WIP of my Midgar scale model (console modding)

MakoMod · Jan 7, 2015

Hi everyone! I'm just finishing my 'fan art' project, and I want to get some feedback from real FF fans.
Please let me know what do you think

Thanks, and sorry for my english!

Shademp · Jan 7, 2015

Put simply: Highly impressive work!

Octo · Jan 7, 2015

Wow. What have you used to make it?

Also seeing the old style PS1 has made me all nostalgic *sniff*

ForceStealer · Jan 7, 2015

That is friggin awesome!

Tennyo · Jan 7, 2015

Wow! You made that? Totally jealous of your skills.

Somone front page this now.

Holy crap! That's really amazing work dude. I wish I could make something so cool!

OH MY GODDDSH!!! This is the most awesome thing evarrrr! :excited:

I'm really really really impressed!!! :awesome:

MakoMod · Jan 8, 2015

Thanks! I'm happy to see that you like my work

Btw, it's made by 'cold casting', using real aluminium powder, mixed with synthetic resin.

Here is the last pic taken:

Hoooooly crap... That is some amazing work! Kudos to you! :monster:

EDIT: BTW, is it meant to be pre-FF7 events, post, or somewhere in between? (It looks like post-Sector 7's bombing, but pre-meteor, unless my eyes deceive me...)

This is excellent. Does the Midgar model replace the lid or is it just set atop the lid?

EDIT: Wrote newspost

Holy impressive balls man, I love it.

MakoMod · Jan 8, 2015

Hi! is Midgar as seen at the beginning of FFVII, but a little bit dirty

. All inner plates will be on its place when finished. The lid of the console is not replaced, but is cutted and sanded in some parts (the tin areas between inner plates) in order to hide it from the view.

X-SOLDIER · Jan 8, 2015

I'm at a loss for words about how impressive this is. I'm loving all the little details you've put into it.

Whenever SE has their next Super Fan event, I'm going personally kidnap someone from the local office and direct them to this thread. :awesome:

ForceStealer · Feb 7, 2015

That looks so unbelievably cool

Shademp · Feb 7, 2015

This is indeed award-worthy work. MakoMod, you rock.

Sweet. Did you actually mod the inside of the disk drive? Does it even work still? :monster:
