Hackcore.... What an entrance!

There really are no words! well there are, but they are usually preceded with several words that cannot be shown on this forum....Sorry guys but single syllable words just don't do this drool making, totally jaw dropping work of art justice....

Every detail , every tiny part has been perfectly placed. the sheer scale and precision is just awesome!  To be given such a creative gift, to be so skilled really is proof that there must be a God.

Hackcore, your work is that of a genius, and for an almost lifelong Star Wars fan and keen model maker I really am blown away. I've got the picture book of the movie models from Star Wars and no word of a lie, yours are indistinguishable. In fact some of your Star Wars models have never even been created by ILM, so they are totally unique. The YT freighter, it's not a 2000, it's a larger variant, is a thing of wonder, another one-off of pure awesomeness. Also your weathering, it's totally consistent and absolutely spot on. Each skill set you have is just mind blowing.

It really is a privilege having you here at ISY.  Your work is featured on our front page!

Welcome!

I just don't know what to say...my brain just melted. Let me go back and look at these pictures, maybe I'll be able to put my thoughts into words after taking this in for the second time. That YT is breath taking as is every piece of your diorama.

I have officially given up scratch building anything. 

This is amazing.  I realy love this dio.  It's very very well crafted, the scratchbuilt freighter is genious. 

May I ask what scale these models are in?  is it 1/177?  Are there any actual model kits being used here and if so which ones?  or (and if so i'm even more flabergasted) are the standard ships (x-wing, y-wing, a-wing) all scratchbuilt as well?

are you casting/sculpting your own figures for this?  that rodian pilot is amazingly detailed for the scale!

does the dio come apart to allow you to photograph inside it?
were the background space shots added in digitally or are they removable backdrops for the dio?

I also realy love the addition of lighting in this.  I'd love to see your circuitry for the LED-system and ANY work in progress photos you may have.

I would LOVE to see more images of this and other projects you might have to offer....

LOL  ;D Yes the YT-2010 is bigger than the Otana and have more firepower with the gatlings. My mate Brett from the netherlands did the design and started this model but he had to quit his beloved hobby and i finished the model.

Mate firstly welcome to the shipyards and secondly what a diorama, this thing is without a doubt one the best 1/72 dios I've seen for a very very long time.

The details are fantastic and even look more amazing with the awesome paint apps, the thing I really like about this dio is that you have alot of activity going on without cluttering up the dio which is a very hard thing to pulll off. My hat comes off to you sir simply breathtaking and look forward to seeing more of your amazing work.
