[@createscifi]

Hey all! Thank you for stopping by:) If you want to support my work, comment whatever you want as much as you can! It's the easiest way to boost the algorithm! CHEERS!

[@stuartcope4395]

Great job! I feel like a sticky note with passwords written on it, stuck to the console would be a real dazzler!

[@createscifi]

good idea , I was thinking snow globe or ship in a bottle

[@TerminalPneuma]

I would love to turn my room into a space ship

[@K-Anator]

[Palpatine voice] Do it.

[@MobileFilmmaking]

Me too...but my wife won't let me 😂😂😂

[@createscifi]

star small with like a desk area or something

[@lukeFugate]

I want to thank you. I am starting on my first short film. I have learned a lot from you, and it has given me confidence to try.

[@christosarcher8759]

I don't know if you've ever used it but really cheap RC car remotes work great for a fighter joystick.

That weathering looked great in the set lighting. The teensiest change I would personally make would be some extra black wash lain on kinda heavy at spots on and near to the front edge of the console. If this console has been in constant use by people who depend on it, but don't have the ability to do a full re-fit, there are going to be spots on the edge where folks rest their wrists against it. Skin oil, differing crew skin PH values and gunk will build up into a sort of fan-shaped dark impression. A couple of spots like that would signal to the audience's subconscious that someone has been sitting here for a long time. Especially if you point them out to the actor so they actually rest their hands there.

[@WarGamerGirl]

Nice work! It looks good sitting behind you against your Sci-Fi walls.

[@createscifi]

lol seemed like the place to store it :)

[@projectaroid]

Cool series. The console looks great. Can't wait to see it in the film.

[@createscifi]

me too!

[@seanmeadows129]

That was a great series of making the console, really enjoyed every episode. I will be looking forward to seeing it in your future production. Excellent work.

[@createscifi]

thanks so much

[@Wayne_Nero]

This is my favourite video you have done! Really well done and I am gonna steel your console monitor build technique 👍

[@jj_eringa]

An absolutely spectacular build!!! Shot a music video about 18 months ago where we built a whole spaceship interior for about £300. You were the main inspiration for the whole thing but this vid would have been a lifesaver!

[@Pablo453]

After working most of my adult life in those grundgy types of shops, I just can't bring myself to do weathering on clean stuff. 😂 Love your work though.

[@metajock]

Big Thank You again for this build. You've shown where I was clearly overthinking some of the display I'm doing for my game room, especially with the video readouts and blinking lights. Love what you do, thanks for sharing!!!

[@createscifi]

awesome

[@ryanworkman3032]

The official term for The backlit displays is okudagram after Ken Okuda the art director for Star Trek TNG who created the technique for making displays for the show.

[@createscifi]

Thats great info thanks

[@paulfuryes203]

I love your videos you truly owe did yourself on this one amazing.

[@createscifi]

kind of you to say so

[@Frankyshanks7718]

hey great build allways love watching your channel. You should do another kitbash ship that woild be cool, im actually making a 1980's styled sci fi film so this realy helped me out thank.

[@charlesforbin6937]

FAN-FLIPPIN-TASTIC..........

[@createscifi]

thanks!

[@PsychotoasterProd]

Since you make science fiction flicks in and around the LA area, have you ever had the desire to shoot at Bronson Canyon or Vasquez Rocks? I know it's almost stock footage (stock scenery?) at this point, but the cinema nerd in me would be hard pressed not to try and use them somehow. :)

[@createscifi]

I have in both places and they are already on my channel, The Bat cave!

[@DifferentPuppy]

Hey, man! Looking good. So, the "mystery piece" from part 1🤔 Would I be correct in thinking there is an easter egg in a video I just re-watched from a few months ago?

[@mobileupload4374]

Very cool

[@createscifi]

right on

[@crypts-sm9ob8dj5w]

Where did you get that chaser light?

[@createscifi]

hobby store Michaels or Joanne maybe Hobby Lobby one of them

[@joshhardin666]

Is it less expensive to cast 3d printed objects instead of to just print more of them when you need them? I'm just curious why you use that technique instead of just reproducing them?

[@grandkaiser1]

Not everything in Sci-Fi has to be dirty.... Star trek and the Imperial star destroyers and them bases had clean surfaces. Other than that you did a great job

[@createscifi]

True but in my sci-fi, everything has to be dirty. My preference :)

[@MiamiMillionaire]

Very cool, i like it 😁👍

[@createscifi]

thx :)
