I love seeing how a piece was done. Boy, oh boy, was this a lot of work! Just working out the layout of the room must have taken ages. Never mind how long it must have taken to glue this all together. GREAT JOB!!!!!!

Thank you! I only came up with the idea of the diorama a couple of weeks before the free-for-all. I spent most of those weeks (in the evenings) collecting the images, figuring out the layout and editing the images for use in the diorama (this part of the Making Of). But the actual physical building was done in the 1.5 days before the deadline; in fact the lion's share of the work was done on the day of the free-for-all, A true race against the clock!

Amazing! I'm impressed with your dedication to detail and glad to hear that headboard-breaking was practically canon in the comics. :)

Thanks! And yeah, it was nice to find some evidence :-)
