Ok, I have been hush about this until now. I got a tour of Diagon and Knockturn Alleys and Carkitt plus some interior queues/shops a few days ago. I took pictures of some of the last minute corrections that have been demanded plus the notes of what each correction entails. Boy, UC and WB are strict and demanding! Enjoy!

PICT0184_zps9226ed7a.jpg

Bronze patina fail. This isn't what aged bronze looks like. Redetail and paint. See Mark - Nassal for examples.

PICT0187_zps26dc6ebd.jpg

Cast iron doen't look like this. Paint gloss too much. Repaint blacker.

PICT0185_zps214246cb.jpg

Stains do not have this much color. Repaint from scratch... age with watered down black paint stains only!

PICT0181_zps80b05605.jpg

Limestone? Really? Moss inauthentic. Redetail, repaint, re-everything. See Max - WB A&D

PICT0195_zps50671ef6.jpg

Wood grain inaccurate/poorly executed. Contact Jason @nassal for examples. repaint

PICT0177_zpsfd1b95d8.jpg

Poor casting... this is supposed to look like wood, not Papier-mâché. Destroy/redo. See Becky - UC

9dc653e2-3c87-448c-80c4-f04b7893110a_zps121cc0ed.jpg

Have tapestry reprinted with more authentic looking subject matter. Age more. See AG

PICT0200_zps1c7d1a03.jpg

Poor execution. Granite doesn't look like this! Repaint and apply far more watered-down black paint aging.

PICT0198_zps5b4c681c.jpg

Who sculpted this ugly thing? Remove and replace with new designs by AG.

PICT0196_zpsa2529a24.jpg

Where's the soot? Where is the SOOT!!!!!!

PICT0193_zps39f7bf09.jpg

Inauthentic paint job. Needs to look more granite-y. See AG for details/corrections

WOW, how on earth did you manage to keep quiet?

This explains your photoshop pics of the waterfront covered in blue tape.

Any other thoughts and/or observations from your (were all all so jealous) tour?

You trickster you :doh:

Not contumaciously...remember place making works on a conscious and subconscious level..Universal is all about place making..every detail should be excellent and reflect place..down to the napkins and trashcans

So if they are riding it, doesn't that refute the "nobody has ridden it" rumor. Definately some good new clips in this.

Could have always been testing a particular scene without it really moving right?

Great video, thanks!

Has anybody been watching Jimmy Fallon? Have they had any clips or new info on that show related to the Tonight Show contest?
