Thanks Shawn, I am loving these Rogue One figures and I personally think they are Hasbro's best to date.

Cheers JD.

Hi All,

Here are the usual pics of Erso, Andor and KS20.

The figures are Hasbro's BS 6" series and I glued the joints then puttied them and once dry I covered Erso and Andor clothes in tissue and once dry painted and weathered them. I removed Andor's fake for hood and replaced it with fake fur. KS20 was just repainted and weathered.

The bases were done by using balsa wood for the base itself and the wall is foam board and balsa wood. I tore off areas of the foam board and scribed bricks into the foam using a pen and pencil, I then impressed a sandstone into the foam to give it a more natural look.

I then mixed spakfill and paint and covered the walls and ground and the objects on two of the dios are inhaler lids. Once the spakfilla and paint mix was dry I painted and weathered them.

Make sure to read my comments where I shared this on FB and my own personal page as I mean them. Great work Ron, all the way around.

Time to share. So cool to see you get new figures and see what dios you cook up for them. Plan on doing anything similar as far as attach together mini dios for the Imperial Rogue One offerings? I could so see you doing a ship or DS type mini dio for the director and some Death Troopers, etc.

Really appreciate the comments Shawn, thanks heaps mate. I have plans on doing something similar with two Death Troopers on Scarif and also once I get the Bnadai Death Troopers I'll be doing a DS style one as well with Krennic.

Hi All,

One final stages of the Look Sir Droids diorama. As you can see I have the sides attached and have almost filled the ground work up with scraps of foam and foam board this will keep the dio light.

I have to give the foam 24 hours to dry before I start doing the actual ground work because if I don't the spakfilla and paint mix will interact with the glue and the glue won't dry.

Looks great Ron. Can't wait to see this one finished. Off to share.

Pretty cool seeing your other dios in the background of your cabinets too.

Hi All,

While letting the plaster dry on the Look Sir Droids Dio I decided to make a small dio with Hasbro's BS 6" Farm boy Luke Training with his saber on the Falcon so far it's a WIP.

The joints have been glued except the upper body as the only joints that you'll see are the wrists. I will still need to putty the joints then add tissue on the legs and alter the wrap around and also using cloth for the boots.

The blast shield is BS 6" Luke X-wing Pilot and I cut the visor off and added the blast shield using plastic card. The base is a piece of thick Balsa wood and then I made the grate floor using plastic and covered the sides with plastic card as well.

 Wow! I like the Luke dio too! The floor effect is cool, and the soft goods look great.

Hey JD, Thanks buddy I picked up the top from a guy on ebay and he did an awesome job on it. All I need to do to it is make it fit and flow my naturally. The floor took me over an hour to make but well worth it, I wish I could find something that would suit the Falcon's floor as I want to make a few more of them.
