Teletraan I
Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2007 10:38 amThis should qualify as creative...
I've been working on a Teletraan I prop for my Digi-Comix (action figure comics). Before anyone says anything, I know the main screen is supposed to be angled back, but just figuring how to make the other components with a verticle screen was enough for me. Also, I goofed up and accidently placed the main, and auxillery screens, too high, but I think it still works. I scored and spray painted cereal box cardboard for the control keys and printed cardstock inserts for the screens. As you can see, I've made some screen inserts of G1 box art (credit to Botch The Crab for the box art resource). To make it stand on it's own, I made spacers out of cereal box cardboard and glue the whole thing to foam board. I have designed decals to place on the ends of the console as well as the small center monitor. I am planning to use a cardboard box to build an Autobot HQ set.
