Dead Walk Designs 🎢🎨🎡

🎃 We built three spooky LEGO heads for LEGOLAND Windsor's Brick or Treat event in 2019. 💀 Last Halloween, Merlin Magic Making asked us to give the original pumpkin heads a fresh paint job and to create three new skull versions too! Project info: buff.ly/3RVwZVR

Here's a Q&A with Simon, whose jobs at Dead Walk Designs have included making a giant titan head and a post-apocalyptic pub! buff.ly/3QAr8pv

@HalfNorthern Thank you! 🏌️

@deadwalkdesigns This looks great!

The new Fallout TV series has helped boost interest in post-apocalyptic settings! This year, we enjoyed creating a vibrant post-apocalyptic city at Belfast's Lost City Adventure Golf. It was lots of fun to imagine the modern world overgrown with plants! buff.ly/3wscfi2

@BigBlueNature Times have changed! 😄 - Liam

@deadwalkdesigns ... amusingly, in the early 1980s (25 years before iPhone!) I was the interactive visual designer for an IBM pan-euro launch of their PC using radically new 'touch-screen' technology! Main feedback? - touchscreen tech was perceived as being 'unhygenic'! Now look at us😉

Things can get broken if they're not made properly! 🔨 Our new article shares a couple of projects where it's been necessary to design for longevity when building interactive features: buff.ly/3TA26HI

This week's Q&A is with Liam, a designer on the team who has most recently been helping out with marketing projects! 🗞️ buff.ly/43LXOSo

After a weekend of mini eggs, mini chicks and mini rabbits, we thought we'd share one of our mini projects: a small-scale Mauritius! This hand-sculpted model for Discovery Centre at Casela Park included details such as mountains, towns and a coastline. buff.ly/3TCFO8f

Here's a step-by-step look at how we make features with cement, and how the material can be used to achieve incredibly natural-looking results! 🪨🌳🖌️ buff.ly/3x0Syhl

Sticking to a limited colour palette helps maintain the mood and appeal of a scene. When designing or theming, we think about how the colours can strengthen the visual and help main features stand out (even if they're camouflaged!). buff.ly/40R3wAA

A great article by Theme Park Magazine about The Apprentice featuring a couple of projects we worked on 😊📺 buff.ly/49UT3rw

Those watching BBC’s The Apprentice last week might have spotted a couple of escape room projects that we worked on at Dead Walk Designs! Read about it here! deadwalkdesigns.com/dead-walk-desi…

To create the panel for a Tank Museum display, we 3D printed a number of dials and buttons. These printed pieces were then fixed to a piece of plywood. Everything was painted with enamels, including 'oil stains', with reference to photographs. 🖌️ deadwalkdesigns.com/project/tank-u…

Every member of the team at Dead Walk Designs has their own unique skills that they bring to our projects. In this week’s Q&A, we’re talking to Bevis, whose amazing theming and finishing work helps bring attractions to life! deadwalkdesigns.com/qa-with-bevis-…

The 7-metre tall Titan we created for Boomtown Fair last year was designed with sustainability in mind! 🌎💚 The structure was made out of plywood, wire mesh, natural mineral paint and even old bedsheets! deadwalkdesigns.com/project/titan-…

Here are some of the 3D designs for the attraction by @deadwalkdesigns

Escape room projects mean our workshop gets filled with strange contraptions! Here are some of the features we created for the Gates of Hell escape room 🪚 deadwalkdesigns.com/project/gates-…

🖌️ There are lots of different services that we offer at Dead Walk Designs, including mural work, sculpting, model-making and VR visuals. We've listed the different services available to help customers find what they're looking for. 😊 👉 deadwalkdesigns.com/services/

The Dead Walk Designs team often refers to books for knowledge or inspiration during projects. If you are new to attraction design, you might find some of these recommendations handy! deadwalkdesigns.com/4-useful-books…

We have enjoyed working on attractions in unique locations around the world. One of Dead Walk Designs' earliest projects was for an adventure park in Mauritius, and we were excited to end 2023 in Northern Ireland! 🌎 We are looking forward to 2024's adventures!

Our team had a lovely gathering at Denbossa Club, which we enjoyed creating designs and theming for in 2022! deadwalkdesigns.com/project/denbos…
