Crafting a scene from Legends of the Hidden Temple | Part 1: Orange Iguanas

Описание: Hello, everyone! We're Alex and Dani, and we're seriously nerdy about the 90s Nickelodeon adventure game show “Legends of the Hidden Temple.” We spent many a’ day in our youth dreaming of assembling the Silver Monkey statue flawlessly. We’ve been looking for a multi-series project that would allow us to scratch-build structures one at a time, and seven segments of a fantasy Mayan temple seemed to fit that goal perfectly. In this Part 1 video, we’re going to use every dang craft material we own to create the Crypt and the Ledges that are inspired by the series. Although this is a fantasy setting, we want to pay tribute to the ancient Mayan inspiration with real-world references from Temple of the Seven Dolls at Dzibilchaltún and the cave pottery at Balamkú in Mexico. We relied on some things we know (like painting mini figures and distressing miniature wood planks) and discovered some things we didn’t know (like how thin bass and balsa woods really are incredibly difficult under clay). It wouldn’t be a temple run without some challenges along the way! We’ll work on this series over the next several months, so be sure to Subscribe so you can see our progress as we work to complete this seven part series. Thanks for watching!
