Now I get it. The figures are inside the structure. That's going to look great.

Painted the city silhouette black today. Will wet sand and re-paint. It's getting there...

This is coming along nicely, Jeremy! Always dug that very simple yet effective color scheme that was used in the end credits.

This is looking great! I wish I could just display my toys, I'd love something like this.
I'm on Instagram as kustomjeff if you want to see more toy pics and some motorcycle stuff too. :-P

Did a little more work this weekend. Primed & painted the Bat Signal white/black portions.
Both pieces are separate & 1/4" thick each. I want to give it a bit of a 3D effect.

Look really cool. Have you thought about illuminating the Bat-signal? Perhaps shaping/finding a frosted piece of white plastic into a circle and put a light behind it.

That's actually a brilliant idea!

I am a little farther along (I haven't posted pics yet), so that bat signal is already attached to the background.
However, I did make the background removable from the rest of the display. So I could re-create it using your suggestion. ;)
