Time to give that facebook link a shout out on our pages too!

Very nice! I would think the ILM Folks would love to see this. You have got to send them pictures of this!

Your latest diorama is something really special. A real homage to a moment in time where true magic was made. If any of the original crew saw this I bet it would bring a tear to their eyes.

This is looking amazing, I just love your detailing and is that Balsa Foam and if so is it good to work with?

Thanks my friend  :)  and thanks to Shawn for placing this project on the frontpage  0/

The "Rock-Wall" is made of Styrofoam, all the other parts are made of 5mm FOREX (hard) foam boards.

Yesterday I did some "wallpainting":

I am playing catch up after getting back from a vacation, but wow this is going on the front page. Awesome work. I can't wait to see this with an X-Wing on it. More comments on the front page.

The lighting really adds to the atmosphere of the hanger and I can't wait to see it fully complete.
