Rambo 3 Hero Boots

That's turning into quite the display. Almost like a 1:1 diorama.

Cheers, I did want to add a half exposed land mine (like in the movie) but I thought it would make the display too busy, and it would distract the primary point of the display....thats not to say I'll make another later on down the line.

Leave that wooden gate. It looks great with that.

I see what ya mean...that old gate kinda goes with the "Rustic" feel

The grenades arrived from Poland this morning, Im painting them to get them a little closer to the screen used versions, I will then attach them to the metal stake and then add the trip wire, should be able to post pics later on today.

Here it is as it is...just waiting for the Hibben hand made Rambo 3 knife now.

Thoroughly impressed by your dedication to this display, Raven. I'd love to see an SA headband in the mix.

An SA headband would definitely be a sort after addition to my display, but alas one can only work with what one can afford to buy lol.

The great thing about this kind of display is that ANYBODY can make these, and at very little cost, youve just gotta have tenacity and imagination.

So true. And you sure have plenty of that. I'd love to see more of your work in the future. I always love me some dioramas.

Here are some I made a couple of years back..first attempts and all that.

They have plexi-glass covers which I removed just for the photos to stop the reflection of the flash. Also the black plastic behind the displays are not part of them, I just used it to make the displays stand out for the photographs.

Here is a video of the display. Its still a work in progress, as I am still waiting for the hand made Gil Hibben Rambo 3 knife and perspex dome cover. I think I will also change the display plaque to a better and more descriptive one.

Wow, great display you have made.

 

[Raven1973]

Wow, great display you have made.

Thanks, its amazing what you can do on a very low budget. Cant wait for the Hibben hand made Louisville Rambo 3 knife to arrive, so it can sit on the mounts in front of the boots.

Its the best I can do, with limited funds..all you need is a little tenacity and lots of imagination.

Wow. That's one of the best little displays I've seen in quite some time. It packs a hell of a punch with all the little tidbits in there from the film. Great job!

Thanks for the feedback mate. Its the best one Ive made so far. Ive just gotta shell out for a perspex dome now..thats gonna cost I reckon.
