Painting The Mandalorian Premium Format™ Figure | Behind the Scenes

[@Rcflex1]

Love this series of behind the Scenes focusing on the tremendous talents of these artist that bring these figures to life thank you sideshow for giving these tremendous artist from painters, photographers etc the appreciation they deserve, that without them these collectables would not be possible...well done sideshow and thank you for a marvelous series.

[@thelonepainter4760]

Do you have Doom figures for sale???

[@Gmon750]

This is why pieces like these cost so much. I appreciate the art, work, and effort that these artists put into these pieces. Great work!

[@germansnowman]

These are the prototypes. The actual products are not painted by these artists.

[@jamesa1995]

the actual ones are definitely painted by cheap chinese labourers, you can even tell this particular model is 3d printed as you can see the layer lines

[@The_last_prime]

@@jamesa1995 really? I always thaught they were factory painted by machines lol

[@SweetTorment72]

It's still just a piece of cheap plastic, I don't care how many layers of paint they put on it. They should consider another material with some weight and quality feel to it.

[@emackenzie]

​@@SweetTorment72 there's still likely hundreds of hours of labor behind it for both sculpting and painting- a more expensive material would _add_ to the cost, not 'justify' it

Their ability to pull detail out of resin is inspiring. You should see about a collab. Most of these videos are procedural, I would like to see tips, tricks and products based video. sounds like something right up your channel's alley.

Okay, I'm not only gonna freak out by the amazing talent of the artist, but will also point out the great talent of the editor of this video. Oh my God that was really well recorded, organised and edited. Amazing work guys!

[@DuoFurey]

@@mandocalrissian6454 Hot toys stuff is very posesable unlike sideshow which is a big plus to hot toys. Sideshow is more akin to prime1studios because they are just statues. Prime1 being much better but the price difference shows.

[@starscream6209]

This is amazing. Discovered this series when i was learning to paint my Warhammer minis. There is so many good and neat tecniques that can be picked from such videos and be put to use in any other painting. Thanks a lot! Feel free to make more of those :D

[@benjaminkenobi21]

The end result here is astounding.... excellent workmanship

[@tamaboy311]

and this is why final products dont come out like proto. because the level of care and time is never applied in factories.

Yeah some of my paint jobs have been questionable on some of mine.

[@kevingolden2407]

Some really interesting techniques you don't see from some other painters--flicking a toothbrush for mud/oil splatters, spritzing alcohol, sea sponge for softening washes. Nice!

[@thetigerman]

Now this is a master painter 🎨 🙌 👏

[@StarWars100Interviews]

Fascinating to watch. So the master does the proto, then onto the factory. Is there a chance of touring the factory? I just wonder how many people are included in the task of bring each figure to market? Awesome work!!!

[@Jauphrey]

I never once questioned by these collectables cost so much but now I feel like I'm ripping THEM off. I've been painting for a long time, but the relaxed confidence these guys exude really shows how much experience they have. Wonderful series!

I am fairly new to the hot toys Star Wars collectibles. When I first place my pre-order for the Kenobi series version of Darth Vader I could not believe how long they said the wait time would be. Now, after watching this video I have a whole new appreciation for the amazing talented people with this company that do things by hand. This is the first video that I have watched about the making of and I am blown away. What a wonderful bunch of craftsmen and women you have doing the beautiful work. New subscriber, new customer. Very impressed

[@carbonitegamorrean8368]

These guys are amazingly talented. Wish I could do 1/10 of that.

[@CollectingWeekly]

Just curious, why freehand airbrush the visor after applying alclad? I feel like even with a super precise needle you’d get overspray around the visor which would likely need to be touched up. I ask because the first coat is already gloss black after primer. Wouldn’t it make more sense to liquid mask or tape mask after that and then pull it up? Seems a bit less risky then what’s shown. Just curious as someone who also paints!

[@karangrewal7950]

I was thinking about the same thing, pretty odd method of painting the visor

[@HernanZote]

El tema Dust to dust está impresionante!!! Las descubrí hace poco y quedé alucinado

[@Truthteller024]

I'd like to see someone do a "hue shift" paint job of a character like this. Basically, take that character, put them in Photoshop or other software and shift the hue to where it looks strange and alien, and then paint the figurine with those hue shifted colors, but using all of the same techniques for texture and weathering that you normally would for the same materials.
