Some of yall have seen my work, if not check out my albums. I was wondering if there are any people who would be interested in having custom dioramas/playsets built for them to their own specifications. Things to consider...
-The more challenging the more expensive -Parts and pieces used (some things cost a pretty penny) -Shipping can get costly -Suggested for mature play and display, children will probably break it. -You can donate specific props to use in the custom, the more donated, the cheaper If you have seen my castle Destro that is a good example of something very expensive. It would not be worth to me selling for less than 400-$500 not including shipping. It is massive, more durable than one would think, and very challenging. Not to mention the materials costed at the very least $200. It would be so great if there were an easier and cheaper way to do it but I guess I have not figured that out yet....if there even is lol. I actually have more work but have not been able to post them yet as I am constantly traveling. Anyhow, let me know what yall think! =) -

Interesting post. You talked me out of it for sure.
That was your intention, right? |

I was just being as realistic with it as possible. I had a lot of people ask if I would make or sell em stuff but would back down after I told them what it takes lol. Some people think that its uber easy just cuz someone makes one....its not hehe.

i have custom built a few dios as well. what i try to do is make the dio assembleable. Or some assembly required. I usually make it, break it up into pieces that connect securely by tabs or what not. then i add a page with some instructions, or e mail dissassembley-assembly pics.
This saves an azzload of shipping, as you can pack the dio more neatly and smaller. Hope this helps

I'd like to get something along the lines of a "Diorama Shelf" for Joes (Perhaps something like a "War Room" with camo netting on the wall), and a Cobra Ceremonial Red & Black shelf.
