Hawkins National Laboratory

Many pivotal moments in the show revolve around Hawkins National Lab, and I wanted to try to capture that with this model. There is both an above world and upside down version, with the van and Castle Byers included. The model can be hinged to display both versions side by side, kept together to form the whole building, or be displayed so that the above world version sits atop the upside down version with a Shadow Monster tunnel running between the two.

The inside of the model has three floors which mirror each other. The floors include the main lobby, the lab with sensory deprivation tank and portal, a hospital room, and Eleven's solitary confinement room.The storage room in the above world version contains a hidden light brick that lights up the portal, and the upside down's sensory tank can be swiveled around to reveal a fold out "void" where Eleven first encounters the Demogorgon. 

Also, the floors are semi-modular / removable, allowing for easier access to each floor individually.
