What a great looking model. I have a brother who has been building models most of his life, but there is a key difference between him and me. He builds models from kits bought in stores, while I build mainly my own designs, from whatever material I have handy, just like you did here. And I have a lot of respect for your model building dude. There is something very rewarding about it, when you manage to get it done in the end. Awesome work!

[@felipegomez6729]

Hi,Red1 _Leader And thank you, so much for watching. It actually took approx 3 years in completing this model.NO FILES, DOWNLOADED PATTERNS OR 3D PRINT OUTS were used here...just, good Old Fashion Full Scratch building.and for what you're askin for the $...it's very difficult to say.

[@cameronbennett6721]

o well, I guess I will just have to hope for something on this ship from the clone wars remake as I lack the skill to do this kind of stuff... but I will be drooling over this video in the meantime as its awesome man!

[@felipegomez6729]

Might i suggest something? You could download the Papercraft one and print it out bigger, then glue the print outs on to foam board for the Hull and the tower and engine sections on to poster board(why the hell, didn't I think of this earlier LMAO) then cut and glue it together.you could even make one like this bigger than mine and put LEDs on the engines and make it look even better! and you can send me pictures later when you make it 😃

[@cameronbennett6721]

Felipe Gomez well I would do that but unfortunately I am not very skilled in that kind of stuff or I would try to get even the premade models but a combination of I'm to critical of my work and precision and I'm not very good at presicon or art so I just keep my eye open for anything in my budget

[@drlove1014]

Really? So the whole thing is paper, glue, and cardboard? That's extremely impressive!

[@felipegomez6729]

well, not paper.but posterboard.i didn't want it to be heavy. I wanted it to have the option of being displayed on a base or hanging.

[@felipegomez6729]

not the WHOLE thing.maybe 50℅ is.other materials were used such as Balsa wood,Aves Apoxie,styrene plastic and whatever materials I could find around the house that would serve he purpose.LOL

[@felipegomez6729]

Hey,Preston I built the VICTORIUS using the revell 12 in model and pics as reference and back then there were no papercraft models or anything of the sort,where you can now just,blow it up to whatever size you want.so,I "Eyed" mine out. I wanted it,7ft long (it's how I started with)then,I just began to distribute the width and height. I know that,theres a "Formula" out there that would give you the accurate dimensions,buy I was never good with numbers,so I "Eye"my models out. My suggestion;..pick the size for easier scale,draw it out roughly on paper and start from there.write down your measurements. I always start from the center and work my way out. and be patient! It took me about 21/2 years to build mine,..lot's of trial and error,as this was my first big sized model

[@Prest0n97]

@@felipegomez6729 Thank you! Considering there is very little material to go off of for this design I will have to do the same as you. dont even think they have a model for my ship to base it off of so pics will have to do.
