Back in college, I dreamed of building my own walking hexapod robot—but back then, the parts were simply way too expensive to afford.

Today, that college dream is finally alive and walking on 6 legs! 🤖🔥

Best of all, I built this entirely using affordable components sourced right here in India—so anyone can replicate it, build it from scratch, and experience the pure satisfaction of bringing their own robot to life without breaking the bank! 🇮🇳🛠️

This is just the first test run demo in action! I’ll be dropping the complete video covering every single detail, component list, and build breakdown tomorrow/later.

My first complete DIY Marvel Thor epoxy resin model—and every single piece was crafted from scratch! ⚡🔨✨

This video only shows the final display, but here is a glimpse of what went on behind the scenes to bring the God of Thunder to life:

1️⃣ 3D printing the master parts and sanding down every layer line smooth

2️⃣ Creating precise multi-part LSR (liquid silicone rubber) molds

3️⃣ Casting each individual section and the translucent Mjolnir in epoxy resin

4️⃣ Assembly, detailed hand-painting, and comic armor finishing

5️⃣ Scratch-building the acrylic display box framed with custom 3D-printed edge bars!

Seeing raw liquid resin and 3D printed parts transform into a full museum-grade collectible makes every single hour of patience worth it!

The complete step-by-step transformation from raw 3D print to real mirror-finish metal! 🦇✨🛠️

Here is the exact workflow:

1️⃣ 3D print & thorough sanding for smooth layer lines 🖨️

2️⃣ Base primer coat + airbrushing copper conductive paint 🎨

3️⃣ Acid copper electroplating bath for that solid metal shell ⚡️🧪

4️⃣ Selective nickel pen plating for crisp silver highlights 🖊️✨

5️⃣ Buffing with Silvo metal polish & microfiber cloth to a liquid mirror reflection! 🪞🔥

Taking plastic and turning it into solid, shiny metal takes patience, but that final mirror reflection makes every step worth it!
