Hi.

Some pics of our latest (rather big) project.
50 large buildings on the floor of three rooms in an apartment (notice the custom made wallpaper)...

Looks awesome. Just doesn't seem very playable past line of sight x.x. More on how they were made would be kick ass.

That is intense. Amazing... now your arbites have a real city street to patrol.

Doesn't look like people fit in the room all that easily.

I think you need a Imperitor titan to stand next to the buildings.

But wow...

"rather big"!!!!??

"Insane" is bandied about too freely in modelling forums, but in this case, it really fits. A whole room full of amazing, waist-high buildings? ZOMG. The mind boggles.

Gorgeous! I love the scale and overall high quality of finish. Just plain fantastic.

Looks pretty modern so I imagine you can use them convincingly for any sci-fi or even modern game.

To be honest I thought you had access to scaled sets for a movie or tv show's special effects sequences based on early 90's pre-CGI effects.

Great work!

Correction: Three rooms. ;-)


>Theme Park!

Yes, of course (including rollercoaster).



>More on how they were made would be kick ass.

Will post info regarding constructions + pics of the final set up.
They are still W.I.P. finishing touches, rubble, the streets and lighting (all houses will be lit from the inside) still remains.
Hopefully we will be finished by Tuesday (seven people working 24-7).


>Was this actually in Manhattan?

No. In Skellefteå, Sweden. But the set is Manhattan-esque. Sorry if I was unclear.


Thanks for all the kind words (sometimes it is nice to be called insane).

Wow!  these buildings are truely amazing.  I know you are busy now, but could you possible do a step by step construction of one of the buildings when you have the time?  I would love to see how you go about casting a 5 foot high sky scraper, and how you you go about decorating it.

Again, truely amazing stuff here.

Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

Which ghame is this for. It doesnt look 40K scale, more like 1/72nd.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

Will all this be used for actual gaming, or are you just shooting a giant monster movie?
