Fully 3D Printing & Building a Modern Toyota AE86 Initial D Styled model kit

Using the HeyGears UltraCraft Reflex combo set Resin 3d printer, wash & Cure station and also their fantastic UV resins. I was able to fully print and build a Modern/Futuristic interpretation of the Toyota AE86 designed by Blackbox STL

[@georgehicks_hicksbricksdesign]

Man it’s insane what can be done with 3D printing nowadays! Building models as a kid and wanting to customize things just meant kit bashing or building with putty. Would have loved the the capability available now back then. Looking forward to seeing more completely 3D printed builds.

[@OreWaGundam00]

this is what an EV version of AE86 would look like

[@laurenciozabala4296]

Oh wow, now that's what the real 2023 Trueno 86 should look like! 👍

[@syjeddryan2838]

Fast and Furious Eclipse can't wait 😁

[@vikingwarriorlofotr2988]

Now this looks like a homage to the legend ae86, not that Toyota branded Subaru they call gt86 😂

[@henrikdagil3684]

Lovely model

[@mr.minced7068]

Kinda reminds me of a 300zx because of the front look

[@thatbombninja]

Its beautiful and the printer does a great job . That printer is very different from what i've seen .

[@manierlinge7392]

This is super cool, really like the modern take on the AE86

[@ITman3Dmain]

Super. Great job 🔥🔥🔥

[@JackSupraMan]

Che spettacolo 😍😍😍

[@jerryjohnson4618]

I finally found your channel again. My power went out last week and i had to resubscribe to all my subscriptions.

[@vitalee4186]

Soooo beautiful 👍

[@ginomcfino4639]

looks like a porsche 944 custom, love it!

[@MASI_forging]

That is an incredible video.👍👍

[@fabricecrozat6722]

Very nice this new vision of AE👌👌👌

[@KarlScaleModeling]

That's awesome Tom! Been seeing this file on Black Box for quite some time and always wondered how it will look exactly once built.. now I know 😀 very interesting video too, was great seeing the whole process. Well done 👍🏼

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Me to! Now we know🤣

[@dannywiley4072]

I’ve got several things of Blackbox sitting on my desk now that I’ve been printing. Use their stuff for my slot cars.

[@goforitpainting]

Really cool

[@seymour86]

That washing machine is pretty boss.

[@Freestyler4130]

Looks great. I actually like the simple less micro detail build.

[@fabiorodrigues890]

Such a Beautifull model, looks great this design, and the rims are perfect

[@BMSThomas]

Damn I'd love to see this body on a GT/GR86 Chassis!

[@bmw53and85]

I have SEVERAL wheels sets from Black Box STL as well as his Mustang body kit. Pretty good designs. I like this video , I love how well you build and very clean.

[@MilfordHeavenMercadoPach-im7jk]

Nice job my friend on making very futuristic looking 86 as takumi's great great great kids are battleing kensue's great great great kids on mt akina so thank for the video and have nice weakend bye now.

[@jerrybailey5797]

Looks amazing. very much like a concept version of the Toyota AE86 . Woukd be great to see this as a production car 👍

[@keylitho]

You painting is amazing and inspiring... We really need a Mini Z Tesla Roadster..!!!

[@user-bx1kp1yq8z]

新しい86が、この形なら買ってた！かっこいい！

[@theintake8961]

I enjoyed this video very much! I'm going to look into these printers. My wife thinks it would be a good idea. Thanks for the video! 😎👍

[@JHartModelworks]

For white paint, I like to go with their Dark Gray panel liner. Kit looks cool. great printer review.

[@IILego_BatmanII]

that 3d printer & washing machine looks awesome. The 3d model looks great but only thing missing is the cup holder & tofu 😁

[@plastiksurgeon9129]

Excellent printer! The body came out VERY nice! I do a lot of 3D printing of bodies with my own files, and I tried printing a few times at .030. The body came out great, but WOW……did a take a loooong time! 🤯 I’m happy with the .050 setting…..a wee bit more sanding, but you gotta do that anyway no matter the subject being printed.

[@waza3350]

How much time it take to print a 1:24 body at 0.30 ? 2 days ?

[@plastiksurgeon9129]

@@waza3350 That’s unknowable without knowing which model. Depends on the tilt angle and the amount of layers. I can bet at least 20 hours or so if it was something like a Camaro or along that line, and it was tilted at 20° on the Y axis.

[@annavarapurajeshwari6799]

Where can we find such places in India

[@Gucci_Bwoi]

Great job printed at home, modelling future 🎉

[@yohkodevilhunter8292]

Nice job!! If you heat up the supports with a hair dryer, they come off really easy and much cleaner.

[@plastiksurgeon9129]

I soak mine in hot water for 10-15 minutes…….they come off pretty easily, but the body itself can be a bit soft, so you have to watch.

[@dogdoc1]

Maybe Gray Panel line would have worked 🤔. Anyway, it looks good. Now forward it to Toyota for a proper replacement.

[@Alex-vz2jz]

I wish then they modernize old cars they bring back the hard lines like what Hyundai did with the N Vision. This looks so good. Can you do the same thing the rest of the cars in Initial D? Would love to see the rest. Awesome video

[@shokata9923]

I called this car the the Toyota AR86 Sprinter Trueno GT-APEX, because the Trueno is back for glory, and you should ask Toyota to bring back the AE86 model

[@AlteredCarbons]

yo, this is freaking cool as hell man. this is like if a delorean and a ae86 had a 3 some with a new fairlady Z and this was the result hah. cool channel mang ill be subbing to watch , i love weird shit like this

[@channelmachinebroke9638]

If the gr86 looked like that and had a toyota engine id be a lot more interested in them. Great video!

[@AphAftonCrewGV10]

wow, nice AE86 Concept Modernize. cooler than GR86.

[@hibiky_saburo1157]

how to remove the support. try heatgun first. crispy and soft remove😊

[@user-gk9ut9qc1o]

This looks soooo good! Any imperfections become lost in the wonderful details

[@wrathofbod]

Great Job, that is a great model, would be great if it actually gets put into production as a real car, Gotta love a JDM Build.

[@apachehelicopterah64]

Especially since the “86” ISNT a very good AE86 replacement as it is a Celica replacement……

[@gavindavenport7095]

Looks great. I have a question on decals if you have the time.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

What is the question

[@zeroswings2]

better than the gt86/brz 1st and 2nd gen for sure... Toyota should've done it like this... yrs ago I saw a concept that looked very similar to this...

[@geejee1255]

the back is very cool, but front headlights should be bigger imo. nothings wrong with big blocky headlights

[@wilismatrix9847]

can you please make a tutorial on how to prepare the 3d model for printing ?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

There are multiple videos on my channel showing this: 3D Printing kzbin.info/aero/PLml5qXMU9oOT02oeuBh1QtMh9VJxnH7Bw

[@davidpawlik8351]

I have that file and was curious how it builds- looks great, thanks for showing us. Also would like to know what is the sanding tool used starting 4:41 ?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Dspiea rotary tool and sanding bits

[@RHC_NYC]

Question: Where does one find the mini rotary sanding disc shank seen at 4:40 (with the red electric rotary tool)? Thanks!

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Aliexpress The brand is DSPIAE

[@calvinrudolph4201]

Can you print costume rims

[@TheUncleRuckus]

That 3d printer system is pretty cool but idk if I like that it automatically dispenses the resin, that just seems like it would be one more thing needing to be cleaned after printing. Also how easy is it to get the unused resin left in the basin back into the Cartridge you loaded into the printer afterwards? Turned out nice 👍👍

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

You don’t have to use it, but you can. Same as other resins. Remove the cap, pour it back in

[@benjamin8399]

You can leave your resin in the tank, unless you have failure and need to filter or if you want to use another resin, you can leave it permanently in the vat

[@Lewis-jt9cq]

What Toyota should've given us (The GR86 is also cool tho)

[@GlitchSystem-xf7jb]

Funny. A number of days ago I was thinking why Toyota haven't come out with a new and updated version of the AE86.

[@Hongkongers20033]

😍😍😍

[@tanavsharma7558]

What tool were you using at 4:40 in the video? some sort of mini rotary tool?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

A mini rotory tool from DSPIAE

[@apachehelicopterah64]

I LOVE THIS BUILD!!! Will you be selling them on your site???

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

You can email me for a special order [e-mail]

[@marshallzachan5916]

What tool did you use to scribe around the windows for painting?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Tamiya panel line scriber

[@jeffreywong5112]

I'd buy a car like that in production version.

[@kievmiddeton2656]

Wish this was a real car!

[@ToriL97]

Tip for breaking supports. Leave your freshly printed parts in iso alcohol for a couple hours. Makes them very soft so when they break they don't damage the part.

[@karolapolinsantillan3804]

Excelente trabajo amigo quisiera saber dónde puedo encontrar los archivos de impresión 🤠

What happened to the Fast and Furious Eclipse build? Are we getting the rest of that series? My apologies if this was mentioned before.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

On pauze as i had other obligations to fulfill with sponsors and partners. It will get finished. But some other stuff needs to get done first

[@jeffreyboykin8902]

@TheScalemodelingChannel ah right on. Thanks for the clarification. I am looking forward to the conclusion on that.

Any idea who designed the model?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

[@groundedgaming]

I'm thinking of doing these stuff myself, but I don't have the money and can only get a base model Creality Ender 3. Is it also possible for me to make amazing models like this on my own?

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

For these kinds of models you will need a resin printer. FDM printers simply are not able to print the parts smooth enough en with crisp details

[@groundedgaming]

​@@TheScalemodelingChannelhmm okay then, but I don't really have a space to safely put a Resin printer. I've done research and a cheaper one is the Creality Mars 2? Is that okay enough? I'm not looking for super high quality, it's a comprimise I'm willing to make for cheaper.

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

@@groundedgaming elegoo mars 2 Its a bit small. A saturn is better for printing model kits

[@groundedgaming]

​@@TheScalemodelingChannelYea but Unfortunately, I can't afford more than $200 or I have to wait a very long time So Mars 2 is only one in reach for me. I don't really need the bigger models, 1:43 or even 1:32 or 1:36 is good enough for me. Is it an acceptable printer?

[@_ford_crown_victoria_p]

ok yes this is awesome but: even though it’s not like this at all, we literally already have modern 86s…

[@TheScalemodelingChannel]

Yes true, a GT86 or GR86 or just 86, not an AE86
