Ron Hembling shares a new Star Wars Diorama...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, June 26 2022

"Hi All,

Imperial Assault on Jakku, 1:28mm.

Recipe.

LAAT/LE, Troopers - the LAAT/LE's are from Fantasy Flight Games and where built straight out of the box and the details are awesome on this kit. The dead troopers/running troopers are from DarkFire Designs and the trooper with his helmet off with an injured trooper/pilots/troopers repelling/sitting in the LAAT are from SkullForge Designs, the LAAT's and troopers were all painted and weathered using Vallejo paints and pastel chalks.

Base - is a cheap shelf which hangs on the wall and is MDF and once built I turned it upside down, the sand is fine washed sand and spakfilla mixed together and the rocks are kitty litter and once dry I used Vallejo Paints and pastel chalks.

Ron"

Doesn't this look like it just rolled off the screen!

-- Posted by Tamer on Wednesday, June 22 2022

"The last two members of Vaari's pirate command crew:

C.A.M.I. - (Communications Augmented for Military Intervention) is what the crew calls their droid Communications Officer.

Sarm Nid’Nessar – Sakiyan Chief Gunner. It’s said Sarm was responsible for the training of one Sidon Ithano and is one of few pirates that Ithano looks up to and possibly even fears."

Dan shares word on new Buzz Lightyear ATV...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, June 14 2022

"Saw this tonight at Target.

It is intended for 5" figures, but it is undersized and would be just about perfect for 3.75"/4" figures."

It looks to be perfect.



Ron Hembling is back with a new Star Wars Ship Dio!
-- Posted by Tamer on Monday, June 13 2022

"Hi All,

Battle of Tatooine, 1:144 scale.

Recipe.

Fighters/figures - the Tie and X-wing fighters are from Bandai and built straight out of the box and the Sandtroopers are from Dark Fire Designs over on Gumroad, they are SW Legion scale and I just rescaled them down to 1:144 scale.

Base - is some old Bandai bases with balsa wood sides, the rock outcrops are moulds from plaster using Woodland Scenics Rubber rock moulds and the small rocks/boulders was done using kitty litter and the sand is a mix of spakfilla/sand.

Ron"

It looks to me like it just popped off the screen!

StarFall shares a Mandalorian Demon...
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, June 9 2022

"The Mandos continue with a new villain joining Klaev Viddeck's ranks. This character was inspired by some elements of Japanese demons, specifically Oni and Yokai and the popular masks and designs depicting them in Japanese culture. I felt the red armor and white bone elements of Kalev's crew worked very well with the typical depiction of Japanese demons with red skin, big sharp protruding teeth, and horns."

I really like the look of this one!

RCW Creations finishes off 4 separate dioramas!
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, June 5 2022
"I wiped these two Star Wars Display dios for 3.75" figures which I have whipped up over the past couple of days.

This modular display is for 3.75? Star Wars figures, made from foam board of 6 & 10 mm thickness. It is a single piece of foam with layers of foam added to it. Its measurements are 6.5? x 8? x 6?, all pieces are glued together using PVA glue, therefore waiting time for the glue to dry is about 24 hours."

As if these two were not enough, he has final images for his 3 story building, building entrance, and temple ruins.

Just a massive update!

Darth More customizes up some awesome 6" Display Stands...
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, June 2 2022

"These display stands will save your nerves as they saved mine!

The bigger bases for 6 inch figures arrived on Monday and I cannot tell how much I like them. Some of my The Black Series figures kept falling no matter what. Especially Ahsoka Tano always made me worry to break her lightsabers. Also General Grievous was crtizised to not have peg holes...

So here's my solution:

And such a good one it is too! These work great and you can hardly see the band around the foot!
