Wow Ron, looks like its Hemble Day. Nice work. Off to share.

Cheers Shawn and I'm enjoying doing all these custom/dios and just alternating from one to the other.

Your works are always beyond impressive!
Keep it up Ron.
BTW, how do you find the time?

Thanks mate and I'll be totally honest with you, I just make time to do it. I usually do a minimum of 2hrs a day but if I get more time to do it I will.

That's really cool. I like the quick barrel change handle and the drum magazine. Really looks awesome.

Cheers mate.

Hi All,

This small diorama depicts Kenobi about 10-12 years after the fall of the Jedi. Kenobi has just taken out a small squad of sandtroopers who were nosing around to close to the lars's homestead.
 
RECIPE
       
Kenobi - is a Hasbro 6" Black Series figure and has been put into a pose I liked then his joints were superglued and then puttied over. I then used tissue paper to cover the body and legs, I then used some old material I had and made the robe by cutting out a design then gluing it in place with cloth glue.
 
Base - is built up using high density foam as are the rocks. Once I got the look I liked I then covered the base with plaster and let it start to dry then I lighty pushed the helmet/ammo pouch and blaster into the plaster and then poured fine sand over the base.

Once the plaster/sand was dry I then made the severed neck section in the sandtroopers helmet by using AVES Fixit sculpt. Once the severed neck was dry I then painted and weathered the whole base and figure using Vallejo, GW paints and pastels.

This is fantastic! Off to share. You sure did turn what I thought was a pretty awful six inch figure into something worth buying!

Hi All,

Well I started on a probebot and thanks to HALCION for the inspiration when I saw his probebot I knew I had to give one a twirl (cheers mate). This is going to be for a large Sandtrooper dio I'm doing and still needs some wires and parts added.

This was made using an old webcam camera, toothpick lid, lego parts, 1/6 scale parts, 1/35 scale parts, 1/72 scale parts, plastic tubing, plasti card sheets, Hasbro SW parts and Revoltech joints.

You knew I would be all over this one. Wow, what I wouldn't give for Hasbro to make one of these. Fantastic Ron, that is sure a great list of parts!

Hi All,

Well the probe droid is almost complete but this is it for the night, I have done the painting which is a base of German Grey then a wash of Matt black and then I dry brushed it Medium Grey. I have started the weathering by using Gun Metal and then Mithril Silver and then Red brown pastels.
