Wow Ron, this already looks awesome. Off to share. You know I like the Hoth environment.

And I didn't know you were having surgery, hope you have a speedy recovery.

Thanks heaps Shawn and yeah the ankle is getting worse so they are going to fully fuse it this time instead of a partial fuse they did last year.

Hi All,

This was a commission I did for a mate in the States and he wanted an older Luke with a little belly and beard with grey thru it and his hair and he also wanted him to have a yellow saber blade. He also wanted him back on Hoth looking for around with a partial speeder in the background that he come in with.

Luke - is 3-3/4" scale and I glued the joints and puttied them up and used putty to do the beard and also added some putty under the lower section of the outfit to add just a little plump on his midsection.

The base was built up using foam board and the walls were done by ripping apart foam and gluing to the pieces to the wall and I then used spakfilla and covered the walls.

The hoses are just old computer cables and a head phone cable and the debri is left over parts I put together and painted and glued in place and the walking plates are square plastic card.

The top of the base has had rocks done by using Woodland Scenics rock molds and the snow is spakfilla and I used a small book lamp for the light. The background I got of the net and printed it out to give some depth to the back tunnel and the partial speeder was done using plastic card.

That looks great, Ron! I love the lighting effect and the thought you gave to make sure the "background" hanger looks done. Really amazing.

Thanks heaps mate and he wanted a wall when he told me but I thought that a backdrop would look way better and give the whole dio some depth and I'm glad I did as he really likes it.

Hi All,

I know a SW diorama finally LOL.

Next project is a Star Wars commission and will depict Luke taking on Imperial troops. There will be an AT-AT driver down on the ground with his right forearm down cut off with the other AT-AT driver dragging him away and the Snowtrooper is protecting them by firing at Luke.

I agree with Tamer! Excellent idea there! It'll look better than on the packaging! Those Centerpiece figures are on discount here, too atm. Started at 90€ ($100 USD) and are now around 15-20€...
Can't wait to see this dio completed which should be done yesteryear at your pace of work, Ron ;)
