World Expo: UK

Yes. GO HARD OR GO HOME

Northern Ireland cropped out

I don’t even know where to begin with this, honestly.

So we can start building today. Hopefully we can see each other on the sever but what size are we thinking? Also I think it should have a depth of 3 with the glass on the second layer (just to add depth) and I think each square with glass in should be about a 1/5 of the overall length. This is of course only if we are making a traditional red phone box, not the modern ones with big glass sheets that always get kicked in…

Personally I think the size should be 75x75 (the full plot)

I should be able to get on around 11:30am our time. Maybe we can start then?

Look ok, I did a brief Google search and this was the best shit that turned up XD

I think we should fill the plot - but make the exterior of the walls only hit about the 70x70 mark, that way we have some room for decoration on the corners.

I have made a diagram with the dimensions marked. It’s a bit messy, but I colour coded it so it should be easy enough to see.

Ruby I accidentally removed your post , I was going to quote it. I’m on my phone on the forums sorry !!

The friendly fatso undeleted the post for us :slight_smile:

Update: The base is fully completed plus the 15 high bottom bit for the front. I worked on the bottom layer of glass for the front. Feel free to change things. We can either add details now or later (I left this area undetailed) so if you want to add some detail feel free to do so. Changed a small bit up as I thought it looked better with the help of buddy :slight_smile:

How friendly of him :slight_smile:

I’m gonna get myself some fried chicken then it’s time to fuck shit up get onto this building lark.

Front panel is complete - at this rate as well as the poster inside we need something else. One idea that got thrown around was The Queen (titles) using the phone.

Considering how detailed The Queen (titles) is, I think this will use up the rest of the month, or at least enough of it so we don’t forget about our entry by the time the results are due.

I’m sure you guys could finish it by the deadline :)! I’ve made so much progress single-handedly for my own country, you guys have four people, with enough dedication i think you could do it

That could so easily end up looking shit though. Depends how we do it. Someone could design it on a skin editor, or find one similar, then we just copy that.

How’s this for the skin?

Looks a little odd, but we could add to it. Like make the hat 3-D on top :slight_smile:

Yeah I didn’t make it but I think we can make it more detailed. I also don’t know how it will work for scale but we can only try right :slight_smile:

Also can someone please add GlennWT and Tripp83 to the builders list and board as they have helped. Thanks :slight_smile:

I’d love to join the UK team and I also think wouldn’t it be nice to have a facts board similar to what the Netherlands did? Showing off everything we as a country have done and have? Including the NHS etc.
Also maybe a little board, just listing all the great British bands, there’s so many, I bet some people would be surprised some are actually British!

I like the music idea! Perhaps have a pixel art guitar hanging off the inside of the phonebox. A recognisable guitar from a british musician would be good - any suggestions?

Maybe a mini city inside the phone box? The London skyline maybe on a poster or something like that?

I’ve started building a guitar hanging off a wall on the inside. Jimi Page of Led Zepplin’s signature Les Paul.

I am working on the back of the box and the roof, both are now nearly done.

The guitar is pretty much done. The back just needs filling in and a holder on the wall added. I may change it from this:
