Hi, this is my project for Mightyq, the hardest and longest I´ve made.
I had to make half of the boat from the movie "Jaws", 1/6 scale, to display the custom figures of the three main characters of the movie, Quint, Brody and Hooper, with headsculpts by Trevor Grove.
The scene would be the beggining of the shark´s hunting, with Quint sitting in his fighting chair.
I had no idea of where to start, but step by step I built the structure and later I tried to make every piece of the boat as much movie accurate as I could, but It wasn´t easy because in the movie they used two different boats and some parts change from one scene to another.
In the beggining I thought the project it would take about 4 months and finally it took 9 months to finish it. It was so hard because it seemed a neverending project.
The diorama is made of wood, aluminum, plastic, methacrylate, polyester resin and steel.
Some pictures don´t show the real colors of some parts of the boat, but it´s not easy to light such a big diorama with my null photographer skills.
I can only upload 10 pics but you can see lots of them here:Shaolin customs
