    So I totally ganked this idea from fellow member The Crow But I didn't want the entire playset. I wanted a display to fit in my Detolfs.

    One of the advantages of making signs for a living is having a large format digital printer at my disposal. So I designed up some decals from various background image sources, constructed a cardboard Teletraan I and taught myself the art of carving/molding HDU foam. The result is there in the pics.

    Happy as hell with this. C&C welcome.

    Great work! I like how well it compliments the Detolf. Both you and The Crow did some really good paint and sculpting on your project.

    Funny you should make this now; I'm actually working on smth quite similarish. So this could be...useful. :)
