Dan Baker's Pillar of Autumn Display

in late June, 2007, Dan Baker released some pictures of a scale-built display of the Pillar of Autumn that he created to house his Halo action figures. This originally showed up on the Mjolnir Armor forums.

I got tired of looking at my Halo action figures standing blandly on my desk like pieces in a museum, so I designed a display. It's a shortened cross-section of a corridor in the Pillar of Autumn. Check it out. As it is, the section between girders is only half of what it should be (in scale) - I wanted it to actually fit on top of my desk. True to scale, the girders are 18" tall, which would make the entire corridor over 5 feet across! Mine is set up for my corner desk, but that may work better as a single-shelf design. Maybe even a two-story design, like the part in Pillar of Autumn where Master Chief has to run up the stairs to the second level- full of Covies. Hmmm....

Step through his pictures below; there are comments as you go.
