That is looking really great! Can't wait to see it finished. I like the Vader pose.

Thanks heaps buddy, I had to boil the hands so that they would clutch the control boxes correctly and then super glue them in place but the end result looks great.

So this dio thread has been read over 29,000 times and remember this is a second dio thread you created after you had another one that was 63 pages long. Man, such an awesome history Ron.

I can merge your two dio threads together if you would like sometime.

Hi All,

Vader and Tarkin 1:12 scale.

This was done a while ago but due to bad weather I haven't been able to take my usual outdoor pics until now.

Recipe.

Vader and Tarkin - are both Hasbro BS 6" figures and have had their joints glued and sealed and then repainted using Vallejo paints. Tarkins chair is made of plastic card and plastic rod.

Base - is a picture frame and plastic used for the floor and the walls were printed by a friend we did a trade for. I used clear resin with a few drops of white paint and then poured into the light section to give them a more realistic look and the floor was done using clear contact sheet.

It looks like those lights are lighted up. Just a great job all around I agree.

That chair is fantastic, Ron! I’m loving Tarkins paint, man. He is especially pretty. My eye draws right to him

Oh, and congrats on the milestones of your thread and the one before, Ron. Your continued supply of custom genius has inspired myself and many for years.

Thanks so much Clint on both comments mate and Hasbro really are doing great head sculpts and they just need some TLC to bring out the great details.

Really outstanding project! The poses are great - I feel like Tarkin needs a drink in his hand:) The chair looks excellent and your paint job is beautiful. This is a gorgeous diorama.
