Hi guys,
I've made several attempts to recreate that prop from scratch. I've never had money to buy one of the rare replicas that was available by the past so I had to recreate it using the references found on internet.
Recreating a particular prop with not so much reference material often becomes a question of trials and various attempts over the years.
Here is my latest current attempt, out of pine wood.
I recently had new reference pictures and I needed to try to shape a new version, doing my best to catch all the curves and shapes of the original model.
I've started by drawing a quick pattern on inkscape and then tried to shape something out of it using layered wood pieces.
Here is what I have so far. I'm not sure to get it right, the rear part looks too thin.
I'd like to create one of these hybrid background props. I might share the building steps here.
