Madame Tussauds – Sydney

After completing the Justice League project – the client was so happy with our work that we were requested to come back to site to carry out additional work – which was the Bollywood scene.

This work consisted of a file set layout with a train coming through the wall and a motorbike traveling over the railway tracks.  This work included a lot of drop shadows to the floor to create depth into the completed scene.  This also included shadows from the train to create a realistic look.

Floor System:

• Stamped Overlay

Merlin was going through a re-fit of the main tank and wanted a flooring system that covered around ¾ of the main exhibit.  It was based on a raised platform and resurfaced by other contractors prior to our arrival. The contractors (prior to us) introduced a hardy board (which is a concrete base board) which we had to mesh the joints and seal in with an epoxy prior to us commencing the main floor works.

Once we had completed the meshing and joint detail, we applied a self levelling epoxy over the floor surfacing to make the floor level.  The advantages of using pure epoxy as a leveler is that is doesn’t re-soften if hit with moisture.  The additional scope of the works was to have a beach scene that could project a turtle hatching scene – which is demonstrated in our photos.  The floor projection color was customized for the optimum color that would show the best effect.

We had already completed the Justice League project at Madame Tussauds, Orlando – where we worked directly with Warner Brothers and the Merlin Creative Team to create the Justice League exhibit in Orlando. We were then recommended to keep the consistence of brand alive by carrying the same themed floors within the Justice League in Madame Tussauds, Sydney.  The theme consists of Lex Luther Corp, the street scene from the Flash, Wonder Woman, Aqua-man, Superman among others. This project and floors were installed alongside Daniel Woodlands and our flooring works were fully complete within a 10-day period.
