It makes me sad to think that these painstakingly detailed models that were made just to take a cover photo for this game were likely thrown out as trash after the photos were done. Same goes for just about any 80s and 90s era game which had such models for the cover art or the ads.The amount of clay models and essentially entire clay cities that must have been tossed out after The Neverhood was completed...
I always loved dioramas used to promote games
>>11248838I'm gay and retarded
>>11248814The Primal Rage models were destroyed to make the toys
>>11248846That seems like a good use?
Bump. I always liked these things.
>>11249708>Not bothering to fight the monster>Disregarding the chest >Going ahead dauntlesslyThis is the most game accurate diorama I have seen yet.

Remarkable
>>11249784Thank you for sharing these.I would love to see these in real life; they're magical.
>>11248814Wait until you hear what 40k lads have in their storage, unpainted and unused. It's kind of sad, but I also don't think anybody would seriously display or use them either.

These are incredible.
>>11249819These are all amazing, I'm surprised I haven't seen them in diorama threads before
>>11249784That's amazing. Not sure if it fits but that's honestly for the better, I created this topic lamenting that the majority of these likely got trashed, possibly even soon after they were done taking photos. This was intentionally done to be put in a museum where they would stay preserved.Not that this is a bad thing by any means, I wish more of these models and dioramas ended up in preserved in a museum like this. Especially the ones from the 80s and early 90s.
>>11253152I still can't believe we actually got both Saturn and PS versions of Baroque translated.
how were there so many people with some 3d practical effects clay molding skill back then
>>11253891Probably because CGI was still expensive and unless you poured millions into it looked awful, and even if you did still had a very distinct overly shiny plastic/metal look back then. So skills in making physical models was still important to have for such things, and even then most art was a 2D drawing or a photograph of real people/locations rather than going through the effort of doing this.
>>11253907its definitely cool. all this cool and nice 3D stuff. and all the 2d art that looked like paintings. that stuff is cool. now everything is just game screenshots or little photoshopped stuff
>>11248814It was good when the economy was healthy and you could do whatever.
>>11253891Jobs existed.
>>11248814Looks like Lolo PThat was a decent puzzle game back in the day. Anyone saying video games are for kids I can almost guarantee have never played and beat Lolo Same reason I can't take zoomers serious when they tell me nes sucks. They had a lot of games like that back then with a lot of time put into those games
>>11254876I need to replay the Lolo trilogy. It's been many years for me.
>>11254876Eggerland is the Lolo series
Not much into these myself, but amazing thread
>>11255228After no less than a decade of UK egg themed games the Nips get one right?!
>>11248814>Same goes for just about any 80s and 90s era game which had such models for the cover art or the ads.Last month the Mother 2 guys had an exhibition for all their old clay models which are almost all mostly preserved! An anon went there and posted a shitton of pictures as well as japanese people on Twitter

>>11255274lol exactly
>>11255283>>11255287>>11255291Damn, nice. Those look practically brand new still.
>>11248814I like these threads. I'd buy an art book collecting all the old video game ads
>>11248814Pretty cool looking
>>11248814For me? It’s princess tomato
>>11255465I dont really have time to image dump but there was so much good shit.
diggy dope shit
>>11248846>were destroyed to make the toys.... what?
>>11249796Imagine a game with graphics like this
>>11261976They were dismantled to create the molds used for mass producing action figures.
>>11264034Mario RPG on the SNES is pretty close. I hoped the remake would lean into the diorama full of figurines style the original had instead of going with their usual generic 3D Mario style. At least they did better than I thought, it still retains half the charm of the original.

>>11248814Love these kinds of threads. Needs more clay / sculpture posts.
