Harry Potter 5 (Umbridge's Proclamations)

[UnusualWizardry]

Thank you for taking the time to make these! You've done an amazing job. Are you planning on doing any more Potter props?

Yes, i actually have a few things from "Weasley's Wizard Wheezes" in Half-Blood Prince that i'm working on at the moment. Then, ill see what else I can do. With all the Harry Potter props I see that I COULD make, they'r either decently easy, or quite hard. So, since im still kind of new to prop replicating, im sticking to the easy stuff for right now. IMO, Most of my better work of Prop replication actually isn't my Harry Potter stuff, but my "The Lovely Bones" props im making. They're extremely less noticed than my Harry Potter stuff, but I myself favor them a bit more than the Harry Potter stuff, because they were actually a bit more challenging, despite looking less cool. The Proclamationwere challenges however as they took a few weeks to get together, but yeah the entire point, I will definately be making more props, for right now either "Harry Potter" or "The Lovely Bones"

EDIT: I've also deciding to start doing some random paper props from NBC's "The Office", NBC'S "Heroes", and CW's "Smallville"

Hey guys, i have an update regarding my set of Proclamations. First off, i'm really glad about the reception i've gotten about them. They're all very positive, so that makes me feel better about them, but unfortunately the entire set with the exception of the 5 in the free paper prop forum has been deleted, but i'm actually prud of this, because it gives me a chance to start from scratch again, fix my mistakes, update things, etc. etc. So in the coming days i'll post little updates as I do them. Thanks for all your support and I hope to have a set of Proclamations as big as we can possibly have.

Nice work on these, the extra attention to detail shows. I worked on potter 5 and got to handle a few of these in the frames. Well done!

Hmm, Noble Collection sells Proclamation boards...however i don't know if they're actual size. If they aren't then all one would really have to do is do some proportions to match the section for Proclamation on the "Noble" board, and size every thing up by the factor you get from the proportion. Sizing isn't really the problem, it's more of how you'd go about making which would be a bit difficult. And remember in the movie, they also have thin opening doors with glass pane and padlocks on them (I doubt the Noble Collection dry erase board version of the Proclamation board has a door, but still)

ya i started working on the measurements today. paused a part of ootp and took all the measurements, and i mean ALL of them. lol i also got the eye hooks, a chain, and the hinges, tomorrow i'm going to get the wood and begin working on it. will update progress on this thread in case anyone is interested.

 

[jazzygeoffery]

[jazzygeoffery]

Looking very nice.

I have one from the movie and making a frame is somewhere on my list to do. Nice to see somebody doing one.

 

[jazzygeoffery]

Thank you is been quite difficult, as I've seen no one else make one, and theres very little refernce photos, but its coming along. And you have a screen used proc. poster? thats pretty cool!

I do, in a tube somewhere. waiting for me to build a frame.

 

[jazzygeoffery]

I also have a screen used one. It's called eBay. It's not a DIRECT screen used, it's a scan, but it's the same size and everything.

BTW, the Frame is looking VERY Nice!

I actually have PREVIOUSLY made a set of 16-19 Proclamations from Ootp, i've taken them all down though in order to revamp them and give make the best replica i can, one of them is the scan of the screen used scan that i have.

In fact I bought it from a member here...

Oh ya, hows that going? The ones you had up earlier were so great, i can't wait for the new ones!

They're going awesome, and they're going to be WAAAAY better, i made those previous proclamations before i was introduced to vectors, and some of the fonts were off, but now they're going to be EXTREMELY clear, and waaay more accurate than before. And like i said im hoping for 20 Proclamations when i'm finished.

 

[jazzygeoffery]

NICEEE! I can't wait! When are you expecting to finish them?
