Model Playset - TTA, Gundam, Macross, Votoms Whatever!

Puma_Adder - I see you noticed the Jaguar Vulcan.

That is my most prized posession.

Division 6,

Some of the shots show 1/144 models, while I have also created buildings for some old Popy toys I've had since a boy, the scale of those is about 1/400.

I made the backdrop to work with scales from 1/72 down to 1/400. Buildings of different scales can be added. 

My kids aren't really aware of scale, but I like photographing my latest Gundam models and using the set as a Diorama.

I used to have a lot of the Takatoku Macross toys.

Assorted Votom, Orgus, Giant Gorg, Aura Battler Dunbine, Some other stuff till some A-hole emptied my strage unit about 10 years ago.

Eric... 

I have one or two of those 1/144 macross valks, but I have a bunch of the 1/100 vintage ones.

I like your idea of using the foam board for a diorama, looks really good, interesting variationf rom what were used to 

Those are great.

Might come in handy when ever I get around to building and finishing off some of my vintage Macross Models.

What's the rough scale on those.

IIRC most of my models are 1/144 scale.

Thanks for the link.

Hi, Eric,

The buildings of the Playset are made of Foamcore, and the backdrop is made of Mounting Board. I created the decals using Photoshop and printed them onto A4 sticker paper.

I used a hot glue gun to "weld" the foamcore together. The 2 large sections of the backdrop have a hinge that is simply "invisible" sticky tape, and the hangar sections slot into place. The whole thing folds up and the buildings can all fit onto a small(ish) shelf.

If you want to have a go, I have posted instructions and my decal sheets here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/30029551@N06/collections/72157614158860278/

You can use just sections to build a smaller Diorama, or customise them to your own requirements.

The good thing about building stuff like this is that it doesn't take long to build. The whole thing must have taken me 2 days. (The decals too the most time, they took about 2 weeks to get right).

Very Cool.

Totally digging the theme.

Has the right look especially the pic with the Super Valks and the Red Shoulder VOTOM.

What's if made out of?
