OVERPOWERED - Paper GE90-115B Engine Model Timelapse

[@MrSteamDragon]

The fact that most of the detail is hidden inside when its finished, to me, demonstrates a passion beyond comprehension. 👍🏻

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thank you! A lot of the structure is hidden, but some of it is still visible when the thrust reversers are deployed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5fHdWCbqNWdmNEsi=PnANphV6jIeMqF1K

@@lucaiaconistewart 😳 … i think i need to take another look at my modelling… one can simply not ignore such inspiration. 👍🏻

[@janamshah414]

MOM WAKE UP, LUCA JUST POSTED AGAINNN

[@SAG1028]

The fact that you cut that stuff out by hand and not use a Cricut or a laser cutter is insane. Your channel should have over 1M subscribers.

[@TiagoFilipeCabral]

just got another one now

[@o0Adun0o]

That’s how we built things back then buddy 😂 technology makes it easier but less fun sometimes ;)

[@paulrob86]

Cutting by hand is all part of the enjoyment

[@LupinTelegar]

When you showed the model had moving parts I literally swore out loud. This is an insane level of detail and work. Amazing.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

i too swore out loud many times while building it 😂

[@nicholaslee4669]

I still cannot comprehend how one person can be so talented 🤯

[@AnoNymous-nm6mm]

I'm always blown away by your work. Thanks for the amazing documentation

[@JetBlastPone]

Chill bro a paper model of 777 engine won't blown you away ;)

[@nikkipaperart]

amazing as always. As a paper artist i'm blown away with your technique, thank you for sharing the process, it inspires me more to work on my skill out of my comfort zone and the soaking of water and patiently molding the paper, man you're a master of this art not to mention precision and the engineering with this built. i also love the way you film your work.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thank you so much! Cheers to paper modeling haha

[@MapedMod]

Oh wow! Just recently I was thinking about some guy that years ago made mechanical landing gear out of paper that inspired me to start working on foldable paper contraptions and pop up books. Today Tom Scott reminded me of who that was! Thanks Luca!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

yep, still at it. thanks!

[@will11m]

It's really cool how those turbine blades are formed out of a single crystal of paper.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I wasn't sure if they were gonna work out at first, but the wetting technique really helped.

[@damirmejric3441]

This video blew my mind and made my day at the same time... I've been scratchbuilding for some years now, but your skill to turn paper into a semi-functional jet engine is just mind boggling... Kudos.

[@cuber9320]

I thought it was a really old video at first, just because of the integrity and quality content.

[@stachelsamurai]

These are god tier levels of skill. Amazing job and dedication.

[@fishbarbeque8540]

This is better than all KZbin videos on KZbin combined, YES I made two comments and Im proud and I would do it again, this build is INSANE!!!!!

[@CATel_]

No way.... An edited and music's video just for an engine!? You're spoiling us!

[@lesterdelacruz5088]

Luca. I'm so glad to see you now have a youtube channel. I saw a video about your airplane 6 years ago and it's been so inspiring. I'm so happy you have you a dedicated channel to see more of your work. Inspirational.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thanks so much! Sadly I have very little time to devote to it these days but maybe I'll have it done by the time I'm 40... hahaha

[@Pake154]

One word......MESMERIZING!!!!!! Fantastic, congratulations beyond understanding.

[@jamesbarbour8400]

There are no words to adequately describe this chaps' skill level and attention to detail. Was especially impressed by the technique used to create the double curvature intake fan blades, and the little male/female press tool for that.

[@msmith2961]

Its absolutely ridiculous how good this is! So many tiny, fiddly bits and all cut out by hand! Bravo! Music sync with the hand movements was mint too!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thank you!

[@JR-jw3px]

I am part of global supply chain supporting GE Aircraft Engines. I know this engine family well. The fact that this replica constructed from paper and is so accurate is amazing. Bravo

[@lucaiaconistewart]

that's awesome - thank you!

[@magran17]

Just like a gold medal winner at the Olympic Games, you make it look easy. Amazing artwork.

[@spherical.grunt71]

Easily the most underrated channel on KZbin!

[@controlledburst]

Agreed, horribly underrated. I think people prefer daily entertainment. I LOVE that we get these jewels in the methodical timeline expected any artistic masterpiece.

[@KBilt92]

2:53 to 2:57 Aligning those concentric paper cones at that scale - I've tried something like that in the past and it frustrated the daylights out of me. Not to mention those other parts with even finer precision. Hats off to you for making it all come together!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

it was super challenging, and actually the one you see me putting together in the video is not the one I actually ended up using 😉 thank you though!

[@connormartin9644]

This guy is an absolute madman. Functioning thrust-reversing mechanism, out of paper. The whole thing is simply incredible... Great Work!

[@TheColleenDabeanShow]

Yeah, the moving parts with hinges just takes this to a different level. Bravo.

[@dl8cy]

Once I saw this build, I understood exactly how the thrust reversal works, thank you very much!

[@airplanes0017]

This is the best video I have ever seen, and will ever see again.

[@dougmackenzie5976]

I built the real thing for 18 years, from the start of the program to around the 600th engine. Nice paper version!!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

That's awesome, and thanks!

[@Ogre19110]

wow, man that`s incredible amount of work. And result looks just amazing! Keep going!

[@Connor.Macleod]

I don't care if it started with a printout. The skill, precision, patience and attention to detail to complete this work of art is incredible. Luca; I'm very happy I was recommended your channel. You have just earned a new subscriber and anyone visiting your channel should be subscribing too. I'll certainly be informing all of my friends about your channel. I wish you all the success in the world. God Bless You, Luca.

[@Y13A]

I love how the moving parts are so cleanly integrated - there's even a cover flap for the thrust reverser switch! So well thought out. Super impressive how even with so many parts there is not much mechanical play. The attention to detail is inhuman honestly. Kudos on a true work of art!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thank you! I love designing little details like that to preserve both the aesthetics and functionality.

[@jstephenallington8431]

You realize that most humans would absolutely lose their minds even attempting something this intricate, don't you? Wow!

[@The_Juan_Percent]

Much respect, it takes the patience of a saint and the skill of master engineer.

[@hyper1071]

@@lucaiaconistewart I’d assume you’re doing this in between your work life, so 10 years isn’t bad going! Don’t rush the wing! Enjoy the process.

[@garyt4394]

It's good to see you again. The intricacy and detail of all those tiny parts, covered up to never be seen again, is truly mind-blowing! It must be so satisfying having it all documented, though?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I struggle with whether to cover it up, but ultimately I want it to look realistic and I enjoy making the skin as smooth as possible. You can however see many of the details when the thrust reversers are deployed, check out this video of the first engine: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5fHdWCbqNWdmNE

[@garyt4394]

@@lucaiaconistewart - Thank you for the reply, and the link.

[@EricStrebel]

Fantastic of course! I would recommend a laser cutter, it has fundamentally changed how I build models like this. Your precision will increase and your work time will decrease as well. Your ability to make small incremental changes is increased exponentially. You will be impressed. Great work of course, I totally approve.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I've used laser cutters before (not for any of my paper models) and they can definitely be a timesaver, but at the end of the day I just prefer cutting by hand. I actually enjoy the process 🙂

[@EricStrebel]

I watched Luca building sections of his Boeing 777. Unless you’ve constructed card models, it’s impossible to appreciate his genius. The Boeing engineers were blown away by his functional reverse thrusters on the 777’s engines! This man is the Mozart of card modelling!

I don't even know what to say anymore. Your level of detail is insane. Really amazing work! How do you make the little pins for the mechanical parts? I always struggle getting things like that properly round and also not have it break after moving it a few times and you're doing it at such a tiny scale. Truly mindblowing as always!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I delaminate the paper to "single-ply" (ish) thickness, coat it with glue and roll it up. Once it dries it becomes incredibly hard and durable. I'll upload a longer video at some point-I had to cut certain parts out of this one for the sake of time.
