tantive IV

[enaud]

I'm with dh4.At first glance I too thought it was a still from the movie.You did an awesome job on that.

...If I would do it again I'd get one piece of wood, saw out the middle and file/sand the angles into curves.

I was thinking,if you have a router,you might could cut the hole for the door opening & go over the inside of the opening with a radiused(or roundover)bit,say 3/4"(19mm),to create the inside curve.

My God that is beautiful. You truely captured that scene on the ship and as others have said, how life like to.

As for the upcoming project, I cannot wait.

 

[enaud]

I know, I got the basic idea from him. I think the basic layout is great and I'm gonna use it for mine. I'll try to make accessoires a bit more movie accurate.

Looks really, realy good so far. I am liking the attention to all the small details. Nice job!

 

[Hewer]

Very nice work mate that is an awesome job and can't wait to see it completed.

Hey guys, I've started my docking bay 94 diorama. I've used the same dimensions as my tantive diorama so I'll get an awsome towerdiorama (or dioramatower as you will)

I will keep you all updated on this project.

 

[big guy]

Now not only two great dios but one perfect way to show them off in the "DIOTOWER".

 

[the dude person]

This will have to be the most awesomest display ever! (Until Dorgs finishes his 1/6 Death Star )

Can't wait so see it, after seeing the tantive IV hallway, I know it's going to look amazing.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

ahh man its gonna be grand and I KEEP looking at your Tantive and I just love it so much I would still love to see loads more pics of it and some more close up....

 

[Brinn 71]

That is STUNNING MAN!! WELL DONE!

 

[TheGent]

Now this some very die hard OMG diorama! So nice to see some ANH stillz, I love that entering sequence so much. Dock 94 or more Mos Isley is really the best chance to show some used, dirty spots of the universe ...

 

[LOPIE]

WOW thats great

 

[flying dutchman]

Well, been "working" for a couple of hours and so far I'm pretty pleased. I guess the foundation is as important as the details. It isn't permanent yet. Next.... a blue and red light. I think I'm going to look for a toy police- and firetruck, bash it up and use the lights. Anybody with another idea? (I'm no electrician so it's gotta be something simple)

 

[Crimsonbob]

Thats damn cool i love it
