the grand budapest hotel

I am working on the mendl's box just now. What type of ribbon attach do you like the most?

This one?

Or this one?

The last one I believe is the one that were used for the opening mechanism. I have established a mock up and understood how it worked :p

I prefer the blue colour from the second one (I made my box without the opening mecanism...)

i will make one with the opening mechanism, I'll keep you updated, will have to make a few tries before to have it professionally printed though ^^
 
Did I miss it, or has someone worked up J.G. Jopling's business card? I can't find a match for the blackletter font.

I'm thinking of giving a try at the "Lobby Boy" hat. What do you think the height should be?

Regarding your "M. Gustave Suite" key, I'm guessing 12 X 2,5 cm. What's your opinion?

Thanks

Yup sounds good for m gustave suite key... Did you find a similar key? I am myself on the throat slitter, but maybe I should start a thread in the replica prop? As it does not concern paper prop much :p

I guess for the hat... I'd say 10cm tall maybe?
 
Thanks Emma

Yes I think I found a more or less aprox key. I'll upload pic later and wait for your opinion
As to the hat that was my first guess too. Then thought about 12cm but found it too tall. In doubt always ask! I'll go for the 10 cm option
This seems to be the best (and only) GBH prop ref (even if it's paper) thread on the forum, that's why I posted here, but yes, seems a good Idea to create a new GBH thread about non paper props
Thank you
 
I guess that I did miss Athena's (post #138) group. I'll have to mark it up to mid-to-late age.

@MAKE BELIEVE > I was wondering, for the poetry book... When Agatha read the message in the book, she says "from Z to A" instead of "Zero" like it shows in the screen used book, what would be best to add?

I have also printed my Grand Budapest hotel book, will take pictures tomorrow :)

Thanks!

Hi there

Not beeing able to have both versions (two books with two diferent inscriptions) and because it was used on the set I'd go for the "Zero" option. However the "from Z to A" one also looks good...

Thanks :) I have posted the books in the prop section!
 
Confidential letter, to be printed on A4. All you have to do is to fold the upper part in half and the sides equally and cut the edges diagonally! And voilà!!! :D (click on the image, do view image, click, and save as, for full scale!)
