Taj Mahal, non-scale, Piececool
Hi Imodelers,
I once put my '3d-Metal Puzzle' Eiffel tower model with base. this is successive work done.
There is many of Taj Mahal (also Eiffel tower) 3d metal puzzle models in market. I recommend this Piececool's one because it's only model has right shape with real building. others are almost toys.
I painted it white and add some discoloration effect with each marble panel. and washed with very thinned brown enamel.
Base is still satellite image collage. add some sponges and I make water with gloss varnish.
The output is much prettier than the simple work I put in. it took couple of day for finish all.
I attached the base image I used. and you can easily find the model on Aliexpress in around 10 dolors with free shipment..
I recommend to try it for someone who suffered from hard and long project 🙂
13 additional images. Click to enlarge.

Nice to see something a little different, very neatly done.

Yes, building something different it good for modeling life. this piece was much more for me, an architect

Wow! That's a really Cool Piece! (Sorry for the pun)
Great work, Mr. Choi. I can't believe it's a puzzle!

that "3D metal Puzzle"makes some confuse, It's practically Photo etched sheet model!
very accurate for this small size. it designed to build without glue. but I used adhesive.
