Tria's Set

[The Willoughbian]

Update 12/31/12 Done! This is pretty huge. I was scared I wouldn't be able to get it done. Anyhow here are some pics. Check out the Gallery for more pics.

Update 10/17 new pics. Still needs door handles, but I finally got the painting done on this beast. Only 3 more panels to go.

First panel is almost done. What do you think?

 

[Fled74]

Very nice! Any pics with a figure to show scale?

 

[The Willoughbian]

I was just lamenting that I forgot to put a figure in this pic.

 

[Slaymaker]

did you "carve" all those bricks? or is it prefab plastic sheeting?

I drew them on Dow foam with a knitting needle and a flathead screwdriver.

Here you go, Fled.... making me upload more pics....

 

[Dropshipbob]

Wow...that looks nice, great craftsmanship!

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Wow!..that's nice...what's Dow foam?...is it the same foam we've all been using just painted white?

 

[Keenan]

That looks great!

 

[The Willoughbian]

Thanks, guys.

Yeah. Blue 1/2inch foam board. Dow is just a brand name. It has a coat of primer on it.

Looking good! Can't wait to see them all assembled!

I think there's a tutorial somewhere that mentions the foams available.

 

[Monkeywrench]

Looking Great!

Yea it's a front page feature that's been in the works for 14 months or so :yawn:

 

[Slaymaker]

Wow! That looks great!

 

[unclassified]

wow will, so this is the dio you were telling me about.. this is out fucking standing..

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

I think there's a tutorial somewhere that mentions the foams available.

Douchè...I thought we had been referring to them as pink or blue

 

[Meddatron]

very awesome indeed. Great design and execution!!!

 

[The Willoughbian]

Thanks, guys. I haven't heard back from him yet. I hope he likes it.

 

[Tria]

Thanks, guys. I haven't heard back from him yet. I hope he likes it.

Its amazing! beautiful and realistic as well!

 

[The Willoughbian]

Got some work done on a couple more.

This one is close to being ready for the windows. Needs few more detail pieces added and some sanding.

I'm still thinking about this one. I really think it will need an awning to look right. Either that or mote. I'd really prefer it look more like a hotel or bank.

 

[Tria]

I really like them!
I agree with the bank concept
Looking forward to see them painted!

 

[Rick]

Great Architectural details!

 

[The Willoughbian]

Bumping for completion. (see first post) Yay me! Came out pretty good I think. It's roughly 2 foot by 4 foot. The jazz bar is my favorite. Anyhow, I hope Tria likes it. I'll cry if he doesn't.

 

[Slaymaker]

WOW!!! very very nice!

 

[Monkeywrench]

The finished set is very impressive!

 

[PROVOST]

To OP:

 

[Meddatron]

Truly Outstanding work!!

 

[Mandingo Rex]

Fantastic work, man. Some of the best building detailing I've seen. I want to see what you can do with a damaged building!

 

[The Willoughbian]

Thanks guys. It's gonna be hard to give up. It one of those things I could spend years adding too. Plants, awnings, lamp posts, weeds, signage, all kinds of stuff. That will be up to Tria I guess.

 

[Tria]

outstanding work!! I LOVE it!

 

[The Willoughbian]

outstanding work!! I LOVE it!

Glad to hear it, My Man!

 

[WildBill]

Whorry crap! Awesome!

 

[Fled74]

Phenomenal work! You should be proud, my man.

 

[The Willoughbian]

Phenomenal work! You should be proud, my man.

You know, not to sound too sappy, but I'm just grateful to be reasonably good at something I enjoy doing.
