Tokyo cultural center for popular culture - Anime/Manga/Videogame/Idols
practically an extension of Akihabara

(example of akihabara if u never been in tokyo)

Day and night version of Akihabara


my project




and at night ^_^ (used fluorescent PLA!)


photo is taken with my lame phone i need to get my camera set up to with stand to get the picture at night

the tree building connected to the new cultural center are

purple tunnel to a school
yellow tunnel TV station
green tunnel a Hotel

That is beyond cool! (Are those little Marios?)

yes they are the building itself is inspired by platform game as well jumping from one color to another


to do this project i used
Doraemon Statue
Pikacu statue
I donwloaded but didn't use Gohan
I download but didn't use (yet) Totoro (both small and big slightly different models)
Mario&Luigi (same model just different color)

they are all the best i could find in internet and i did fix the hole in the geometry as well as simplified them a little if someone need them

As test i tryed putting inside the LED as well unfortunately it doesn't look good in picture


the LED look good in real but bad in picture and if i use the flash they are barely noticeable the fluorescent effect of the pla is much more interesting but it last 10-15 minutes if u charge the piece the all day

i am sure i will find a good use for the LED but the room of this building are too small and the light is too spotty
