Re: CTO's Attempt at repaint/customs :)

So after watching TDKR, I had to try my hand at making a diorama in one of my favorite scenes in the movies






So since I'm a student, the biggest challenge was doing this diorama at a low cost (hopefully free )


So luckily I had some foam board (from promotional signs) that I got from working at a retail store awhile back





I really wanted to incorporate the bank to this diorama, just because the scene where [SPOILER]Bane breaks Batman's mask from just the vicious beating with his fist[/SPOILER] was sooo memorable.



Too close out the gap from the bank to the vertical wall, I used some large cardboard paper and covered the entire bank with lip

So to simulate the grates in the walkway, I used plastic mesh (that's used with yard to make little ornaments, etc)





Also started work on the stairs

Woke up early and finished painting the stairs



Now to start the water effect. Probably going to be the hardest part

Re: CTO's Attempt at repaint/customs :)

I started to lay down plastic sheets (used from plastic food containers, pop bottles, etc) to use as the main structure for the water





I might have to re-work the edges a bit
