The contest is finished, and these are the entries. Name of the maker,
name of the build, backstory and details about the
construction have been added, if available
(These are not presented in order of Alfabet or Publication btw, and each gets their own Blogpost)
Paul Williams "Best Africa Garage"
The Best Africa Garage is THE place to go to get your vehicles serviced!
This
is a foamcore shell, with cereal packet roofing clad in bits of a
computer game box which was corrugated card with an outer layer that
peeled off very easily to reveal the fantastic corrugations inside. The
base is a bit of Foamex extruded PVC board (great stuff, hight
recommended and off-cuts available free from many signage/exhibition
companies), textured with some brown acrclic
decorator's caulk. The walls were painted with PVA, then powdered
filler was sprinkled on using an old tea strainer. Thsi seems to give a
fairly good cement render effect. Window sills are bits of coffee
stirrer, the mesh in the rear windows is embroidery netting, the poles
for the lean-to round the back are barbecue skewers. The oil drums,
tyres, pickup and crate are 3d printed, the Ford Capri is a £1 miscast
from Kore.
The posters were sourced from the internet, printed on a black &
white laser printer and then hand-coloured. I made sure to include a
couple of posters for everyone's favourite technical, the Toyota Hilux!
