ones it's finished i'll delet all pic and only leaf the finished product
next is sanding down, alot of sanding
then checking where i missed some plaster and do some touch ups then again sanding
then w'ell start on the painting

Jimmy, I think once your finished you need to work out a 'How to' for Cobra, its fan made and its wicked! I think a thread from start to end is the way to go! I would love to make one, but I would'nt want to do it without a guide

Wow Jim that looks fookin ace lit up m8, great work and attention to detail, i love those pix
Yes definately make a guide for this, ive never seen anything like that before.
BTW - to make a guide does not need my authorisation nor do i have to think it is good, if its fan made and Star Wars related then it should be added here in all its glory and for others to follow and learn from
This applies to all Dioramas etc.
If you made it - we want it
I will stress if theres any danger from lamps melting things or paint that gasses you - health and safety must come first, no exceptions!
Ive only just found this thread BTW so ill be looking what else is here now

@leah , thanks for the comment, i should continue with the project but iam scared i'll fuck up painting the palace
@rob , i only use colored christmas lights , so that should be save enough , plus there is alway a piece of
plastick between the light and where it's suppose to shine so i guess , that give's some extra protection,
but hey , everything i got is in a room with no lights (excetp the ones from the cabinet ), not that that matters
because , wampa's chance colour in theire original packing so , i guess in an other 30 years , where all fucked

I thought you would like it Jim, thats to cheer you up m8
Guys, i did say a week from when it arrives, i know James's will take a lot longer getting to OZ but no worries, i think ill just let you do them in your own time and shout out "ready" when you are both finished, then well take a gander
Thanks Jay i couldnt fit more photos in as the song only lasts about 2.45
If anyone wants their collection or Dioramas Video- showcased like i done with Jimmys give me a shout and let me know your chosen backing track

Looks awesome Jimmy!
I also think you have got the colour totally spot on buddy
What i really love about this dio is the attention to detail and the fact that vintage figures have been used as well.
Great work bro

Jimmy... I was just thinking. I know you made your own Max Rebo Band drum. But didnt they sell one packed in with one of the 30th Anniv figs.... Umpass-Stay i think?!?!?!? Might make things easier on you. Just an idea.

With Chris on this one , the original colour was just so dark and flat, you now have got it much closer to a sandy texture just like the real set up and it looks a lot better!
Well done Jimmy
