Thanks everyone! Yes Brian, I do prefer to display everything with some type of Diorama setting if I can.  Tom all I did was look at screen caps to figure out the design. Cut them out of styrofoam and hot glue + screw the pieces together. I covered everything with joint compound used for dry wall, let it dry, then sanded a bit. It kept cracking in various parts so I then coated it in wood glue. After that dried I spray painted it white then followed with tan allowing some of the white to show through. I still have to weather and dry brush it along with all the greeblies and details you see in the film. She has a way to go and I have all the Tatooine residents chomping at my heels!

I just keep thinking of you having an entire wall of these shelves clear across from the floor to the ceiling all filled with dioramas and your custom figs and vehicles. This is the type of thing I have in mind for my display cabinets if I can ever get my daggone ships out of them.

Well, I was not all the way happy with my wall texture on this set so I am redoing it. I sprayed the existing set up with orange peel then used a matte sealer. After that it was painted creme and highlighted with tan.













Then I gave it a yellow/tan wash.










Now I will do a bit more weathering and make some greeblies.
