Your Indiana Jones Displays - Lets see 'em

[VonMagnum]

Quite impressed by the state of your current display. I absolutely loved your art-decò lighters. They are very much in the line of the period. Maybe Indy wouldn't smoke (he even might not have time to enjoy it ), but I bet Walter Donovan would and they'd perfectly fit his stylish parlour... By the way, I always wondered where the production came across with the fluted champaigne glasses...

Yeah, I've got a soft spot for the 20s through the 50s, albeit minus the Great Depression and WWII. I think if you had money back then, it would have been a great period, at least until WWII broke out. Watching the movies made then, the only thing striking me as missing really was TV and high-end music playback (and social media garbage, but I wouldn't likely miss that).

I'd love to drive Bogart's Plymouth in The Big Sleep/High Sierra today even (I hate automatic and this push for electric is bogus; if it were so great it'd sell on its own).

So what is the appropriate currency likely in Indy's pocket upon arriving at Sallah's house? These bills, edited to remove cancellation marks could be candidates. Anyone have better scans of different notes?

Sizing...
5 pounds: 168 X 86mm
100 pounds: 190 X 98mm

I've posted this on this site somewhere before but this is the bank note Indy uses from one of the deleted scenes in Cairo and Sallah also uses it to pay the diggers i think in another deleted scene can't remember where i got it from as i've had it on my computer for years must have been somewhere on line ?

Looking forward to new props from Dial of Destiny!

TANIS MAP ROOM STONE BY PETER74...

Definitely more accurate looking than mine (some sand and fading might help), although I bought it more for holding my full size Staff of Ra.

I recently made my own Grail, it was 3d printed and sadly was a bit too large. Do you guys think it’s ridiculous or not? I’m going to add some gold leaf to it, just so it looks a bit better but what do you guys think…

It’s not a prop I’ve studied in detail but the colors/texture look pretty good from what I can tell on the pic. I would probably take another shot to make it (the basin piece more than the stem) a bit smaller and more in line with the proportions of the screen prop. If you can get the sizing right, I think you’ll have a very nice replica.

Looks great to me!

 

[MAKE BELIEVE]

The paintjob on your cup looks great
It is supposed to measure:
12 x 17 x 7 cm / 4.7 x 6.7 x 2.7 inch, more or less.

Hey everyone! Do you guys think it’s a good idea to use lacquer to seal gold leaf?

When in doubt, use a small area to test. I like to make control pieces used for testing applications

Just dropped $110.00 on the Disney Ra headpiece. Was surprised I had to go to eBay.

The Mouse is all sold out...

Bone handle knives are born expensive regardless of what they end up doing I would also stay clear of a switch blade They were never legal to own and it’s not really on my list of props .

They're not illegal to own, just illegal to carry. Unless you live in Texas - we can carry them now.

They're legal in many states (one should check their own laws). Ohio repealed their carry status several years ago as well, stating we don't have knife fight problem. This isn't West Side Story in the 21st Century.

Funny enough, they were only banned outright in NY because of West Side Story.

I think that's why they reference it when they repealed it because it's just not relevant in a world where everyone thinks a gun solves all their problems. People are not going around pulling switchblades on people. They use guns and in Ohio at least you don't even need a permit or ANY safety training whatsoever anymore. It's the freaking Wild West in the MidWest....

Lots of new additions to the Indiana Jones wall!
I added in. Vines, branches, twigs, cob webs, spiders, hovitos poison dart, and shooting wall arrow from the beginning of Raiders! Oh and mini posters from movie 4 and 5. Hot damn I love this section! Hope ya'll do as well. Oh, and a few pieces from KOTCS.
