Rex,... That is D y o m i t e!!!
Great work on the set. Like the weeds and all the props are spot on. I hate diolouge bubbles, it takes away from the photos in this type of dio.
Only thing I could say is, it may need is some loose debris like a little granular sand, real small and some shreaded paper for wrappers and the such.
Jumping out of the trash dumpster is classic!! Is that part of Budds training I wonder. How long can you stay in a fat and maggot infested dumpster instead of underwater in a pool.
Thanks man, means a lot considering you're one of the jerks here who got me obsessed with dios! My girlfriend thanks you!
I know, I would like to have more trash and tiny beer cans/bottles. I actually have a bunch of in-scale newspapers that I need to weather more, but they're too crisp white right now. I also have been meaning to make some trash bags, and I considered sculpting some tiny rats and just random garbage. Maybe next round I'll have those? And guttering, maybe some signage. I'll reconfigure the street for the next shoot.
I do need some sand and stuff, but I shot this indoors on carpet, and would get crucified if I used that.
first, whats in the crate?
second, after another looksie, what'd ya use for the blast from RBs gun?...or is it 'shoped in? cause it looks like you have some bullets hitting the bricks too...really cool detail...
third, what'd you make the lamps above the doors out of?
The crate's full of Eddie's heterosexuality. Or what's left of it. I dunno really, I didn't plan that far ahead. A McGuffin Device, or glowing golden light?
RB's gun flare and the "p-ting/p-ting!" marks on the wall are photoshopped in. As was the blood (I know, cheating!). I tried to put some fake blood on the foam, but it soaks it up because it's too porous and turns anything gray or lighter into a pink color when washed off, even with some clear-coat applied.
The lamps are cut styrene for the post/arm, with an upside-down bowl from Michaels (in the dio section, there's like a Native American pottery set) and a clear bead for the bulb.
