Advice/sources for backdrop building for Terminators.

I'll have a bunch of Hot Toys Terminators as well as 1:1 Endobusts, T-1000 claw, etc. to display. Rather than have a plain wall behind the shelves, I'd like to have something interesting. I've been searching for things to use and/or build without success. I want it to be a little bit 3D, not flat paper, but nothing that sticks out more than .5 - 1". Any ideas, examples, or direction? Thanks for any/all help in advance.

A cracked brick wall with some blast damage?

Thanks, that would be an easy one. I'm looking for ideas for something more like science fiction, technical, backdrop. I can't even find a picture of what I am looking for, but I appreciate the reply.

Something like the above, or the Sulaco tile below:

Well, I think I've found what I'm looking for, link and pictures posted for others who may also be interested. I don't know how expensive this is, but it does look cool.

I can see using something like this to put a 1:1 Terminator Endoarm on.

Possibly something like this behind the 1:1 Endobusts.

Display my collection of 1:6 Endoskeletons and Terminator related figures in front of this.

Use something like this to hide electronics, wires, or even as a closet door?

Use these as risers for smaller busts and props.

Of course, the cost of these may be prohibitive to use them, but this was the direction I was going in.

Rich, everything I could think of pales in comparison to what you've found.

Nice find on that aliendecor.com!
