We often play Steven Richter's hypnotic time-lapse videos, which include artists sculpting memorable Marvel characters such as Thanos. But Richter is obviously equally talented in brushes and clay blocks, because they turned the plastic entertainment of Jumanji board games into props that can be seen directly from the movie.

A children’s book published by writer Chris Van Allsburg in 1981 has developed into a full-fledged Hollywood franchise, first made by Robin Williams in 1995 Help bring this story to the screen, and then stars like Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart continue the story from two other Brave movies released in recent years. Therefore, there is no lack of non-cursing Jumanji board games in toy stores, but Spin Master’s $45 Jumanji Deluxe Game stands out with its lights and sounds and a plastic shell with 3D embossed, almost looking like a game that appears in a movie. Version-almost.

Richter's upgrade first is to add a custom wooden backboard to the originally completely hollow plastic game board, so that the final result looks like the whole thing is hand-carved with wood. From there, they covered the actual playing surface with painter's tape and sandblasted the whole thing with some brown spray paint before carefully removing the cover part and working their magic.

There is no denying that the game version of Spin Master is already very detailed, but Richter has added several levels through hand-painted processing, adding colors, shadows and extensive weathering, so it seems that this copy of Jumanji has really been lost and time and time again. Was found throughout the ages. This is a one-off creation, but Richter has actually sold it through Etsy for $200. Considering its gorgeous plastic surgery workload, it actually looks like a bargain.
