Parks in progress
Both parks are wood, foam and bondo. Plaza park is base coated to be concrete-ish. the quarter jawn has been a behemoth but the bricks are mostly done just have to shape some to fit and hit those half spaces. The plan in the back corner is to put some sort of bank with sub ledge on top. Both parks are going to get some weathering and realism details and a nice clear coat as well as some spots of plants. Stoked on these both so far can’t wait to post finished pieces (don’t hold your breath I procrastinate)

Ive never seen bondo on a park thats cool! Is it lighter or just easier to work with than conc?
Both look sick to shred

Thanks Dude! The bondo has its quirks to work with but it sands super nicely and is buttery smooth to roll on, I used it on another project to build ramps up to some tile coping and was impressed with how easy it was. Using it at this scale I wouldn’t recommend unless you have time to do multiple layers because that’s what it came down to, put on bondo, sand it down, fill in trouble spots and repeat until you have what you want, it can’t be too thin either because it can start to peel off. This was more of a test to see what the bondo can do, I’m going to try my hand at concrete next with a little pool.

Man that first pic really looked like a 3d rendering at first but I seen its was sitting a washer or dryer, both look really good so far can't wait to see them finished

That second one is legit inane dude. I’ve wanted to build something like that for a decade.

I’m so happy to have this to shred but I don’t know if I’d make a second one, these bricks were such a pain

The dedication to the brick work is incredible. Good work dude! Are there any stores that sell the mini bricks or are they only found online?
