The HG WELLS time machine 8 DAY COMMISSION. did we build it in TIME?

[J Scorn]

Hello, things for me have moved on at a great pace since i last started a thread on this forum. I now have a great team of 5 talented costumers, make up artists and prop builders AND we have a huge WORKSHOP.

A very recent commission we had come in, was to create the HG WELLS time machine for public viewing and photoshoots for a festival. due to funding and timescales the deadline was crucial with just 8 days to the main event.... did we make it on TIME, well thats the lucky thing with building a time machine

TIME to get pic heavy, any questions and comments are very welcome thanks in advance guys.

8 days? Holy crap that's a deadline. I hope it went well.

That's a heck of a "little' project. Interested in seeing the final product. I just received the Time Machine blueray yesterday and they have a very cool extra feature and it is pretty much dedicated to the original props. Love this movie.

all the detail sections like the rosettes were resin formed, the sculpt from this was by hand

Looking good so far but man that is a very tight deadline they gave you.

If you don't finish the time machine on time you could use it to deliver it earlier ...

I love a tight deadline. GEts the juices really flowing.

Doing a great job so far!

A wider brush for applying the stain would save you 30 mins

Nice build mate!

WOW!! What an ambitious build schedule. Good luck!

 

[J Scorn]

thanks Duncanator, to make things more interesting the dish was made from scratch, not a satellite dish or spun aluminium like most builds of this kind.
