LOST - Jacob's Scale (COMPLETE Pixs up)

[Guri]

As the title says, I gotta have this. Still don't know how I'm going to make the stand, the dowel should be easy though and the rest of it is coming together pretty quickly.

Bought a package of two of those press and click lights for the disks. The chain was found at Michael's as were the black rocks.

Top center is the rest of the light I tested to get the rust look. I have a link of the chain in some water to see if it'll rust on it's own. Below is after I put the pieces together and used a candle to melt the plastic a bit.

Rust came out pretty good. This was web effect spray until it dried and then black and then before dried red acrylic and then some dirt to dull the shine:

Nice work! You going to have a LOST museum room in your house? Do it!

I was kind of surprised the rust looks so real myself - just with the paint I had laying around the house! Always good not to throw stuff away. :lol


Egon, That would be great! I would put my LOTR stuff in there too...

Hey, thanks guys for the feedback and encouragement!

I'm so glad Lost props are still of interest.

My next project is in the works: A miniature, table top 'The Source'.

Here are all the supplies I have so far:

And it'll light up:

When I get the base done and I'm ready to start building the cave, I'll start it's own thread.

 

[Larry Young]

Ha! I just noticed the Survival Blanket in your first pic!

That source thing looks like it's really going to be cool.

 

[MooCriket]

Guri, I'm really looking forward to seeing the "source" completed

 

[nickytea]

This is AWESOME!
Source diorama is a great idea as well.

I'd love to do a miniature stain glass window from the finale.

 

[R.P. McMurphy]

That is an awesome idea! That light up base is perfect. Can't wait to see your results.
