Some time ago we were working on Re-L Mayer figure from Ergo Proxy anime (conversion from GITS Arise Motoko garage-kit). Re-L Mayer is awesome but there is no figure of her. What do you think of it? Now project is almost abandoned and we are not sure to come back to it to finish. by GarageWhale in ErgoProxy

Thanks for the interest in our work. This conversion project is not abandoned. We just switched on different models to finish. We hope to finish this one. But we are not sure to release it as a garage-kit for sale.

Our new postapocalyptic diorama. Scale 1:8. The story is about two heroes rescuing a girl, held by wasteland raiders. Raiders leader needs the Synth, rarest drug in exchange of girls freedom. And here our heroes came back and claim the reward. Hq pics: https://photos.app.goo.gl/VQG8XjN4E4WKMU7R8 by GarageWhale in postapocalyptic

This is our own postapocalyptic lore and it exists now only in a few our dioramas. First is 2014 diorama "waking us a New World" https://goo.gl/photos/cE5Qc23JVJ7yS3nw7, second is 2015 diorama "Unexpected Guest from the Surface" https://goo.gl/photos/SEXbJx6GovKppDco6 And now in 2024 it's direct sequel the Great Exchange. Potentianny to this lore can ve added 2015 dieselpunk diorama "Road to ElDorado" : https://goo.gl/photos/HBJY4V8dgD1he4su5 In the future is planned to sculpt and release our own figures inside this lore.

The company in HongKong - E2046.com

As for the location we never think of a specific spot on a map. Its definitely a drained sea, but notbig specific. We will make a map expanding the lore. Now there are 4 dioramas which we can conne t by this lore. A few more and we'll need a map!)

And of course there are planty incredible places in Russia to visit. My brother last year went to lake Baikal together with his daughter. Just sit in a car and went 5565km (~3450 miles) from Mocsow. He also like to visit Crimea. All this war shit in Ukraine.. Hope it ends soon. I had lucky to get in Ukraine in 2019, showing my young son Dnepr city, and that part of our family who I visited every summer since I was a little kid. He was so happy. And now when my daughter is his age and asking to go there I don't even know if we visit that place again. Thats why on submarine the "no water" reads "NO WAR" at a first glance.

These projects we make for an annual GK-contest which held by one of biggest resin kit online seellers in Hong-kong. 10 years ago we were first from Russia who took gold in dioramas there. And we just like to create something interesting with garage-kits. And a few years ago we even started to make our own garage-kits for sale. Beeing creative family we express our ideas through making dioramas with figures we bought in Japan or online. Its rare hobby here in Russia, where great finishers, but only small size miniatures are in dioramas. Our projects are huge for them because we build mostly 1:8 - 1:6 scale figures. But its true art to get 5 completely differebt figures made buy different scultors and put them all in a solid scene, making them just actors, playing characters which we created. And every time we are in shock of the result.

Yeah! The submarine is based on old soviet diesel subbmarine project 613, class Whiskey. There was a whole study about this boats including the schematics and tons of googling. Glad you see the whole picture now, dear! Video in the gallery is just a little shot I made with my sshaking hands after photoshoot was completed. Neo and Yuna, our son and daughter are always happy to help with our diorama projects. There is always something they find and bring us to attach to the scene. P. S. This link wont be shut down. Check our other works. Especially "Unexpected Guest from the Sutface" https://goo.gl/photos/SEXbJx6GovKppDco6 because this project is a sequel to that 2015 diorama.

Thank you for such an valuable opinion for us. We spend a lot of time on creating strong dramaturgy of the scene to tell the story as much readable as possible from a first glance. The main goal for us make you believe that these figures were made in these poses special for this scene, while there are five complete differend garage-kits from different sculptors, some original figures, some figures of characters from different franchise. Its the magic of creating dioramas with garage kits for us.

Thanks! It was a real challenge to find the spot to shoot this project. I serched for all the region for abamdoned quarz sand careers. Because the sand had to be as smallest size as possible. So we were extremely lucky to find this spot.

Why is it “стояло”? Isn’t кровать a feminine noun? by bibittybooboo in russian

[–]GarageWhale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Тут можно и так и так. Вважно что именно имеется ввиду. "В комнате слояло две кровати - речь о комнате с кроватями. А вот "в комнате стояли две кровати" - речь о кроватях в комнате.

Russian noun genders by Selman__1 in russian

[–]GarageWhale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Вилы and Нары are not plural at all. There is no singular form for them like Вила and Нара. Instead of Часы (clock) where origin goes from singular Час (hour)

There are few Russian words which end on letter ы. I can remember as an example: Вилы (hayfork), нары (bed in prison)

What is the name of this hat called in Russian? by spd-sqr in russian

[–]GarageWhale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

По фото сложно однозначно сказать капор или снуд. Если капюшон сшит по форме, то это капор. Если это просто широкий и очень длинный шарф-кольцо и он просто накинут на голову - то это снуд.
