Hollywood Boulevard (US movie icons)

At least the sun could have cooperated and been at the right spot to begin with! Sounds like you, and your hands and feet did a lot of work to get this right, and suffered for your art. But the results are still glorious. Was it worth it, is up to you.

My only work was walk a long way, sit, and wait a few hours for the sun to turn (might have been the worst part, I got covered with mosquito/spider/fly bites)

Ah, a true artist....suffering for your craft.

Thank you Sky!
(adding the cushions on your background today btw   )

Oooh, yay!  

update!

"Oh, look, it's 'Titanic' -- I love this movie!"

Love the pizza & beer set-up on the table! Impressively realistic setting! The curtains are nice!

very cool Alex! they look so natural sat there!

You did capture that meme perfectly imo!

What a beautiful setup with all the details and the leo position is just so good. I think that you lighted up the scene a bit brighter than the original is a good move.

I had to smile immedeately when I saw that one.

Haven’t seen the movie, but I can appreciate the set that you mad and of course the awesome photos. Nice work, Alex.

Ahh, fantastic! The diorama is convincing as a 'real' 1:1 room!

As soon as i looked at the first image i knew what i was looking at - Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood

Great work! ..such good posing skills.
I always hoped Hot Toys might have picked this license up, or another company.

I did consider working on a (Margot Robbie) Sharon Tate figure, based on the scene when see exits the cinema. The flat footed white Go-Go boots do not appear to exist.

I agree, very nicely done, Alex.

HAHA it would have been a great caption!

Thanks a lot for noticing the curtains, it was hand sewn by my girlfriend, she did a very nice job! Since it was the main part of the background, I didn't want to just print a picture of them... So now I got real curtains that allow some light to go through, expect to see them again soon lmao

Thank you my friend! Posing them was a lot of fun while watching the movie again

Thanks a lot! You're right about the light, I think it was just me being scared of doing another dark shooting, between Matrix and my last back to the future set, it's all about evening/night ambiances, my brain was screamin "turn on the light it's not the tales from the crypt!" lmao

Thanks for the kind words Mark, I love this movie, but I agree it's "different" one from the other Tarantino, not sure it would please all audiences (in fact a lot of Tarantino fans were disappointed by this movie)

I keep looking at these Margot Robbie headsculpts floating around on the web, but as you said, the outfit would be veeeery complicated to create... I'd love to have more characters from the movie anyway, including Randy the producer and his wife

Thanks a  lot Ian!

I just received this yesterday in the facebook comments of a 1/6 group

Great FB response!

Beautiful, very homely and natural atmosphere there.
Now you need to get the real Leonardo playing with your Dio to contrbute to the meme.

Still have to watch the movie though.

That is perfect, as Ovy said you just need DiCaprio to react to the figure reacting to the reaction of DiCaprio.

This one is for Mark... I hope you grabbed the man, he looks fantastic and would fit your old west universe so well...

Really cool pics Blackpool! That's a great looking sculpt .

I was just thinking about you, blackpool! How nice to then come here and see new pics from you! You did a great job with photographing that Clint figure.

Excellent photos of Clint! Nice of you to drop by.

Great shots, Alex. I do have him, and Josey is on the way. Glad to see you back.
