3d foam props for Colorado museum

 

condit-gore-range1

These sculpted creature displays were fun to make!  A 6 foot long field ant

and a 4 ft tall Red Breasted Nut Hatch.  That's a bird.

The accomplished exhibit company Condit Exhibits gave us this project.

They were great to work with and supplied us w/ all the measurements, templates and

CAD drawings we needed.  The ant sculpture has a steel skeleton and an epoxy and

urethane coated eps foam body.  The bird is made of eps foam w/ a Futura urethane

hard coated shell.  Tough stuff!   Chris Blarsky at Absolut Extremes painted the bird for us.

Thanks!

Foam props for Super Mario Brothers 3D Land in Times Square!!!

 

mario-11

mario-21

This project was fun!  Big 3d props for the debut of Super Mario 3d Land in Times Square  New York.

Short time line, limited budget, no problem!  These giant eps foam, polyurethane hard coated props

were scattered throughout EPS Doublet's 3000 square foot interactive display.  Sounds from the game

played while participants ran through the coarse.  One of the two giant Piranah plants actually spit water!

This interactive display was built for EPS Doublet in Colorado.  Thanks guy's!

3d sculpted foam dinosaur prints for Colorado Government

 

plasticare-dino-printsmini

This sculpted display was made for Plasticare in Englewood, Colorado.  They were hired to build a

realistic 3d wall panel that appeared to be cut from the earth!  They had us construct the entire prop.

It has a foam core with hydrostone casts from actual paleontologists molds of dinosaur prints

here in Colorado.  We then used hydrostone, dyes and milled fiberglass to build the layers and create a

stone like surface.  This 3D display was less exact than most of our work and it was fun to cut loose a little!

3d billboard for Colorado State Patrol

 

amelie-company-csp-billboard-2-low-res1

Here's another 3 dimensional billboard for Amelie Companies Colorado State Patrol TACT

campaign.  Ted mills of Hi-Country Signs installed our props and floating letters after removing

80% of the original board.  He installed the shorter 8 ft. tall panels 1st, then the white lettering

and finally the sculpted foam polyurethane hard coated crash roll.   The top billboard was

run for 1 month.  Then the 3d billboard was the final part of the narrative.  Thanks to the

creativity of Gordy Hirsch and Paul Sugget at Amelie Company & Hi-Country Sign's

expertise, all went smooooooth!    Hopefully this 3d advertising helps make the roads

a little safer.  Here's the local news coverage.  http://www.9news.com/dontmiss/216554/630/3D-billboard-Dont-get-close-to-semis-

3 dimensional sign for yogurt franchise

 

blizz-done

This sculpted foam display with polyurethane hard coat was built for

Blizz Yogurt.  Specifically  the Las Vegas Mirage Hotel location. 

It was built to appear full 3d but its only 11 inches deep so it does

not take up valuable retail space.  Built in 2 sections for easy shipping.

Durable, light, eye catching & affordable!

Roobar – Denver bar needs a big 3d sign!

 

roobar-done-1

Roobar in Denver Colorado had us build this 3d sign sculpture to help

get them noticed and draw people in!  Sculpted eps foam with urethane

hard coat construction.  Light weight, durable and affordable!  Thank you

to Gordon Signs for the install.  We often take a 2 dimensional reference

and sculpt foam to match the customers logo or product.

3 dimensional sculpted foam prop for Colorado chai company’s Smart car rolling ad!

 

chaibecca

Kemosabe Tea Company in Denver, Colorado commissioned this slick car top prop!

The car is now being wrapped with graphics and once complete will hard to ignore.

The ambiguity of a Smart car with a big red teapot gets noticed as well.

This eps foam prop is hand coated with fiberglass and mounts through the

polycarbonate sun roof.  The 3d sign gets a chuckle or at least a head scratch

when seen!  Ill post finished photos in the future.

3d pirate signs for Colorado Waterpark!!!

 

water-world-pirate1

FUN FUN FUN!  These 8 ft and 6 ft 3 dimensional signs were for

Hyland Hills Water World in Colorado.  They are not finished in

the picture but you get the idea.  The sculpted foam prop type

signs are one of my favorite styles of displays.  Unique &

impactful!!!!

3 dimensional foam mascot for retail display

 

im000169

We can and often just work off a 2 dimensional image.  Sculpted foam.Polyurethane hard coat,

on shot sign enamel.   This is the removable head of a kids manikin that is a 3d recreation of the

scuba company children's mascot.   This retail display is durable enough to take some abuse

and lighter than the original manikin head!
