Pillars, Pillars, and more Pillars ....

One of the most important components to the bank room set will be the pillars that run down both sides of either side of the hall, before you reach the bank vault room.

The most important element to the pillars will be to keep the stylised 50's cut-out design that will be the running theme throughout the film. Ben has given me these designs so that my models will fit to this theme:

with these designs in mind, I have started some initial models:

I started by keeping the models fairly simple:

I then added some more detail around the top and bottom sections:

 

 

We felt that this made the model look to fussy, so we decided to keep it simple to thin the top and bottom sections down as they looked a bit to chunky. I also added some more detail to the middle section of the pillars:

 

 



 I am very pleased with this final design as it looks very stylised and effective but also is a fairly simple design and will not take too much attention away from the main action of the scene.
