Thank you both for your kind words! Yeah I also saw a bunch of Crown replicas, and most of them are only giving the impression of the real crown, but once you start looking at the details it just looks like some other european crown that resembles it. I think I wouldn't finish the Imperial...

Agree! From the day one this nano-suit nonsense doesn't sit well with me. No matter how advanced the technology is, it can't give you the possibility of fitting two fully powered, fuel-filled, jet engines the size of your torso that can fit inside your palm once folded.

On the topic of fan edits, has anyone seen this? There's a guy on Reddit that's doing Kenobi theatrical cut with fixed VFX. Seems cool so far...

Here's one question that just popped into my mind randomly: In ESB, when Luke is escaping on the Falcon and Vader calls to him through the Force, why did it sound like mechanical voice and not Anakin? Sure, could be it's for the audience, but nonetheless...

Beautiful, can't wait to see it!

Don't forget "Filoni/Favreau fraction is planning to retcon the Sequel Trilogy". Any time now...

And don't forget the biggest and dumbest of them all: "Hold your fire, there are no life forms. It must have short circuited." If that can get a pass, everything else can :lol:

In in-universe logic this is just a life-support equipment with intimidation purpose in its design. Since it's being used frequently, and mostly in battles and harsh environment, I wouldn't be surprised if it changed on a monthly basis a bit. That's why I don't have a slight problem with his...

I'll just leave this here.

Now I can forgive them slight logic flaws and inconsistencies. To be fair, the same criticism can be applied to OT as well. But to me the biggest problem of the show(s) so far is the lack of classical music themes established in the OT and PT. Maybe they're saving it for later for bigger...

Way better episode than the first one. Still have my reservations about some things, but let's see where this goes... Anyways, who figured out it was Tosche-Station nod in this one?

And a turntable of the whole thing :)

And here we are, a bit more than a 5 months down the road. As described above, after the printing was over, and a bit of sanding and acetone smoothing, the Crown was gilded with gold leaves and then properly jewelbashed. Pictures will tell you everything else:

It's a bit unusual to post real-life replicas here, but I always found it so fascinating I planned to make one for years. Now after seeing The Crown, and Adam Savage's fun build of one, I decided my time has come. My approach to this is to 3D print the base/frame of the crown in ABS, which will...

Hi everyone! After some two years of owning it, I finally managed to find time to tackle down this modelling project. One of the reasons is a planned home theater that I will make this summer, and it will need a couple of nice looking models to populate it :p My end goal is to make this Avenger...
