The 'real' Takodana: I was recently on holiday in the Lake District in England and took a few figures with me to do some location shots. Here is a shot looking across Derwent Water towards Borrowdale from Friar's Crag, Keswick. I think the actual shot across the lake in The Force Awakens was taken from the island you can see in the distance.

This shot features a custom 3.75" Han Solo made from TBS TFA Han with arms from Comic Pack Fixer Loneozner, and jacket from basic 5POA TFA Han. Modified 3.75" TBS Rey (Jakku) with hands from TBS Toryn Farr.

This is a beautiful shot! And it was such a cool idea to take some action figures with you when you went to the original film set. These are two great customs, too! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
When I saw this picture I immediately went on Instagram to see if you posted it on there, too. Luckily I found your account right away and was surprised with joy when I saw more pictures of your trip there! Well, now you got another follower on there. I’m looking forward to seeing these pictures on here, too, for all members here who don’t have an Insta account. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your comments Philipp, and for following.
Here are some more location shots taken of 3.75" TBS First Order Stormtroopers and Rey at Manesty Park on the southern edge of Derwent Water. In the first shot you can see the same fells (also in the previous Han & Rey shot) that are in the background when the Stormtroopers first notice the X-Wings approaching in The Force Awakens, although most of the X-Wing approach footage was shot over Thirlmere, and the forest scenes in the film were shot in the Forest Of Dean, Gloucestershire.

Here's some images of a Dark Side Rey 6" custom I have done. The sunset was an image on a laptop screen with the figure placed in front.

These two images were shot with a large mirror angled to see the sky behind the figure.
