Thanks Chewie, thanks poke-wars  ;D

I recently did a commission job for a SW friend of mine here in Australia and I have a second lot of containers ready to ship to him in the next few weeks.  This mate of mine is using them for his G.I.Joe dios.

Welcome back, buddy! I love the filler stuff. I see you have been able to find some of the black series stuff. Has hasbro distribution changed any for the better down under?

Yeah it's picked up a lot.  We got the second wave of the BS first then the first one turned up about a month after.  The Plageuis wave is turning up in some stores.  I found the wave at my local TRU and purchased Merumeru for a trade and a few Targets have been stocking it as well.  I have no interest in this wave.  The next one is the one I'm very keen on.

Cheers Tamer, thanks heaps bud.   ;D

The recipe is pretty basic.  I tend to raid chemists, discount stores and various supermarkets to get my "stuff".

Nice work!  I tend to use a lot of bottlecaps and other little things that can be easily cut.  How did you go about "weathering" the props?  Airbrush?

Thanks bud.  For weathering I do dry brushing and light coats of spray paint and wiped off with clean cloths

hey those crates and containers look pretty cool, you should have them cast and sold!

Thanks guys.  Your words of encouragement are very much appreciated  ;D

I have thought about casting these but for my own purposes really.  Two things are holding me back however: 1) I have no idea how to cast anything and 2) would anyone actually buy them? hahahahaha.

I have done some on a commission bases for a friend here in Queensland (Australia) but he uses them for his G.I.Joe figures.

I have done some work today on some new ones.  I found some parts that I've never used and seen before so once they're all painted up tomorrow (once the glue dries solid) I'll see how they look.

Some completed stuff...more coming that are in various stages of assembly, gluing and painting.  The 2 smaller ones will be for Tatooine and the larger one will be for a Clone set up I have planned.
