      This looks amazing Scott. Love the details and color palette. It feels very animated, I expect a character to walk into the scene any minute.

      I will be one of the first in line for one. Any info on size or shape wold be appreciated.

              Thanks, the final opened set will be 22 inches wide and 30 inches long, but can be broken down into smaller pieces for shelving displays or the whole thing will fold up into a carrying case. It will have a jail room, an office room and a bridge archway entrance. The lawgiver is a separate piece that snaps on, will be 15 inches high and the liberty torch will be on the other side.

                  That's a pretty cool idea. It would prefer classic Arnolds, not 80's arnolds. Maybe something fairly simple so it's less expensive (since the line isn't hugly popular) but it would be a great layout and could involve multiple lines for display. And maybe some custom booths from the laser megoman. Especially if it had a sound card like those Hallmark ones so that when you open it, it says "Happy days is filmed before a live studio audience."

I'm really excited about the design and the drawing and coloring I'm doing. I'm taking a very retro marker art style like Mego used and giving it lots of attention and detail from the movie.

                    This is all of the inside artwork in one view.



                    This is the work in progress on the outside art...Village, scarecrows, red sun, Liberty, and the secret archaeological cave.



                    Work in progress on the front door panel art showing the crash of the spaceship



                    A detail shot of the rendering style. Lurid!



                    I'm banging through this one now, I'll have a playset done soon.
                    You've got mad skills, that art is really great. This thing is gonna look sweet.

                          I was kind of blown away by all this playset art on my computer desktop at once. Here's a screenshot of both monitors with artwork and reference photos. Next, I will comp these up in a sample playset design.
