Casket of Ancient Winters plan
I've been trying to figure ot a way to do the Casket of Ancient Winters from the first Thor movie. At first, I was going to make it from Plexiglas. It's durable and etchable, for the cracks on the front. The problem is that I would be hard pressed to be entirely accurate with the angles of it. So I'm going a different route with a friend. We're going to stack foam board to make a block (much cheaper than a foam block), carve it out and vacuum form a plastic shell around it, and then use aluminum flashing for the framework around it. It'll be much cleaner in terms of the bending, there's no chance of warping the Plexiglas, and it will be a lot lighter than using Plexiglas as well! I can't wait to see this come together!
