WIP King Kong

[MattMcK.]

This is a fun and gigantic piece, designed and 3D printed by Tony Cipriano sculpture. It’s about 1/20 scale but comes in at a whopping 22 inches tall. I’m still thinking about ways to customize it as I work.

Interesting Dio, I did a kind of thing with a Huge T Rex skeleton on a base with a Raptor figure.

My word that's large, one could almost say it's a monster! Sorry.
That is looking really good.

Maybe biplanes swooping around?

Maybe biplanes swooping around?

I really wanted to do that, but it’s about 1/20 and no one makes a Curtis Helldiver F8C close to that scale. There’s a real void in planes from between the two world wars. Considering building an extension of the building so it is free standing on the floor. A lot of work in that though

 

[Ned Ricks]

Could a smaller scale be depicted as coming in from a distance? My ramblings should not be construed as criticism, but are admiration for your project.

That's a definite possibility! Just tough to find the correct era Helldiver at any scale...

There is this one if you can track one down -

I love that the kit is a re-release of a 1934 kit. Still, nor quite the right model and a lot of work to make an old stick and tissue kit look right. Maybe I'm too lazy

I may have to if I ask my wife to display in the living room
