This also solved an issues of what to with this massive 13 foot tall wall in my house.
Looks great. My only issue is with the two batmobiles. Maybe try to make the center any other color than black, maybe Grey like a road color, so they pop out but make the outer border black to fit the motif.
Are you aware that you have a bot account?
I’ve read that before. I have no idea why or how to fix it…
On thunder this is a simple toggle in account settings. There should be something similar in what you are using as well.
There was a bit of method to the madness. The ultimate technic cars are in release order(first 5). Then everything else is in release order as well. I’ll just shuffle everything as they release more ultimates like the McLaren just made me do.
I think they’re just talking about the black background on the Batmobile displays, not moving them from their position. They’re suggesting making the center of the Batmobile frames grey, introducing some contrast to make the model more visible. (And which I agree - maybe it’s not as bad in person, but it is hard to see the batmobiles in the picture)
It’s a camera exposure thing. Those cars are unnaturally black in that picture. This is my staircase down to the basement that makes a 180 turn. So from the main floor you’re looking down at those cars a couple feet and helps them catch the light a bit.
Ahh cool! That makes sense, I bet they look great in person

This is amazing, great work
That is really nice. Also solves an irk I have with most Lego sets not being properly to scale, so they look a little off sat next to each other.
Wow, great looking solution. The Chiron takes up half my car shelf by itself so I get it. Must be a truly huge wall to make it look so small
Could you explain/show how you printed the background and mounted the models?
Guess I should clarify that I’m not responsible for the boards. I bought those from a company that clearly doesn’t care about trademarks. I don’t think I could even pay a printing company for designs like these because of the logos and the such. They are quite nice though. Printed plexiglass(or similar) with a foam backer board in aluminum picture frame. Think the light up posters at movie theaters. So some kind of specialized printing equipment that I don’t have.
These aren’t lit but they could be with some work on my part. I’ve been toying with the idea. Get a diffuser sheet and replace the foam backer board with it and mount some LEDs. That’s all stuff I’m actually comfortable with.
The cars are mounted on hooks that screw through the plexiglass/foam board. So you can lift them off pretty if you want. You can actually buy the hooks on like Amazon so nothing too special there. So you could design your own boards with whatever material you wanted. I just don’t have that kind of time. It took plenty with a laser level just to get these hung. Ladders required as that wall is about 13 feet tall and is the landing of a U shaped staircase.
Thank you very much for a detailed explanation.
