Vintage Kenner Dagobah repaint. And before anyone mentions it, yes I realize Luke's arms are on backwards in the pic of Luke doing a handstand.

Repainted GIJOE Whirlwind & FLAK to look more Star Wars-esque.

Awesome stuff, man. I really like the joe gun repaints and that reworked joe base.
What did you make the modular cantina walls from?

Very nice, It's always nice to see someone else re-doing some vintage items.

Very nice work here. I love the modular Cantina walls. That is a great alternative if you can't make the whole thing and quite convenient to display or take photos then put away. I love the changes you made to the Joe base as well. It fits in well with the imperials.

What did you make the modular cantina walls from?
The modular Cantina exterior wall (the arches) were made from 3/4" styrene foam insulation board (think "pink board" or "blue board"). The actual alcoves were made from foam board available from Wal-Mart. I used drywall mud for the texture on the walls. I put three coats of texture on the walls. With the second coat of mud, I used a sponge to give it the "adobe" look. Then I painted it with a beige interior house paint. After that I gave it a wash in thinned out brown to bring out some of the details.
I had built a modular style Cantina years ago as a display on 1x12 shelves. I plan on making the other side of the Cantina (2 alcoves) and a fake back wall. With a modular design its easier for taking pictures, and storage!!
