1/6 Scale TDK Model Dios - Armory, Int Room, GCPD Jail

[hokietwo]

Hello guys!

Been away for my work, but with the Batman Fever at a high pitch I wanted to share some of my dio work from the The Dark Knight. These are the first dios I have ever built and I have found the interest in the 1/6 scale figures has translated into another obsession now. DIOS!!!!!

I am still polishing off the Armory as I just finished construction a couple of weeks ago and I am now waiting on weapons from the 'Bay to hit the States. The Jail is my current WIP, hope to complete it in the next week. The Interrogation Room was my first project. Whew all of those bricks drove me nuts!!!!! LOL!!!!!

The Dark Knight Rises Armory is on deck, just ordered my material and should be delivered in a week or so. Gonna take some magic with that, but excited to get started.

Please feel free to leave comments or criticisms as this is the way we can improve. Hope you enjoy!


TDK Armory

Real Concrete, Copper and Iron finish on the Armory. This thing is built like a tank. I want to weigh it as I think it will be at least 8-10 lbs! LOL! I think this came out very well. My favorite piece.

TDK Interrogation Room

My first project. This one took a while. Big props to XCES Studios for the awesome table and chairs. Still hunting a camera to finish this piece.

Someone's behind you........

More to Come!

Love your Harvey's and your street corner Joker! Very nice pieces you have there. I have found this to be as addicting as collecting the figures. Brings so much more out of already stellar pieces. like miniature movie stills.

Thanks man. I can't take credit for them as none of them were built myself.

Totally agree that they add SOO much. A figure isn't complete without his dio/environment for me

Very nice man Brick by brick for the interrogation room!

I've built my own armory as well as a table/chair/lamp set for an interrogation set up and a podium for Harvey, so I'm totally there with how fun these dios can be.

Welcome to the show - glad to be able to see your hard work on display - keep it up!

Great work on the dios, can't believe you went brick for brick on the Interrogation room. . Keep it up, I'm interested to see more of your work in the future.

I agree with the whole dio completing the whole figure. I have planned out a few, but unfortunately time is a factor. And at the moment I haven't got much of it haha

Great work on the dios!

wow, making actual bricks for the interrogation room is crazy awesome.

Love the armory and jail cell though!

 

[EdwardNashton1]

This is amazing work dude. I can't wait to see more.

 

[Mr. EcKo]

Insane craftsmanship buddy

I love how you used individual bricks for the interrogation room. Lots of patients there.

Spectacular work welcome to the freaks.

You may have just made a new best friend intothevoid

Thank you all for the positive comments!
Cutting all of that wood was a chore for sure!

I try to stamp each piece I do with some aspect of realism. Actual concrete, copper, iron for the armory. Brick effects to the IR. Iron Bars for the jail cell.

I'm starting my TDK(R) Armory this weekend. If it works out right, I think it will be really special.

Cant wait for Thursday to see all the wonderful goodies to build in the future!

Just waiting for more armory pics.

Amazing job mate.

Btw mate if you don't mind me asking, what length are the Jail cell bars?

Hi, they are about 12 and 1/4 inches in height. I measured the top crossbar to fit into a detolf, and with the base, this was as tall as I could go with it.

Thanks mate. Btw I was planning on using Plastruct rods for mine, but the longest one's are 10 inches.

Any suggestions?
