    Great channel Anthony as a photographer I make a lot of my own props and you're quite inspiration.

    If you want to go a little more Macabre you could use chicken bones as greebles.(I am not sure how to properly prep them)

    • @MiamiMillionaire
      @MiamiMillionaire Před rokem

      or maybe just fake plastic ones

      Bake them to kill bacteria then seal them

    • @csch1510
      @csch1510 Před rokem +1

      Eat a chicken, clean the bones, rebuild the bones with maker material
      Easy

    You did an outstanding job on this build.
    Regarding the rest of this comment, if you already know it, I apologize in advance. Hopefully it can help someone out there though.
    I do want to touch on camo, especially if you end up doing a military character in the future (I also hope this makes sense). Camo isn't supposed to completely hide a person or object--that's what ghillie suits are for. It's supposed to obscure details that could be picked out at a distance.
    When applying the paint, the midtone(s) should be applied on most everything, the lighter tone(s) on the deepest recesses, and darker tone(s) on the areas that stand out. You want it to blend and appear "flat and shadowless," though for a movie you would want the characters to be seen a bit. In that situation, instead of the colors being 1-3 gradients from each other, push them further to 4-6 gradients so there is more contrast between them.

    looks superb, i hope the film will be shot soon so I can watch it 🎞👍

    Love the video I really appreciate you taking the time to make stuff that an average person could do I'll be making some of your stuff and using them as display pieces in my shop as I work on my mandalorian kit for the mandalorian merc costume club thanks again Tim

    OMG...the music, Fallout series...or least something of that type...Fallout new Vegas....Honestly Anthony you are the one who could do that. I have seen your productions, you could do this 100% and people would watch it. 30min - 1hr and ep 20-23 ep Series. I can see it. Fallout New vegas sci fi post apoc series....you could do it!

    *when you make another one of these consider having the bolts'screws holding it together intentionally and very obviously mismatched since these would be assembled from scavenged materials...and using tools that are probably broken or very nearly so...might be subtle but something to consider for your close ups of the hero or beauty props*

  • @jonathanmartin-ives8665

    Very nice tutorial 👌

    Your videos are such an insperation and seeing your progress and how you intergrate the props into your productions, i love these videos of yours!

  • @bakubricks1895
    @bakubricks1895 Před rokem

    Seriously love your videos! You've helped me so much with making alot of props for my cosplays! I did want to ask if you could maybe make more cyberpunk 2077 stuff like weapons, props and maybe even clothes like jackets and so on. Hope you have an amazing day and thank you so much!!!

  • @thetribunaloftheimaginatio5247

    Heh... interesting camo-techniques. Though if I had my druthers, I'd also go for the more digi-cam look.

  • @TheMichaellathrop

    So two thoughts on duct tape, the first is just kissing them with a little sand paper before weathering could help, the second is that a real fix for stripped screw holes is jam a little piece of duct tape in the whole to give the threads something to bite on, and having that peeking out around one or more screws could help to tell that story.

    @DeltaWolf1000 Před rokem

    You could have perhaps bought a second one,or extra bolts. Cut bolt heads off, weather the bolts as you did here. Then the blunt ones could be used in close ups as if they had "pierced" the actor?

    Love these videos!! it inspired me to try my own project on a dollarstore gun. I'm having a real problem with the primer. I'm on my 2nd coat and it still isn't really sticking that well. I really thought I did a better job of sanding the second time around, but it's like it hits, and just runs right off. I'm using Krylon COLORmaxx primer. Am I using the wrong stuff or probably not sanding enough? Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it normal to need a few coats before you get full coverage?

  • @Gabrong
    @Gabrong Před rokem

    great! as a suggestion; if you are planning on some old farm environment, you should do a crossbow with some leafsprings from old cars/carts. they are absolutely realistic, easy to get on junkyard and authentic I think.

  • @spasticvisionfilms1307

    I missed the name of the company that you got the darker powders from, could you post the name please.
    I love your videos, I’ve done a couple micro films myself and you are such an inspiration! Please keep going and keep posting, again I love you work.

  • @phild8095

    Get a backup cord for the crossbow, just in case.

    1:35 at this point that aesthetic is overdone, and the max max black leather hasn’t been touched since the 90s.
