Hi all!
I would like to show you my second graphic replica.

[Montagar]

Guys, this is not an interest thread. Please wait until he starts an interest thread in the Junkyard before stating your interest in getting one. Thanks.

 

[Tee]

Hey friends, no run yet

I've just finished the graphism.
I must make a prototype.
After we see.

But, many thanks for your interest !!

 

[Tee]

Montagar, simultaneously

 

[MrSinistar]

Looks great, Tee! The words "Korben Dallas" on the "message" portion of the notice look a tad too big to me. Other than that, it looks awesome!

 

[Aphius]

Lookin' smooth dude! :cool

 

[Tee]

MrSinistar, Thanks!
I'm not sure, I will check.

 

[Tee]

Lookin' smooth dude! :cool

Aphius, Thanks!!!

 

[smoothrat]

Very nice!

Looks like it needs another space between the NAME:^^KORBEN
and also ... CODE:^^HN576

I think the reason the name looks a little off to MrSinistar is that the font appears to be different on the original. Perhaps one of these, or something very similar:

 

[MrSinistar]

I think it maybe this one: Square 721 font family « MyFonts

I notice the missing spaces too. Thanks for pointing that out, smoothrat.

I'm also thinking you may have to squash and stretch the text in some places to get the dimensions just right.

Tee another one looking fantastic. As a fellow Fifth Element fan I have to say it's great having you on the forum making some beautiful props!

 

[desperado]

Absolutely agree with the Garthok! Dude, it is great that you are here and making unique and amazing props! Thank you very much!

 

[Tee]

Thanks all !

Thank you for your criticisms, it allows to progress towards the best possible replica. :thumbsup

I love The Fifth Element movie also.
Can't finding that kind of replica, I had to do it myself.

A funny thing about this that always bugged me a bit; Korben gets the message, and it is printed on the clear OUTER plastic envelope and not on the blank paper inside, and... why?

 

[Tee]

He take out the message to the envelope and puts behind.
You can see the message on transparent film is detached from the envelope here:

Aha! I always wondered about that! Man, I love all the details in the movie. LOL :lol

 

[TruBlood]

Good job on this. Can't wait to add it to my FE collection!

[MattMunson]

did you have any luck matching the font used for "Korben Dallas"? It looks like the same font used on the multipass. I'm curious to see if you found a perfect match for it, as I don't think I ever did. Then again, it's all a big blur by now

 

[Bowelrock]

Doesn't look like it.. The "O" is too round, As is the "S". In fact the letters are closer together on the film prop. close though.

 

[MrSinistar]

After looking at Eurostile again, I think smoothrat is right. It looks more like Eurostile Demi:

To me, the "R" is the dead give-away, when compared to the prop. Notice how the middle line of the letter "R" is lower compared to the middle line of the letter "B". The spacing between the "DA" and the "LA" also makes me believe this is it.
