Completed I Built a 1:10 Scale Batcave for InArt Arkham Origins Batman

82 Upvotes

This is a 1:10 scale Batcave diorama that I made for my InArt Arkham Origins Batman action figure.

The diorama is made to fit inside an IKEA Kallax shelf, measuring 13" wide x 13" tall and 15" deep. This diorama was made completely using PLA 3D printed parts (Based on 3D scans of my hand carved XPS terrain) and laser cut parts designed by me.

The cave walls each print in 4 separate pieces that I glued together. I used spackle to hide the quadrant seams. I used mortar mix to achieve the cave wall texture. I also used that on the stalactite and stallagmite pieces you see.

It features a modular bat computer and chair. The computer has a battery powered remote that allows it to light up using LED strip lights glued inside the 3D printed 4 piece computer. I didn't design the chair, I used a chair from a free file I found on Makerworld that no longer exists.

The diorama also has an overhead rechargeable LED light that attaches by magnet and can be recharged easily that I got on amazon.

This one is glued together using Starbond craft glue, Titebond multi surface glue, hot glue and Hotwire foam factory styrogoo.

Thanks for looking!

My last diorama circa 2019 and the first attempt at a knocked out AFV. Two veteran German soldiers show a new guy the damage to a KV-1 in the late summer of ‘42.

Edit to clarify it’s a KV-1 not a KV-2. My bad for the title

This is my second-ever diorama to be shared online. The base is made of wood, which I covered with sand and glue. The broken dinosaur egg is from a Kinder Surprise egg toy, and the dinosaur itself came from a dollar store.

The plants are moss and paintbrush bristles.

A little off-topic, and I'm not sure if this kind of post is allowed here. 😊

I'm a handmade diorama artist from Vietnam, and I'd love to share and sell my creations to people around the world. 🌍❤️

Does anyone know of any communities or groups where artists like me are allowed to showcase and sell their handmade dioramas internationally?

I'd really appreciate any recommendations or advice!

Thank you so much for your help and support! ❤️

I'm painting the base for a Asian emporer looking robot model kit, and I didn't want to leave it plain like the images on the box. And I took inspiration from Chinese Buddhist landscape I would love feed back. I used the Dirty down moss effect paint and it started drying faster then I would have like and got some moss ball looking thinks that kinda look like trees.

Hey everyone! / ¡Hola a todos!

(English)
I wanted to share my latest design: a modern minimalist kitchen cabinet. I put a lot of effort into getting the scale and clean lines just right. It's been a blast combining 3D design and printing for miniature decor!

Always loved playing SimCity and wanted to have my IRL version of it to play with and showcase. Already got over 70 tiles now, and it can grow in breadth and depth with additional grid plates.

Let me know what you think, and if there’s anything you’d improve!

I modeled this post-apocalyptic bombing scene in Blender (a major learning curve for a beginner!). Next up is texturing and painting.

Do you think the layout works for tabletop games like Warhammer or D&D? I'd love your feedback!
