That is insane! When I first read through all the old posts, I was baffled that this was your first miniature build...until I saw the architectural school part. It all makes so much more sense now. I love it.

TS uses a combination of 3d sculpts, backlights, and projection mapping for all the motion. I'm curious how they pull it off when such a small space, excited to see how your thing goes.

[ Edited by: 3vab 2020-01-31 11:35 ]

3D Sculps. CHECK
Backlighting. CHECK
Projection Mapping.....Negative Ghost Rider. I'm going to skip that component. Too tricky for the space where its going. Its looking ok so far. Will post update soon.

Trader Sam Window about 60% done. It’s been fun working on it. My daughter has been helping and as a result all sorts of people are showing up on The Island. I’m starting to get a Hammer Horror Film vibe from lighting effects...an unexpected but not unwelcome effect.

I apologize for crappy photo orientation...will fix in next post.

Mahalo!
