I love the fact that you turned a bunch of pipes, metal grilles, and and fiddly bits into this. It is an AWESOME hangar.
I still think that the mirror is the best part you added. Kinda gives the impression that you could travell through it into a second hangar.
Great work.

Jay, your comment is so perfect. Just wait, I plan to do a video showing a special feature for that scenario.

Thanks so much M4KER1, XTS, drod26, Tamer and benjani_1976!


So last week I was contemplating what I should have next to this hangarbay. I want some type of briefing room to store atleast 30 of my pilots. A storage room/repair shop to hald around 25 droids, and I would love to fit in a Pilots locker room. So this is the begining of mock ups for the briefing room.










I like this set up as it would be modular and removable. I may do like Spookymufu did with his Echo Base diorama and have these sections removable to enlarge the hanger or plug in another dio when I want.

Then I moved that room aside and started figuring out more machinery/bits for the ceiling and back wall. Thank the maker I had some help from these hard woorking Rebels.

OMG LE that breifing room is sick! Is that a milk crate section behind the pilots? Now that i am building them i am paying more attention to the materials others are using so I can keep an eye for the stuff I need to build with. Great work again! Some of the shots look like they are from the movies or could be.

As always your work is beautiful and inspiring!

I notice a Xarcce Huwlla if I´m not mistaken?! Being a pilot fiend myself I´d like to know what head you used, or did you sculpt it yourself?

I´d love to make one of those myself

OOOO YEAH. The Uncle Milton table is the perfect size for for the holotable.
The hanger just looks so much better with your added bits.

Thanks again everyone!

Shamanlogray, yes, this is the majority of my X-Wing pilots. I still have more Snowspeeder, A-Wing, B-Wing and Y-Wing pilots.

Thanks so much Shawn!

Tankster, that mirror is my favorite part too!

Thanks Chad! The piece behing the pilots is a stackable shelf system from the thrift store for $2. I have about 8 more pieces that size. A milk crate panel is another great idea and would have a bit more texture than this. I bet it would work fine or even better.

Darth MsBane, thanks and you are correct. The Xarcce head sculpt is from my friend xDarth Sinisterx.

M4ker1, you are right and I knew I would use this table one day as soon as I saw it!

No matter how cool this diorama is (and believe me it is amazing!) I just can't seem to take my eyes off that custom Destro's D.E.M.O.N. ship!! That is still one of the coolest customs I have ever seen!

Thanks guys! and Jason I too love that vehicle asd I think it is because it is perfectly a symetrical.

Ray thanks for compliment, you have made my day. That is the look I am going for with this project. ;D

I would say it is about 85% complete at this point and I can't stop taking pictures of various scenes stored in my mind. For starters, I have applied a flat sealer to the following figures. Some are old and some are new head swaps. I wish I had a few more RFT's if anyone can help.





2 mechanics from my previous base dio.














So then I made a quick and easy vehicle maintenance stantion. The paint is almost dry on it now and I will have another update tomorrow.
