tantive IV

Wow Dutch nice work!
What kind of material did you use for the Tantive hall?

It 5uck5 that the blaster was missing Why didn't you check it before you bought it (maybe just to check IF he is inside the box )

The Tantive hall consists mainly of MDF. I also used some foamboard for the curves between the pilars, but it's mainly wood (I wanted the dio to last but the thing weighs a ton).

About the blaster.....I guess I'm to trustworthy but I'll tell you, every next figure I buy, the box opens at the dealer!!! But thanks to Chaks, the figure is yet again complete!!

I love your dioramas! You don't collect figures, but film's screenshots and scenes! I love it!

Ok, here's an update. Got the door done (thanks Dorgs!) and the thing in the front (what the hell is that, anyway??). Of course the whole thing needs to be painted......

Greetings Sideshow Sailors, another update.... as you can see I've been busy this weekend working on some props. Tried to be as movie accurate as possible. I'm not sure about the color of the ......thing. I'm pretty happy about how the crates turned out. I've also filled up the cracks and holes on the diorama itself. Next step.... covering the hole thing in plaster (hope it will stick ).

 

[Balsquat]

Wow. I thought the first post was a movie still for real!
Lots of detail in your newest props. Well done!

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Looks pretty chuffin spot on to me mate!!! Love it!

 

[big guy]

I just love the way you and some of the other talented guys on here cover the smallest detail for Maximum effect.
Impressive, most impressive.

Great work F.D , the idea of stacking the dio's is a stroke of ( twisted) genius ! I wish I had the display space to do likewise . ( The Wife/Commandant is quite strict on what I have out for public display )

 

[AndreTK421]

Another EPIC DIO!!!!!

 

[clparker04]

Hi Sideshow sailors, another update. I've been plastering and oh boy, what a mess....the wife wasn't to happy about everything else being plastered as well. But the result is satisfying...... Also a bit of work on the "thing" and I repainted it. Much better in my opinion.
Next....the grid on the front (I've been trying several techniques and it's going to be pretty tough) and the lights. Also three more crates so I'll be busy the next week or so.
So long.....
