Are you in possesion of all the figures for this "baby".

I have some stock figures that will be from the film and I'm working on getting some that I don't have.  There will also be quite a few customs thrown in there to fill it out.

EDIT:  Of course, if anyone has any spare figures or parts they'd like to donate I'd gladly accept them ;)   Or, any heads and hands I could use to cobble some aliens together with some of the body parts I have.  Let me know.

 Also, I'd go with a different texture if I had it to do again. Actually, it might bug me so much that I redo the texture for this version but if I did it wouldn’t be for a while.


Perhaps if looks different in person, but from your photos, I think the texture looks superb.  In fact, I'm interested in knowing what you used.  Also, if you did redo it, what would you use instead?


And CloneSniper78, I thought your input on scales was informative and interesting--I certainly had no problem with it.  (If I did, I'd need to apologize for my input too.)   :)

It does look a little different in person.  What I used was regular spackle.  I don't mind too much but I prefer some other textures that I've seen.  Here is a link to a site where I really like what this customizer has done with the  Mos Eisley environments and would like to imitate it.  He makes some really cool stuff for Galactic Heroes and other miniatures but I really like his Tatooine textures and paint apps. http://www.ironhands.com/mos.htm

This looks great! 

It's been my dream to re-create Mos Eisley, and specifically the Cantina like this...
This looks really great!
Again, thanks for sharing and PLEASE hit us with more pictures whenever you can!

Hey Psyclone, if you could be so kind to post what figures you were planning to put in the cantina then we could all try to fill in the gaps. Also, I'm pretty sure the old Power of the Force line had some cantina packs that had two or more figures in each one. Maybe Tamer has some. I think he's got a nice POTF collection he was trying to unload. I know that bartender guy is kind of rare. I think it would be cool if we all banded together to make this dio as good as it can be. SPREAD THE WORD EVERYBODY! Thank you.

I will put that list of figs I have together and post it tomorrow night along with a list of figures I'm looking to buy if anyone has any to spare.  Again, if anyone just has spare bodies or body parts that you want to unload I might be able to cobble some aliens together to help populate it.  Or, if you have some full customs that were just taking up space and you want to donate, that's cool too.

I've begun work on the cantina furniture.   After fooling around with a few different ways of creating the chairs I think I've settled on balsa wood and sheet styrene.  No matter what, it's going to be a difficult and monotonous task making all the chairs I need but this went the fastest and I liked the results best.  I still have some problems with it but it will do, I think.  Anyway, here it is...
