hexagons, the most sci-fi of the regular polygons." Never has been a more true statement made.

I love that you (either consciously or subconsciously) alluded to the all-too-familiar color scheme of many large freighter ships, it really adds a delicious level of realism. The maroon paint job on the hull really gives it that post-industrial look and the fact that the cargo pods have corrugation, combined with each of them being a different color, makes them really resemble the big multicolored shipping containers that are always stacked on the top deck. Really amazing work as always, and also @gameyybuilds you are truly the patron saint of youtube crafting channels, you've already put me on to so many new channels with your collabs!

Great piece! You're the first builder to mention Xabungle! I think the designs are neat and I have a Crab kit I want to make! Still can't get over the steering wheels for controls!

[xyzsauce]

The snap, crack, and pop is so satisfying …..

[cmstrlisteningpostno.]

Glad that Youtube reminded me that I was subbed to gameyy and that I haven't caught up on his builds for a while. Lo and behold, I'm now subscribed to another kitbasher/plamo modeler channel.

And now I want to finish the model kits I left to hang for a few years lol. Maybe once I get good enough I can try to do some customizin; your and gameyy's builds are good reference for how far one can get with attaching bits and bobs on a good shape.

I love the leaf in the materials list, it was a crucial part of the process and it's good to see it getting proper recognition.

Awesome build, looking forward to seeing the other halves!

[RiganoBuilding]

I saw the rest from Gameyy on his channel.
When I see him, or studson, or bill making stuff, or CTG, Boylei, minibricks, JJcreator… I feel in heaven. Now I’m subscribed on your channel and belled!
Well done! I hope your channel will be greater!

[WarrenThrush]

I"m loving these builds, but I'm loving the 1960's era Batman sound effects just as much when you snap the styrene!! Bam! Pop! Snap! Adam West and Burt Ward would be proud.

[KamikiVector]

I love how both of you decided to go with tentacle creatures

[XaviusNight]

When painting on a PINK, start with a YELLOW - it works amazingly for my tabletop miniatures

[worldhopper]

Awesome collaboration - you guys should be getting calls from the movie industry any day now!

[frankwittner]

Quick tip on getting pieces symmetrical put a small drop of super glue between them then sand them together then just pop them apart, voilà symmetrical parts. Love the channel

[Avliv_Satan]

I like the rusty base color on the ship, makes it look like it's been floating around for a while

[TomJones]

As Soon as GB said he was in a CALAB I was like Helk YEAH! And Now I am SUBBED to you as well... You Do Some AMAZING WORK! You Also are An Artist!! I await More Inspired Crafts! Thank You for WHAT YOU DO!!

[och]

Great job by both of you. I found your channel through the link Gameyy Builds provided covering this collab. Now I have a new crafting channel to subscribe to!

[empyreal_lord]

Your build looks amazing! Gives very "scavengers reign" vibes

[chasonlapointe]

Fantastic colab, I love what you did with his kitbash. You really pulled it together and the red hull really popped. also it's a good reminder why it's never a good idea to smuggle giant space tumor seeds, they are a controlled export for a reason.

[wizardman-pc]

hell yeah i love this Collab this is cool

[cerisekappes]

Awesome results from the collaboration!!!! Both of you are insanely amazing creators!!!!
