Hi all after completing AMTs Christine model I decided to do a dio of the filming of moochie's death (where he gets squished in the loading bay .
I made a start on the base.
then of course i needed a bulldozer to push Christine into the loading bay. as they used in the filming of it. I tried to get a 1\24-25 scale dozer but they are about a hundred quid plus postage and i wasnt paying that so i thought i would get a 1\16 and see if I could get away with that, but as you can see from the pic no way
so my only option was to cut it down this next pic shows the difference in size after cutting the cab down
and here is my best shot at cutting it down
more to post tomorrow.
then i needed to do the scaffolding for the camera and lighting to go on
here is my scratch built panavision 35mm camera
there is so much room on the dio I thought it looked a bit boreing so I have decided to add a beverages trailer to the dio for the actors and roadies, and it will be towed by this poor old girl, i will just have to bring her back to life
I was eager to see how it was going to look when put together so I temporarily placed things where they will probably end up
the matchbox is where the generator will be when i've built it I still have another couple of cameras to build and the lighting rigs to build but this is where I am upto now I probably wont start crushing Christine into the loading bay till the last as I have to build up the courage to do the damage.
So what do you think so far.
