Recon, The Hangarbay is most impressed with the Battle Platform, the metal sheet effect and the painting is excellent. Looking forward to seeing more WIP's on that one.

as requested,   I threw it together,  as you can tell many pieces have not been modified yet, but this is the layout of what it will be to some extant,   only the first few coats of paint are on and some have not even been primed yet but it's enough to let you get the general direction it will be going.

Recon, that is looking amazing!

Onl thing I would do different is I'd remove the bg "H" off the landing pad, apart from that the whole thing looks very exciting. Can't wait to see more.

That will definatly be gone as well as anyother stickers left on certain parts,  I am mainly just working on the platform at the moment.

Finished up a small part of the landing platform today and thought I would share a quick pic,  I added some small lights to the perimiter of the platform,  a couple have loose wires it seems but all do light up as they should, I just need to glue the wires in place.

I remember wanting this as a kid real bad... but only ever got about half of it at a yardsale in real bad shape in the late 80's...
Havent seen one in years, and want one just as bad now as I did then.
This is looking great so far.

Wow, those lights kick it up a notch, if that is possible. This is gonna be another one of those killer pieces when done. Man, I keep thinking of the Hasbro Dio contest and think how many things I see here that are so much better than thier top five choices.

TY guys, a few more WIP pics,  it's comming together so soon I will work on the rest of the dio, it will eventually have some fencing around the perimeter of the dio footprint, some more light effects and whatever else pops into mind,  my goal is an FOB or outpost for Clan Skirata for eventually what I hope will be a short story by yours truly.

Wayne, the color/weathering effect on that diamond plate flooring is spot on.  Keep going, buddy. I can't wait to see more.
