I wonder what a space-station scene would look like by you...   ;D

Hmmmmmm......I'd probably go the Babylon 5 route with some Cloud City thrown in and base it in the CW era.  Have Clone Troopers patrolling and acting as a military police force and have aliens and humans going about their daily lives/business whatever that maybe.

Have a "working class" like the Ugnaughts of Cloud City, a droid smelter/used Droid lot and a massive docking bay with several ships docked and getting loaded and unloaded by labour droids and have officials checking manifests.  A diner like in AOTC is a must and a weapons depot & surplus armour store would be a must as well.

This really well done... I don't know how to pick a favorite area... it has real diversity (just like any busy street should)... I suppose if I had to choose a sweet spot, it would be the awning w/ the street vendors - found in most bustling backwater towns here on Earth - so it makes perfect everyday life sense that it look so ordinary, yet superbly crafted in that manner... KILLER dio man...
Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I'll ever know. Live & die on this day. How we die is equal to how we live. Once more into the breach, my friends, once more, or we close the walls up with our dead...

WOW....I woke this morning to find a pic of my dio on the front page....that was something awesome to wake up to  ;D

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated.  It's still a WIP and with the 20 or so more figures arriving soon the population should expand quite a bit.

I actually have one of these lieing around somewhere which was a donation from Hasbro back when they did that sort of thing. I can't think of a better way of paying it forward than donating it to Frank Diorio for his build. I am also still not sure I don't like the Potf2 sculpt better to be honest.

The Vintage Dewback was the best, I loved how the troopers legs went inside the poor creatures back  :o

I tend to agree with that feature too. So cool for its time. Why they couldn't still do things like that (especially for Astros) is beyond me.
