I don't know if this topic will ever show up. If it does, here is the actual thread: When I finally get my Griffin greys, I plan to set up an alien settlement and have human troopers and/or scavengers be the bad guys. I was thinking of using "Ape City" (from the original "Planet of the Apes" movie) as a model. I think it has the right look: link Should I start making my buildings from scratch, or has a manufacturer already started making and producing these odd structures? CC |

Ape city is an adobe town gone Dali. This manufacturer makes nice adobe buildings in 28mm scale: link I'm not sure anyone does an "ape city" style miniature buildings line. The walkways are easily sculped (with a hot-wire) out of foam (if you can do foam), or could be made out of plaster over a cardboard form. And stairs or arenas can be easily made. The TerraGenesis people are good to look at: link Or just post to their forum. I'm sure someone knows something. And, of course, Eurekamin's boiler suit apes are the apes to use! |

I'd use thick grey card, foamboard and paper maché to fill the gaps and get the organic feel. |

picture Question: I have yet to find anything (images, maps, sketches, etc.) for the 2001 Tim Burton ape city. Has anyone found any? CC |
