What are the exact measurments ???

Based on the info I have, 8.42" x 5.22" is the size for the visible portion of the photograph itself, not including the part that is hidden by the mat board. I don't have any idea about the size of the actual frame, but maybe that is enough to figure it out. I know for sure that it's larger than a standard 8x10 frame.

(The version of the photo and mat board that Gus has is close to A4 size at 8.27" X 11.69", which looks close to me.)

Thanks DB537

I found i nice wood frame wich is 20 x 30 cm wich is 7,87" x 11,8" should be a good start. I will post some pics after the weekend.

You should try to get a nearly 100% accurate frame, I tried different frames over the years for different prop pictures and believe me, a 90% frame is not satisfying...

Hey, if anyone gets the frame, and wants to partner for this prop, I will be in, and if you dont, well, sell me a frame so I can have this accurate item I been waiting for forever!!!

I agree, a partnership is a nice idea. But lets wait, what collector comes up with...

I noticed a couple pages back Merlin1974 uploaded the Mcfly family photos with the disappearing kids.

Well. a couple months ago during the BTTF auction, I found the following pics.
They are much sharper than Merlins and as I haven't seen anyone else post or mention they had better quality photos, I thought maybe I have accidentaly stumbled upon the Holy Grail of the Mcfly photo.

What do you think?

These are how I found them on the auction site and haven't yet had time to play with the colours or replace the missing grass.

It's not exactly the holy grail, those pics. I think they are pretty well known. They were part of a "profiles in history" auction with many more BTTF props. More info can be found here: Profiles in History Hollywood Auction 42 : BTTF.com

I started today with the small rose of the middle.

It´s my first attempt on sculpting something.

But I think for the first time it doesn´t look to bad.

Need to redo the paint job because i´ve got no silver here only bright grey.

I´m better in doing paper props, what do you think ???

Sculpt looks great! Are you planning to do a run of frames? Or is it just a "privat project"?

@ TomVDJ

When the sculpting is finished I will try to cast them in resin and then Gus and I plan a run of the complete frame including the Picture.

Looks awesome... Keep it up, if we got a full frame with ornaments like this Im sure no one will be unsatisfied with the end result...

Can't wait to see the finished piece...

 

[emhmark2]

Im very intersted if you do the frames. keep up the good work.

Ladies and Gentlemen


I proudly present my first sculpting expirience.

I photoshopped my Ornaments over the real frame that you can see what it looks like when the frame is finished.

So if everybody is fine with that I gonna cast the ornaments and then we are ready for a run.

Please tell me what you think
