3,720 to 1
« on: January 03, 2016, 08:29:22 PM »
A little diorama I put together today for my desk at work. 

Started with a revel pocket kit falcon and some micro machines....



add some LEDS




damage a tie fighter...



add a flickering candle LED




build a base and get some brass rods and asteroids (lave rocks!)...


add a persuer


test fit:


Weather that falcon:


repaint those rocks so they look more like asteroids instead of red lava rocks....

put it all together and voila:












Not entirely finished.  I need to anchor the brass rods and make a felt bottom pad for it...   But I thought I'd share what I have.   I promise I'll get out my photo booth and take some quality pictures of it when everything is finished and dry.

That is fantastic Devin. I really like it. Adding that lights just takes it up a notch if you ask me. Off to share.

battery packs are underneath in the base.  I'll get a photo of the whole thing in better conditions and lighting when it's finished so you can actually see the battery packs and stuff.

I know I would love to have something like this on my desk at work.
