Build Talos from Jason and the Argonauts

[@sheldonmartin8239]

One of the reasons for watching your videos is to listen to your comments etc. Keep it up

[@sprueVerse]

Monsters in Motion in the US.

[@robertherriges6807]

Thanks for the smiles Phil 😄. Missed watching your videos.

[@salimom8722]

Love listening. Keep on talking Phil!

[@garysiers1014]

OMG, I just watched Jason, and the Argonauts last night. 😂

[@tachi98lep]

Awesome build of one of my favorite movies as a kid! This movie has everything in it: monsters, gods, adventure, damsels, and sword fights.

[@spacedock873]

Hi Phil. Saving this to watch tomorrow when I get some hobby time. Really disappointed to miss you at Telford 😔

[@spacedock873]

Hi Phil. Nice job on the kit 👍 You just keep right on rambling and ignore the sad trolls. Your videos keep me company and keep me smiling for hours in my hobby shed 😊❤

[@sharkytampy]

yeh he makes me die laughing especially with the part on this video where he says about killing yourself with the hot wire cutter machine

[@paulalanryder5397]

Talk as much s you want to Phil, it's fun to listen, great paint job, it makes the model

[@MsAston007]

Great explanation your enthusiasm is contagious!

[@sharkytampy]

just found the perfect water design for a base phil from another video on here and you glue down sheets and sheets of toilet paper onto a base and paint over it in pva glue too which will ruck it all up to look like waves and then add another layer then glue painrt that all over and keep going and then leave to dry for a good 2 - 3 days then paint and thats what ive done with my talos base too

[@davidlee3311]

A wonderful subject that came out great. I love your stream of thought ramblings as you are working on your models. Keep it up.

[@stevebak6664]

Nice job, Phil. I like it. Another one to put on display. It has a small footprint, should be wife approved. :)

[@peterwicks3498]

I like your content it is informative and you always make me smile. Great work!👍🙂

[@paulgertsch7105]

Turned out awesome. Have a great time on your trip across the pond. I know you are going to come back with some amazing stories.

[@justinn77]

Hey Phil (SprueVerse) I don’t think you talk too much at all. I watch some KZbin videos and a lady in Canada just love to talk about things and is quite good hearing about things and takes my mind off things that are going on in my life lately

[@steve1315]

Very good work sir 👍.

[@aztekdummy]

put down the book! your Talos looks great. the final Talos Tally is 3- all

[@michaelbaldassarre838]

Phil, Really turned out great, he looks just like the screen shot photo. Really nice job --- Take Care ! :)

[@sharkytampy]

just found out that star ace have just released the medusa model kit but it wont be out for a while and sadly, she has no arrows with it but it comes with the base that the deluxe star ace version has

[@sharkytampy]

hi phil my star ace triceratops model kit came today and hes beautiful and cant believe how lovely it is

[@sprueVerse]

Excellent! Enjoy!

[@joehoward3693]

Don't worry about rude people, some people are miserable and they want to spread their misery, I don't think you talk to much, I love your videos.... I want this kit lol

[@justted6178]

wow... just wow!

[@sharkytampy]

thank you for promoting this kit phil and yes they are epensive but worth it and i love em all

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Love it. Need to get mine done now

[@MACK_3D]

If you do yours Wayne, then I guess in a way you have completed the sprueVerse challenge. Would be great to see your version of this

[@robertherriges6807]

Slacker...🤣 Not like you're doing anything else😄

[@sharkytampy]

good on ya. will you be doing a assembly and a painting video on here

[@sharkytampy]

i,ll be watching jason and the argonauts tmrw on christmas eve like i do every year so i can check out the colour schemes too. have a great christmas phil and hope to send you pics of mine next year sometine

[@sharkytampy]

i have just started the patina effect on mine phil and didnt do what you did and wiped it off and ive just dry brushed it lightly with citadel nurgling green and that looks okay too and quite good

[@sharkytampy]

im gonna do my patinaing in nurgling green by citadel and cant wait

[@sharkytampy]

hi phil just wanted to say happy christmas and its been a pleasure chatting to you and watching your videos

[@sprueVerse]

Happy holidays! 🖖

[@MartinFutter70]

He turned out wonderfully, and your sea is brilliant, puts most resin water kits to shame... Nice work creating the bronze aged appearance gives Talos a very nice patina. As to the vitriol from a commentator I'd say there's always turning the sound off, but I'd say please talk more - I model-make and watch the show at the same time, so you become a modelling companion, keep on talking, making jokes and carry on regardless!

[@sharkytampy]

well i watched it and got a few surprises as i thought the sail on the boat was red like the boats one in the deluxe version but no its actually a browny colour and realised the boat is going to be a sod to paint ha ha but i,ll do my best and hope you had a great day today

[@sharkytampy]

hi phil ive just seen a great video on here of how to make a water effect base with toilet paper mod podge and paints and liquitex medium gloss

[@sprueVerse]

It’s a solid way to go!

[@sharkytampy]

i had a job phil to get the sword into his hand which wont fit so i may have to scrape a bit of resin off and glue it in

[@sharkytampy]

yeh ive just carefully scraped a bit off of the handle part in his hand the sword goes onto and now its a nice snug fit but will still need to glue it on possibly ... .

[@outofthisworldmodelsandmin898]

Phil, what an amazing build and paint! I'm hoping to grab this kit as soon as possible! I really enjoyed the entire "unofficial" challenge. I really hope to be able to meet all of you fine gentlemen someday, whether at a convention or a show. It really bugged me that someone had the gall to say that you talk too much. Content creators are all different, and everyone has their own style. C'mon, You're the guy who brought back Doctor Who in my opinion! You talk as much as you want! Keep up the great work, and don't ever stop talking! -John

[@sharkytampy]

will let you know phil what the bronze goes on like with the grey primer

[@sharkytampy]

im gonna send you a pic of mine when hes done phil too... and ... the triceratops from one million years bc is coming out next week as a kit too and cant wait to get one

[@sprueVerse]

Excellent! Look forward to seeing the pics!

[@stephenknoll5063]

You like to talk and Lou loves to make it rain with puns, I would not dare to ask either of you to change. Everyone has their own style and flavor, if you don't like someone's style then just go to another channel. Please don't pay any attention to the negativity Phil we all love you just the way you are. Now go build something... 😀

[@sharkytampy]

when will you be ptting your medusa build and paint up video on so i can keep an eye out for it

[@sprueVerse]

It will either happen for Halloween or be pushed into late November. Just to busy on my Enterprise D to know at the moment.

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok then will wait and look forward to it

[@sharkytampy]

i was really worried phil when i painted my talos like you did in this bronze colour as it looks black when its on but in different scenes of yours it looks like mine has come out the same in a darkish brown colour

[@sprueVerse]

Did you prime the model in black? Your base coat will change the bronze color - you can also tone it down with some craft acrylic bronze as well.

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse no i have a grey colored primer i can use on it first

[@sharkytampy]

i painted the hands in the grey primer and its gone on different colour so maybe i need to prime it all in grey first

[@sprueVerse]

I used black.

[@sharkytampy]

hi phil, thank you so much for this video as this is what i want to do with a diorama base as i have this kit too so well done and im sorry youve been getting nasty comments. is there any way too you could do more videos the same as this with the other kits ... please... i really enjoyed this and you explained everything well

[@sprueVerse]

Lots of fun builds planned for the weeks and months ahead! Cheers! Phil.

[@sharkytampy]

will you be doing a medusa model kit video

[@eliotbrown4506]

I dunno, Phil-- part of your charm is that you *do* talk a lot. And you have something to say. Self-deprecation is my own method of engaging (a la S. J. Perelman) so I enjoy it. I was only going to comment that your color of bronze and verdigris seemed a little too cold and blue. But I realized that there was no practical way to judge through this path of communication. I do believe that you have your cameras EV way high. The white areas of your table swamp out anything on your white-ish work mat. So hard to say what's going on. The base looks great-- working with paint only did well for you. I might have tried for more height in the rocks-- but even good Mr. Harryhausen seemed to wipe his sweating brow and cry, "Enough!" on that base of his. I hope this finds you and yours all well and good-- I used to say, don't eat too much around TDay, now, go'wan, eat too much.

[@stephenknoll5063]

Your summary says it is a X-Plus model instead of Space Ace. Just letting you know Phil.

[@sprueVerse]

Thank you for catching that. I’ve fixed the mistake. Cheers!

[@sharkytampy]

youve got to see it i tell ya !!

[@sharkytampy]

im going to have to get that bronze colour you used too as the bronze one ive got is coming out like a pure gold and doesent look right. ive only done a foot with it and looks too glittery and will be doing the patina with a pale light green like you did with your colour but im dreading the boat

[@sprueVerse]

The boat isn’t hard, take your time!

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok yeh will do

[@sharkytampy]

this has really surprised me phil they have included the base with it that the deluxe version has but sadly no arrows which i think is bad considering talos had all the little oars in the boat with this kit so im hoping that they will start releasing the kits with the bases the deluxe ones have too and accesories

[@nigeldonaldson1647]

I didnt know there was a TALOS kit, is this an old discontinued one from Japan perhaps? it looks very authentic, & well detailed, this isnt the usual boring standing pose, or the kneeling on the plynth one either. he really looks dynamic as though he's busy

[@sprueVerse]

This is a relatively new kit.

[@sharkytampy]

any news on a medusa video kit build and paint yet

[@TrayChester01]

Star Ace is rather impressive. They also sell pre-assembled and painted versions of these. Their Kraken is amazing. Phil, did you not apply the adhesion promoter, or did you do it off-camera?

[@sprueVerse]

It was applied off camera.

[@TrayChester01]

@@sprueVerse Excellent. It came out great, Phil!

[@GPGPapercraftTX]

Talk all you want dude! You are saying important stuff. Craft Paint & Air Brushes: Most Craft Paint is Acrylic, I, at least, can't find what was called "Tempera" paint in my youth. I would choose Acrylic anyway. Too much water in other paints for putting on paper models. Acrylic paint airbrushes just fine. The secret is simple. 1. Yes, thin, thin. I use the stuff off the shelf. I'll have to try some ammonia cleaner some day. We know from "Big Fat Greek Wedding" that Windex cures everything. 2. Acrylic Craft Paint drys QUICK. it will build up and clog your needle. Clean often and expect to field strip the brush every time. There is stuff that supposedly delays the paint cure. Haven't tried it. Nice side effect. Acrylic Craft paint seals paper so well you can actually put decals on it with absolute impunity.

[@sharkytampy]

did you order your medusa kit from star ace in japan phil on thier sight or a company in the US

[@sharkytampy]

sorry to keep on phil but did you put plaster of paris on the base and shape it all over to get the sea effect and then painted it in the blue ?

[@sprueVerse]

Yep

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok brilliant. thanks for letting me know i may do that myself with my talos model too

[@Dane69]

👍👍

[@sharkytampy]

will you be doing the new centaur star ace kit phil too

[@sprueVerse]

Not this year.

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok fair enough. hope you didnt mind me asking

[@sprueVerse]

Never mind! I appreciate it!👍

[@sharkytampy]

have you preordered your medusa model kit yet phil

[@sprueVerse]

I have!

[@sharkytampy]

its around £160 though as well

[@sharkytampy]

is it ok to paint the x33 on phil as i havent got an airbrush and then do the patina effect with my pale green?

[@sprueVerse]

No problem at all - just don’t brush up and down - take a slightly larger brush and use dabbing strokes - this will allow the paint to get into the nooks and it will also blend better.

[@sharkytampy]

ok phil thanks@@sprueVerse

[@sharkytampy]

hi phil, dont know if you know but star ace are now releasing the skeleton army as a kit ie the children of the hydras teeth. ive asked them when its available but didnt get a straight answer so god knows. sadly i wont be buying it as it will be a cow to paint with all the different colours you have to do it in to get a decent bone colour

[@sharkytampy]

theyve told me as well in a message they will be releasing the minaton too but in the future so it looks like they are going to do kits of all the deluxe ones theyve made

[@sharkytampy]

did you get your medusa kit yet. i have got mine and will you be doing a video on it

[@sprueVerse]

Never arrived! I need to follow up. Just been to busy!

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse omg get that sorted out okay

[@sharkytampy]

let me know what happens. did you get it from star ace direct

[@sprueVerse]

@sharkytampy no Monsters in Motion - they are re-shipping another one.

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse oh thank god for that may have got lost in post

[@sharkytampy]

do you deal with dimensional designs models phil

[@sprueVerse]

I do not.

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok then

[@ChrisGwilliam83]

🖖🏻👍🏻

[@sharkytampy]

did you get my email phil about the medusa kit ?

[@sprueVerse]

I sure did!! Already ordered!👍🖖

[@sharkytampy]

ok lovely. sorry if i went on a bit ha ha and look forward to a video of it if you do one@@sprueVerse

[@sharkytampy]

was that bronze colour you used by tamirya 3x33 did you say ?

[@sprueVerse]

X33 bronze

[@sharkytampy]

@@sprueVerse ok thanks phil i,ll get a pot

[@sharkytampy]

yours went in really easy but mine just doesent fit

[@VincentGuastini]

Nice Job, please don't be offended I like Lou's, better. Telos was not mostly all silver.

[@sharkytampy]

that epoxy puty phil looks like vaseline ha ha and is it only available in america or can you get it over here in england ?

[@sprueVerse]

Look for light curing putty on eBay or Amazon - I’m pretty sure you can get it.

[@sharkytampy]

well im gonna have to tell you phil but this tamirya paint in bronze im doing my talos in as well is awful and really smells and reminds me of sherry. im lucky i havent drunk it ha ha

[@nigeldonaldson1647]

youre accent sounds very anglo American.

[@sprueVerse]

By way of Southend-on-sea!

[@beneficialmedia]

I watch you, Wayne and Lou because you talk about what you do and I learn new tricks. Channels with a non-contextual hand and some weird music only are boring.

[@sharkytampy]

im gonna send you an email about something phil ok

[@sprueVerse]

Cool!
