Orange Hoverboard

... I also decided to replicate the surface material slightly (as Roland did with his faux lenticular), by adding a slight bevel to the "holes":

That's a great idea to add bevels to the holes. When I made the design, I was thinking more about dots than holes, because they had to add a black decal under the yellow/orange one or had to paint the surface of the board in black, if it was holes. But I like the idea of holes.

Ah yes! Perhaps the material has a dark backing on one side or perhaps a black layer of material underneath.

I tried to keep the bevel slight so it wouldn't be too noticeable or distracting, but I feel it adds a little to what would otherwise be a very flat detail.
 
By the way: my last name is Zubcic. ;)

Oh my, apologies!

I rewrote those lines a few times as I wasn't sure how to word the credits. I must have misspelled it one of those times and never noticed.

I'll fix it when I next open it up.

Edit: This has now been rectified on my last two "preview" images above, and on the final files.

Hello there! Love your work! I just got a hoverboard and flux capacitor to get signed by Christoper Lloyd next month :) Is it possible to commission you for the pink handlebar for my board? Thanks in advance for your help!
 
I know it's been a long time but here's my mock-up of an orange board..
made from mwhelan25's pictures of a BTTF123 board in the MattyCollector "Mattel Hoverboard" Discussion

I know the texture of the board is probably wrong based off of the Planet Hollywood pictures..
it's just a personal preference to match the pink

Newer version on right.. What do ya guys think?

Found another pic of the orange board online, only a small part of it tho. This photo is also on the extras on the Blu ray!

Sorry to go slightly OT here, but what is that?

You can see it here too along with an odd placed wood wedge.

That isn't off-topic at all. It's great. Have you got any more photos like that? I'm converting my Mattycollector board to an accurate one and doing the orange version.
