Very cool! Makes me wish I just collected 3.75" figs instead so I can have more space for awesome dios like yours!

That looks really good. I like the barrier wall.

WIP update, after having a really busy couple of weeks with work and house sorting. I have actually found time to finally start painting this piece.

After applying a black undercoat, the bulk of the base has been sprayed using gunmetal grey. I have then used a black wash to pick out the details on the two towers. For the lift interiors, I've used steel paint for the girders, a light grey for the walls, a red wash for the lift floor and a metallic red for the circle in the middle.

The first floor is still only partially finished, again I have used gunmetal grey and so far used steel and artic blue on various panels and borders. The landing platform which needs a repaint, I've painted using artic blue but it has not turned out how I wanted so I will be adding a second coat or spray black and start again. I have added a steel border to see what it would look like.

There is still more to do!

Loving that landing platform! And the way your making Imperial deco in foam is astounding!

This looks really good! I like the steel colored border, for what its worth. It adds another dimension to the piece. The red on the lift floor is a nice touch as well.

In the midst of packing and doing my Star Wars diorama, I am also doing a three-tier building for a client. This piece is scaled for 6 to 7-inch figures and will include pavement, roof, alley and fire escape for my client to pose his figures on.

It will measure 55 cm x 39 cm x 35 cm, made out of foam board, held together with magnetic tape and designed to be flat packed for shipping and storage.

So far I have cut out all three sides and broken them down into three. I've used both 10 mm and 6 mm boards which have been glued together for extra strength and added magnetic tape to hold them together. For the ground floor, I've cut out the door for the front and then marked out the brickwork for the first tier.

My next steps will be to carry on marking out the brickwork for the next two tiers before adding on cornerstones two layers of borders running around the front to cover the joins of the tiers.

Thank you so much.  I've been playing JK2 on my X-Box (I am so happy I found it again) and took inspiration for the lift from that.

"Gonna be huge" - that's exactly what I thought when I saw the image this morning, even before I read Tamer's post. You've got a lot going on, so I'm really impressed with the progress you're making. But this new 6" build looks really good so far.

WIP update on the Landing Platform, before starting work yesterday I resprayed the landing platform and a couple of sections on the smaller platform with artic blue. After work, I painted the light walls, then using a bright yellow wash I painted around all the detail on the first floor.

My next step is to start working on the undersides of both platforms.

WIP update on the Three Tier Building, I spent last evening drawing on the brickwork for the middle tier and one wall of the bottom tier.

My next steps are to complete drawing on the brickwork, widen the door and add windows to the middle tier.
