Thanks guys!  I hope everyone realizes/read that the background is photoshopped in for the outdoor Hoth images.  Eventually I will paint a "similar" backdrop, but it won't be photorealistic like the photoshops.

Here is a before and after.....sorry to destroy the illusion!






Have a few more images and gifs I'm working on, but here are a couple more for now....






Thanks again for all the kind words.

Mate I for one don't care if there is PS work involved your work is exceptional with or without any PS work.

I agree. I like the PS images too. It is like the image HB94 just did of his custom ship in an action pose or Triple SSS with his Bwing. I think it just adds to the whole effect.

The fact that your ps elements mesh together so well with the dio elements is a testament to how good your dio looks.

your trench area with the ps elements in the background is just damn convincing and could easily be confused with a frame from the movie.

Thanks guys, but as you can see, Spooky is the master of creative PS!  I'm more of a cut and paster...     ;) ;)

A couple of animated gifs on their way...

Thanks Art DeWhill!  Would be a fun project.....perhaps NEXT winter!  (Unless some other dio overtakes me!?!)

Here are a couple of other shots of Leia and Rieekan:

Agh! This thing just keeps going! Absolutely incredible, just when I think this set can't get anymore expansive, intricate and utterly impressive. I feel like I should be jealous of your skill... but instead I just find myself just wishing I could play with this thing.  ;D ;D ;D
Hopefully Hasbro will take notice of this and release something this big based on your example.
The exploits of my life are less canonical than they are legendary.
