Looey's Movie News

In Puppet film news... I might have mentioned I've changed tack a little and I'm working on the stand-alone bunker scene.

I'm currently putting in 1/12 scale skirting boards. I decided not to use existing photos or AI for the pictures on the wall. As such, I've modified research photos in Photoshop and printed them out on A4 paper. I then used a lightbox to trace them onto art paper and do each piece as a coloured pencil drawing.

Then it's a quick scan and back into Photoshop for tweaking and printing out at the tiny sizes I need.

Cheers
Looey
Oz Base

... Plus some propeller and plane work.

    1. I've almost finished my flat-pack Fuhrerbunker, just furniture, internal blast doors and lighting to install!
      I intend to display it at this year's Doll and Miniatures show in May
      ( which might set the cat amongst some pigeons!)
      Then I need 3 background puppets and two hero ones, for greenscreen performances.
      So... filming is " later this year"!
