The setting
I wanted a base to film and take photo’s of the final model on. In the past I made these massive meaning I started to run out of space to store them. I made an A5 version of the base but I pretty much cheated my way here.
I needed to make bases and knew I could cut circles out of the base to make bases. Thus saving me time in Fusion 360. I borrowed elements from the battle mat in the starter kit and the sides of the card buildings you get to make a scene.
I did however also need to mount this on something solid so made a thin box out of MDF and laser cut this along with the window you can see. Assembled everything and painted quickly using stippling and airbrushing along with hand painting the tiles and gradients. This didn’t take long and is quite rough in places but I feel it adds a lot to the end photo’s which will probably out last the physical model.
Oh and the pink sign was made pink to contrast the use of Magenta. it was on purpose and I still think it looks good.
