Adam Savage's STARFIELD Spaceship Model Completed!

Our Starfield models are complete! Adam and the Tested build team put the finishing touches of weathering, decals, and vinyl application onto the Frontier ship and dress the interior of the cockpit diorama. We're so proud of this build and had so much fun in every step of the process. Time to pack the model up and take it to be filmed in a motion control sequence!

Thanks for watching!

For a long time I've advocated you guys make a model railway diorama, because it utilises a wide range of your particular skill sets, but you've never done it. However, this is now the closest you've come, and it's an excellent example of what's possible when you put all your combined efforts into a single project.

The sheer level of nerding out that I am going through by watching this series, I really cannot put into words!. lol!

[SweIceMan]

I imagine this is as close as we're ever gonna get to being inside ILM, looking over Adams shoulder while working on a filming model. Thank you for this most entertaining series, Tested Team!

[MrKermit]

Modelmakers dont get the credit they deserve and watching this proves it ! 👍

Got this in the background whilst playing starfield building a frigate ship. Seems very fitting

[marcdriessens]

I love the way you are talking to the model. I do the same and my wife looks at me as if i'm ...well not allright..let's keep it at that. Thank you for the upload!

Seeing Adam being in the Cockpit really felt like a Hobbyist making a Ship in the Bottle. Doing the final details on his model.

[p.t.anderson]

OMG - I just happen to have "Hard Boiled" on my desk right now. Just read it again, no idea how many times I've read it, and yes it is a masterpiece. The excessive detailing in the illustration is magnificent.

[RocketCityTim]

This series is a master class and a half! Thanks Adam and team.

In the last few days I played Starfield like crazy, the ship buildings in the game it's outstanding, with hundred and thousand of combinations

[eloquentsarcasm]

After spending almost 30 years of my life painting and sculpting 28mm miniatures for Warhammer 40k as my hobby/business, being able to paint and work with anything THIS big would be a joy. I can't sit hunched over anymore carefully painting eyeballs with a single hair brush, just too damn old now, but after watching this project I might just think about moving on to more large scale projects. This has been a joy to watch, seeing Adam doing what he's always been passionate about.

True culmination of the series here- you were able to capture more of a feeling of scale and weight in your test shots at 43 min than the final virtual studio shot.

Hey Adam, I have a tip from my years in the art glass business. When your transferring stickers with transfer tape, there is a wetting fluid (vanilla smelling) that prevents the sticker from adhering temporarily you can spray on before you put down the stickers. It’s why transfer tape is clear, so you can slide the stickers around into position. Once placed you squeegee the water out or let it evaporate and peel off the transfer tape.

100% one of the best series yet, please do more even if you don't have a client!

[casuallychallenged]

I am so happy there is at least one more video to go in this series! I love this build, it might be one of my favorite Tested things since discovering your channel!
I hope you all had as much fun as it seems in building this and I sure hope to see more of a similar nature in the future!

okay, now go into Starfield, build a ship of your own, and then make THAT ship into a real world model! :D

Love what you all do, looking perpetually forward to more from everyone at Tested!

[JD-wmuv]

It's so awesome adam still building and doing this stuff long after myth busters which was on for like 20 seasons

[punishedprops]

This was such a fantastic journey! Top not work Team Tested! =D

[krelliankruge]

The video of the model on camera brought tears to my eyes

[GenuineNPC]

Legitimately looks better than what I can render in real time. I LOVE how this series went, 10/10

[peteman-urgi]

I was actually able to be standing in the interior of this ship in-game as Adam was putting the decals down on the floors of his cut-away. That was really cool!
