Alright, everyone, all shipping labels are made and crosses go out tomorrow! Enjoy, this was a fun project:clap
 
Just finished (for now, at least) painting my cross.

I've muted the yellow ocre a bit more since that picture, but yeah. . .

I'm really interested to see how IKE-CON gets on with painting blood. Not sure if I'm gonna do that yet, but I bet it looks fantastic.
 
My diorama is slowly taking form. It's the first one I've ever attempted.

I made the table base slightly the wrong shape (I thought the angle down was large, but it's not), but the lettering under the fabric is correct and says "DRACULEA" just a bit wonky - so, thank goodness for the banner/cloth!

Crappy iPhone shot:

I still have lots to do like finish the fabric for the table, dry brush and paint the walls etc. Plus I made a custom case that it sits in, so I need to finish the electrics - it has angled and defused lights plus the window is backlit.

Hopefully, it will all look passable once it's done. Especially with the armored version in there too.

Nice, you going to make the candles as well?

That looks awesome!

I've been thinking about it and coming up with ideas to make the metalwork without having to silver solder or braze them. If I do that, it will the the last thing as I have plenty left to do first.

Did my base with "The Blood is Life" as a tribute and to match the chalice.

Cool. A couple of months ago I took some screen grabs and could see the first letters were D&R and the last were E&A and I worked out by the spacing that it had to be DRACULEA. Then, by complete coincidence, I stumbled on a behind the scenes image that shows it perfectly. I wish I'd seen that first, but glad I guessed right.

That looks awesome!

Thanks :duff I'll take another picture when it's completed.
 
Just playing with the "Victorious" Cross.
Such a small moment in the film, but your accessory brings it to life.

"God be praised, I am Victorious"

By the way I got the castings of the detailed chalice by Caine.
I will start a thread if you like or I may just put them up
on my eBay store.

PM me for pictures if interested. I don't want to hijack this thread

Thanks Ike
 
Still waiting on the new heads to come back from the painter.
So I started playing around with the big cross.

Such a great set, glad you started with this one.

Here's Fullmetals sword plunged into the cross.

WOW. That looks great! I hope to see more soon with the figure maybe shipping soon.

I just finished the Otomix shoes last night, too. Just have to get a mold and cast so I can paint them up, then The Big Lebowski set is ready too!

Getting close to finishing. Here's a shot of the painted/weathered set.
Thanks again for doing this set.

I'm pretty sure DoggieDoc has the base and table mold still available if anyone wants them.
Originally I had that made for me, but it should be available for everyone.

One glaring error: I found out I did some thing wrong on the script.

Salvonic language during the historical time period of Vlad
did not include the word "The". I had pieced it together just by using letters and formatted it
in script that was Cyrillic. It says "The Blood is Life" as a tribute to the line in the film.


But I've been told by someone who studies historic languages, that technically you
can not make that phrase in Salvonic and my translation is English based and not really Salvonic.
Also that means they were saying it wrong in the movie. It would only be
"Blood is Life". But Hollywood is in the entertainment business and who's going to correct
Gary Oldman on that awesome performance???

So if you don't mind my mess up, contact DoggieDoc for the extra pieces.

Or maybe Doggie can put the historically accurate translation on the reverse side
of the table top. The guy said it would either be Salvonic or Latin to be accurate
and the script Cyrillic. So one of the 2 below would be more accurate "The Blood is Life" script.

Slavonic: КРЪВЬ ЕСТЪ ЖИВОТЪ

Latin: SANGVIS EST VITA

Or if you're wanting film accurate. That's a lot harder. He said the
cloth hanging over the table top had Latin writing on it and one of the letters
on the table script was a Latin translation. So that's one of the reason I
went with the Blood is Life " "

I still have plenty of Chalices remaining if you need them, PM me.

Thanks

Ike
