Thanks!

Buahahhaa 😆 🤣 inception

The start of something big I feel…

[@CloneCraft]

Hello, for a long time I looked for how to manufacture my own clone army, but I never found anyone doing what you do for a long time, so I made sculptures of the characters but it was not what I wanted, I wanted them to be articulated but I wanted them myself do. here in my country, the Hasbro toy line went out of line very quickly because it didn't have that much public and I live in a small town and I couldn't find these action figures, at the time I was a child, I only managed to buy them when I was older and here These action figures are almost non-existent for sale. After a long time without thinking about it I looked up how to make my own clone trooper and found your channel on you tub Clone Craft thank you, from the bottom of my heart thank you ❤

[@CloneCraft]

Thank you for such kind words!

[@wwt17]

So sick!

[@CloneCraft]

Thanks so much!

Is this your first time making videos? All of these are really high quality and well put together videos for someone who just started 2 weeks ago

[@CloneCraft]

Thanks for the compliment about the video quality.I just try to constantly get better. From the first video to now, I have just been trying to get rid of things that annoy me when I watch them. The first video was like doing 5 videos because after every section was shot, I would go and edit the clips. This help to make the framing better over time. This video, I tried to improve items I wasn't able to do from both the other two videos. An example is the voice over work in the color video sounded weird, hopefully you didn't notice it here. Let me know if you have any suggestions on what to change as well, I would love to hear them.

Wow, so talented!! Love seeing your builds from scratch and appreciate the additional voice over work. Kudos man!

[@CloneCraft]

Much appreciated!

[@LivingLambeaux]

This is super cool. I paint on my trash can as well! lol

[@CloneCraft]

Trash can buddies!!! Thanks for the kind words man.

[@daydreamerdesigns3D]

Amazing work really well explained - I 3D print and paint Star Wars statues over on my channel so might give something like this a try.

[@CloneCraft]

Glad you liked it

Awesome man, let me know if there is anything I can help with.

Thanks so much!

[@ogzcollects2378]

another great video bro

[@CloneCraft]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@blairweatherby4090]

Jedha Patrol recommended your channel. Having watched this video, I can see why. You’re amazing & the trooper looks sooo good. Look out Hot Toys!!

[@CloneCraft]

wow, thank you for all the kind words!

[@George-go2gp]

Love seeing the whole process. I have a clone kit that I've been sitting on, and your videos make me think I can actually do a good job on them. Your step by steps make the process look easy.

[@CloneCraft]

i'm sure you can!

[@enriqueruiz9450]

Amazing video!!! I'm new to 1/6 clone customization and your videos have been super helpful!! Please keep making them and if posible do one of a clone commando!!!

[@CloneCraft]

Thanks for the positive feedback man. It’s rough just starting out. I can add a commando to a future build

[@TheTerangbulan]

I appreciate your videos! You have an additional subscriber now. Seeing someone's weathering process gives me confidence to try it out myself. I plan on repainting a 501st clone into a 181. Thanks for uploading! A question: when applying the vinyl tape, do you have any tips on how to measure up so both left and right are symmetrical, or is it just eye measurements all the way?

[@CloneCraft]

If you watch the kix video I did, you will see I actually mark the area with a caliper. In this video I eye balled the back, it’s not perfect. I would recommend using a pencil to mark the spots and tape accordingly. Like make just a few dots so you know where to place the vinyl dots. Good luck man, and thank you for the kind words!

[@joshgambles5555]

Would you consider selling unpainted kits for this? These look great

[@CloneCraft]

I’m flattered by your request, but I am sorry, I do not sell printed kits. You can check my other video out on how to 3d print for beginners if you are interested in that. A 3d printer costs under 200 for the ones that printed the armor in this video. Hope that helps and thank you for your support!

[@lawcreations6805]

New subscriber here, incredible custom process. Quick question, do the files for the armor come pre supported? I'm getting my first resin printer tomorrow and I'm really considering this process. Thank you, and I'm looking forward to more of your videos.

[@CloneCraft]

What printer did you get? If you join the fb group, we can do a hangouts if you want to get started

[@blakethebirdmeister5336]

Hey man, great video, very informative! I was wondering how much in materials it costs, roughly, per clone? Aswell as how long it takes to make one?

[@CloneCraft]

The total cost not including sunk costs (price for printer) is about 50ish dollars per figure. 3d printers cost around 190 for an ok one

[@CloneCraft]

One of the guys in the fb group says he can pump them out 1 per day…I’d say depending on the complexity prob 2-4 days

[@jonathanchan3027]

hey! i just printed my first set of clone armor with PLA. I’m not too familiar with sanding and i was wondering if one round of sanding with 400 grit sand paper would be enough?

[@CloneCraft]

Pla is going to be hard to work with, try using filler and then sanding that smooth. I tried that once and it was a lot of work. SLA or resin printers are the way to go with this

[@jonathanchan3027]

@@CloneCraft thank you! yeah, im definitely getting a resin printer in the future when space allows it!

[@maciejlekki6878]

Will you make Phase 1 rex in the future?

[@CloneCraft]

I could, next week is Alpha-17, which was going to be Rex, does that count?

[@camlon23]

Cool trooper! What 3d printer do you use?

[@CloneCraft]

For those I actually am using one of the cheapest printers out there. Anycubic mono 4k.

[@pmjr75]

hi great video! is that the same red used for the right bicep armor for shoretrooper?

[@CloneCraft]

Thanks for the kind words. The red paint is not the same color as the shore trooper, it was a random mix.

[@pmjr75]

@@CloneCraft do you know where I can find said red paint? Thank you

[@CloneCraft]

Maybe try posting in the Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/803736790555314/?ref=share_group_link

[@ka3nmnp]

Where you get a weapons, 3D-printed too?

[@CloneCraft]

You can print those as well, I just took them off some clones I had for the photo shoot.

[@juanmarioosvaldoramossolis4643]

excellent work, the truth is that I have several clones of sideshow and hot toys, every time the prices are sky high, but with this video I feel motivated to make my own Clones, a question and my intention is not to bother you, you created the file for 3D printing or can it be purchased on a website? Greetings.

[@TheTerangbulan]

He has a link to his files in his description

[@rickym2089]

I think i saw a link to that in the description of the video?

[@CloneCraft]

There are links in the description to everything I used for the build

@@CloneCraft Gracias, saludos.

[@CloneCraft]

thanks!

[@rgarci182]

do you sell the files.

[@CloneCraft]

Check out the links in the description for all the files that were used to make the build. Thanks for watching!

[@opr8r655]

Do you commission work?

[@CloneCraft]

unfortunately i do not, but if you join the facebook group, you will find a bunch of people there that do. facebook.com/groups/803736790555314/
