Excellent!  I like the work you did on the head.  And the story is great, I never thought about investigators and rights activists in the Star Wars setting.

Thanks so much M-. Sculpting her head was a little fiddly, but I'm really pleased with her. I figure there's got to be more than soldiers, bounty hunters and pilots in the Star Wars universe, right?

Well, Starchaser has finally done it...he's designed and built his first original piece for a diorama. (JDeck says, "'bout time"):










 
A small generator with communication tower and radar that Ferron Salmi designed and installed for his salvage yard in Safa Thewel on Farsolax.

This was built from the plastic inset for an electronics box, an HO scale communication antenna model, a radar dish off a Micro Machines Endor playset, wood hexes, bottle caps, and bits from a pen. The antenna and radar dish are attached via magnets for easier storage. The base is XPS foam carved as a stone foundation and painted.

That looks great to me. Very nice. Reminds me of a small power generator station you would see at any remote outpost.

Off to share.

Nicely done!.  Those diorama pieces are always harder to pull off than they look and you did an excellent job!

Thanks, Tamer. That's exactly the impression I was going for.

Thank, Moronarama. Your right, it took longer than I expected, but not as long as it could have!   :)

Late to the party. I've been lurking, checking in everyday, just not posting. Your generator looks awesome. Now you have the fever, next thing you know you'll see star wars parts in everything until you have a whole room full of bits and pieces. Lol. It is awesome i love seeing trash to treasure builds.

Thanks, JDeck! Yeah...I've got a few tubs ;D I'm hoping when there is some space in my garage, to get to building the rest of the scrapyard (and more).

Thanks Lenny. If I can get my garage cleaned up, I'll be able to build out the rest of the salvage yard.
