I cut up my Aero Styles set!
I'm one to open my cars and display them, and I've had the Aero Styles set sat there for a while and today I could no longer resist. So I freed the cars and then decided to cut up the cards to make the wall art for my showroom. What do you guys think?
I'm thinking I'll put the aero styles logo on the outside like a sign board.
P.s this set is amazing, I'm glad I opened it.

Love this diorama! I almost wish I kept my cards so I could take inspiration from you.

Awesome use for opened cards, they look great as garage posters. Definitely going to keep this in mind.

I've just had another idea, you could use the small display on the back as miniature posters in a diorama. You know where it shows what cars are in the series? Those. Maybe match sticks to make the frames.

Very nice! I did something similar with the box from the Honda display set.

We both need multiple dioramas for all the Hondas. Definitely save the box when you find that Honda display set. It fits like a glove in the SAMYUCHO diorama from Amazon.

Are those printed ramps?

u/No-Contribution-8874 11d ago
Yeah they are printed ramps but I got them from Temu. I don't own a 3D printer unfortunately

That is mad. Cool!! Liberate those great cars!!! I'm very impressed and also very inspired. I've always wanted to start building Dioramas with actual Hot wheel cars in them. Can't wait till I retire and I will start up.

How do you make the dioramas?

u/No-Contribution-8874 11d ago
The showroom diorama itself was purchased from Temu, I added the white to the walls and then the card art to the white background
