Here are some pics of the lit up Endor platform not fished with it yet
-
Here is the total picture of the Death Star
and there is a picture of the Grizzly Tank can someone give me some hits on custom would be cool for it and it really shoots
-
Here is a video link to our diorama room which is the boys room and you will see the Endor Platform light up and the Death Star Diorama If you need any closer look at things. I will do a video or a picture of what you like to see.
-
Here is the link for the Construction Yard video take a peek
-
Jtrooper, those are the finest playsets I've ever seen, PERIOD!
You have added so many playable features I just love what you have done. The lighting is another amazing addition.
I do have on minor observaion, and it's not a nitpick, rather an idea for you to consider. On your death star you've got wide floor levels, why not buy some Polistyrene sheet and use epoxy resin to glue the panels on, you can then paint the panels to match the rest of the playset (I bought a pack of epoxy with fairly large bottles that have lasted me ages).
Your videos are great, your Boy's room is just amzing. Gosh, can you imagine having a room like that back in 77?
I also have to ask, what are you using as the frame structures on each corner of the Platform and as detailing around the Gantrys?
To me you are not a customiser but a Model/Toy maker, you should have your own catagory as you are really standing out from the crowd. Your contribution to the forums is amazing and so much appreciated, you are putting me to shame right now, but in the best possible way!
As a thank you I'm going to design you your own Banner to add to your furum profile...
-
There is no way I can keep this video off the front page. Wow, I really do want to be adopted?
-
Tamer, you wanted me to adopt you...I see, I'm not good enough for you anymore heh!
Now se what you've done JL....
-
Tamer, you wanted me to adopt you...I see, I'm not good enough for you anymore heh!
Now se what you've done JL....
I would love a bitter custody dispute with large bouts of guilt and then I could spend half my weekends here and there and get both of you to keep mass producing this stuff. Daggone what I wouldn't give to have half the creative ability I see outta you two and the other folks here.
-
Ok i'll just adopt you all then......lol ;)
-
Jules,
I wish I could spend some money on this and buy styren for the DS . I'm unemployed right now. I wish I could make more dioramas for everyone that way. But, I'm trying toshow Hasbro that you don't really need that expensive stuff for the 7 to adults that Foam core or other materials that are stronger can sustain the playset wanting from the consumer aspect.
Thank you for the comments.
-
JL, Private message sent....
-
Pulling up the vids now, but I gotta say WOW!! Those pics are great! Beautiful work on those playsets.
-
Those are some lucky children, Very cool playsets really don't sum it up. Even at my age I am envious I don't have that in my playroom.
-
Very impressive work on these dios. Also, I loved checkin out your Youtube video.
Thanks for sharing that.
-
Jtrooper, your home made playsets/dioramas are incredible. I want one of those in my room. If I had a set up like that, I could get lost for days in there. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
-
My boys are actually in there all day sometimes if not there they're in the back yard playing
-
I'm sure i would be if i was their age!..... ;D
-
Jules,
The main columns are made from 1/2" foam board and the roof and the floor of the gantrys ate 1/4 " foam board the cross on top of the gantry are going to be changed out with a concrete corner piece that looks the same way as the palsa wood pieces I cut out. It will look alot better and will be a little tougher for the kids to play with. I had to take one off to repair it. The funny thing is my boys are very carful with there stuff and certain kids are aloud to play in there room or they ell the kids what to play with.
-
Wow, it's made of Foamboard, I would never have known.
What are you using for the frame structures at each corner of the platform? I ask as I haven't been able to find anything like that when i made mine.
Cheers,
Jules
-
I'll Take a picture of it tomarrow for you. You can find it at Home Depot. It's the corner they place on a stucco corner of a home it made up of a hard plastic. But, its bendable and easy to cut.
-
Thank you Hangar bay for the Banner Now I'm official Shipyard material
-
That banner is my favourite, even if I say so myself...
-
I took some pic today you'll see them tomarrow and a video
-
Holy crap that banner is awesome!
-
Hey, Guys some of you what were the construction yards girder system was made of so I made some picture for you to see
First picture is the raw material
Second stage is cut off what you don't want
Third is the finished product
You can cut these to any length
-
Here is a video of the Diorama room at night the boys are a not sleeping yet. I sorry if the video is not so hot its a cheap digital camera.
If you need more light on it I could do this again later with a little help by a figure.
-
Here is another video sorry for the shaking of the video. What it show are decals that Jules (Hangarbay94) has given me to make my own Jedi Temple.
I placed the images in cadd a copied them a couple of time to make the floors and walls of the Temple. I'll be making a pdf of this to share so everyone could make a large decal of the floor. Thanks you Jules again for these.
-
Great stuff, Next time I hit Home Depot I will be grabbing some of the girder material, To me it's fun to snoop around the stores to see what kinds of odds and ends can be used in a new project.
-
DRYWALL EDGING, now I realise what it was...what a great solution.
I love your video. Your Death Star is the best use of Niub Niub's Decals I've ever seen.
Really great creations JT, you are "The Daddy".

-
JT, it's so good to see you...
Love everything you are doing! I kinda feel sorry for your wife, mine is a long suffering Star Wars Geeks wife and all the stuff you are doing is just like the stuff I do....My wife often comes down the stairs of a morning and I just hear "Oh my god, where's my lounge!"
You seem to be having a lot of fun, and I'm really enjoying following your exploits into the land of Toymaking.
Thanks for the videos as well.
-
I mounted the Jedi Temple today and I will be puttingit together this weekend and get some new pics to you guys in the forum. Thanks again Jules I'm going to make the door slide up and open at the temple and a secret way to get in the temple also.
-
I love the vids. Expect the new one to be on the fp in the near future. Love the pics too. Man, you should have entered one of your great ones in the Hasbro contest. Much better than thier top five choices in my opinion.
-
I really like the Sandpeople village diorama. I thought that was cool.
-
Hey, Guys here are some pic that I promise but, I just wanted to thank Jules (Hangarbay 94) for the decals and I modified them a little and will soon start a little short story like Hangarbay and some video. I will do a little video on the Jedi temple and see the secret access to the Temple.
Jtrooper Out
-
More pics of the Temple
-
Few more pics
-
very cool, the floor details are amazing, I really enjoy seeing your new projects
-
Very nice Jtrooper! I like that secret door.
-
Very cool!
Talk about play value.
-
That's awesome, Jtrooper! I enjoy seeing your projects take shape from concept to completion.
-
Holy cow JL, that is an amazing job. You have used the decals as a template and converted them to suit your own ideas, I am so impressed. I am interested in how you stcuk the decals to the foamcore!
My favourite detail has to be the door, the shiny decals make it look metal.
Really excellent playset, you certainly are showing Hasbro up with all of your superb work.
-
Love it. On the FP again! Jules your graphics just amaze me. I like all the doors in this JL.
-
Jules I used a fixative spray mount that I used for years in Presentation board for projects that I worked on and I have some here that are still fixed to the board from 5yrs ago. You really need about two people to afix the large decals on the board.
-
It is great to see that Frank is back at NuibNuib Universe. I glad he put the Red room dio together finally. What is funny is that I did it without the step by step the same way. by the way The Temple is not finished yet need to place some decals and make some special things for he JTS Team you will learn real soon who are the JTS and what they do for the Jedi's. Time and space will unfold on the site of the Jedi.
-
LARGE Scale. ;D
That's what I like to see..
Keep up the Great Work !! 8)
-
Hey guys,
Here are some pics of the Emporers throne room window. My next diorama is the throne room
-
Here are more pics
-
Daggone guy we are gonna have to see a tutorial about how you did that! Freaking awesome! I hope you took pics or did a vid!
-
That's sweet, very well done, What is it made from?
-
It's mad e up of formcore sheet of clear plastic and a decal that is mounted on the form board. I'll be making another one soon for the other side of the Throne room. I will put together a video or pictures of the process.

-
Holllly crap
:o
I don't even know what else to add that hasnt already been said up till now. Whoa.
-
Look for this to show up on the fp. I already have two good stories for tomorrow!
-
Very nice, Jtrooper! Yours is quite the creative hand iindeed. I can't wait to see this detail in place in one of your killer dioramas.
-
See his thumb in size comparison.
This thing isn't just very well done, it's also shabla huge!
-
Wow! This is looking good. Great execution on this Jay. Now go get on that video.
-
JTrooper,
Amazing pieceof work on the window my friend...you seem to be carving out a little niche for yourself here as the Diorama Master!
-
awesome!! can't wait to see this throne room when done!!
-
It's finally done the Jedi Temple siduation room here are some pics with it empty and then with figures and there is a surprise at the end

-
Holy crap Batman! That is amazing Jtrooper. I love all the details you have added and the tactical hologram projector, and the furniture. Man I can see Cad Bane sneaking down that mechanical area now.
-
It's funny, while I was looking at the images I was thinking what Sprywalker put so elloquently into words...You put the fun into making dioramas.
I really love the details as well, like I said before, you have taken the decal idea, taken it another step forward and made your mark on this forum.
Your kids have an awesome Dad!
-
That's amazing, I really don't know what else to say about it. From top to bottom it is superb in every detail, the layout, walls, furniture,
Awesome
-
WOW :o that is ONE Amazing diorama i would love to see WIP of all your furniture on how they where made..... awesome, fantastic and brilliant!!!!
-
Wow, jTrooper, you make this look effortless and pull it off stunningly. My hats of to your killer creations!
There are fun things happening at your house.
-
Wow, those dioramas are amazing! I want one of those Landing Platforums. Have you ever considered making some for fellow collectors?
-
DeathStarDroid
Yes, I would like to do that with my dio's . I'm still perfecting technigue in Dio build and better resources of materials.
-
Something is missing from that link, Jtrooper.
Your jedi temple made the front page, by the way.
-
Here is a video link of a Teaser saga that I'm going to be creating for all. Please give comments and suggestions: Iknow I need my own music so I have to get my keyboard out again. Oh, I know the grammar is bad please excuse . It will get better.
-

Jt,
You have really amazed me, that is a superb effort, movie photonovels is definately the way to go...
Suggestions:
Try not to use a flash, use lighting instead, you should find your images become more lifelike.
Grammer, mine is bloody aweful, but you my friend need someone to proof read your work (that's what I do) you'll find that the more you write the better your grammar gets, so keep on going.
Really, I over looked all of te above while watching the vid, because the sets and layouts were so beautiful....
You should post this in the Photonovel Forum you will be a most welcome adition to a small band of brothers!
-
JT, I've done you a quick movie maker tutorial...if you get onto skype I can talk you through stuff if need be..
Jules
-
Awesome work. Have you ever thought of doing a small Jedi Library Scene? I have tried in vain many times myself, I just don't have the attention to detail to make it turn out.
Keep up the great work.
-
hello Vader. Welcome to the shipyards!
-
Yes,
It's on the backburner right now due to the contest. I will be looking into the main hall of the Jedi Temple and the Library. But need the room wife will not let me have the Living room to store the Dio's need to find space in garage build shelfs and make them more breakdownable for the kids to play with.
-

-
JT,
It's been a while since I visited your corner of the Yard. You really are my hero, you are carrying the torch! that Hangarbay94 Diorama would get me divorced so hats off to you.
I really enjoy seeing your fantastic projects....and now trees! This can only mean one thing! another diorama so aweome it cannot be viewed by mortal eyes , I will need a mirror to relect the awesomeness. Direct viewage will merely result in my destruction.
Can't wait to see what you are up to!
-
HB94

-
as we say in the U.K. bleedin' awesome!
-
All I gotta say is that you must be an architect in real life. This is spot on and looks just like the CW show.
-
I am speechless, absolutely amazing model and exactly what I've been looking to do for myself. Your skills are improving with every new diorama. This is one hell of a great job.
You are living up to your reputation as the Master Toymaker once again.
AWESOME!
-
Wow buddy, that is awesome! Freakin' SWEET!
-
that dio looks amazing JT i would love to see what you used for the construction mate cant wait to see this completed with the floor!!
-
Very impressive hallway you're building up there. Looks great!
-
omg :o this is really awesome. Your dio is the best mate.
This looks like a lot of work. You should use it for a stop motion or something.
-
OMG!! Can't wait to see it finished. Wish i could get into dios!!
-
That looks awesome. ;D
-
Mate, your dios are off the richter! Can't wait to see what it looks like when it is done.

I don't know what you customs guys are trying to do to me this week. I just can't seem to keep my mouth from hanging open in awe of these things you guys are creating. Just awesome guy!
-
Jtrooper the best part of this all is you are building a dio that is part of one of my favorite Clone Wars episodes.
-
dude this is incredible, cant wait to see it finished
-
dude this is incredible, cant wait to see it finished
Same here.
-
Hey guys
Have you guys ever start a diorama that you wish you never started evertime I look at this ship I keep thinking of other things to add on and now that I have the bridge figured out . I now have to work backwards toward the rear of the ship conference room quarters for guys and girls medical bay and then I have the engine room and after that the cargo bay witch all the gear such as a tank a smaller ship and 2 amp suits and rolling death gun you'll see that in action soon.
-
cant wait dude, once this is all to together it is gonna look EPIC!
-
This thing sounds HUGE!!!
What you have shown so far looks great.
I dont think I would have enough room for a project of this size.
-
Here are some pics of the corridor of the Intrepid look at the cool reflection of the Clone trooper. the second picture is my new platform that I'm starting to build bigger and better. More lights too.
-
The bridge of the Intrepid is looking good I will make pics soon
-
that corridor looks incredible!
-
The corridor looks cool.
-
Awesome job on that corridor Jay. That reflection off the floor looks cool!
-
Oh wow, Jt your dioramas are amazing. You have taken the Foamcore route and are improveing on it. Those prints must be costing you a fortune!
I love the corridor, it's just what I've been needing to make for the photonovel so I'm probably going to steal your idea.
You really are the king of the diorama at the moment. I just hope your wife can put up with your ever growing collection.
-
dude, your dios are incredible! i wish i had them for myself!
-
Got the corridor shot on the front page, JTrooper. This is truly some magnificent work!
-
oh now those dio's look sexy!! your talent to use Styrofoam and labels is the best i have seen in along long ....wait..... i mean ever!!!!!
-
I don`t know wether I make something wrong but I can`t see the pictures?
-
I don`t know wether I make something wrong but I can`t see the pictures?
Welcome Republic. Can't see the pictures? There are quite a few pages in this thread so it might be you need to go to different pages. I am seeing the pics ok. Try that and let me know. I don't know why you wouldn't be able to see them.
Jtrooper, just outstanding. I don't know what to say. I have never seen anything like it. Bravo.
-
I looked to some topics from the diorama section and there are a lot of pics I can`t see.
I can not understand why that is.
Is at possible that someone can send me the corridor pic from Jtrooper so I can see it, too.
-
Fill out your profile witha email and I'll send you a picture of the Diorama or reply to me in a email on my profile
-
OK, I did
Thank you!
-
Hello republic. Welcome to the Shipyards!
-
Is anyone else having trouble seeing the pics? I hope that gets resolved Republic. This place is pic heavy and it isn't gonna be too much fun without being able to see the pics. Are you able to see the outside hosted ones? I am assuming at this point it is just the attachment pics.
-
Jules,
I am working as a contract designer for a engineeering firm they let me use there hp plotter for my dio's witch is so awesome the paper I bought along time ago when I worked with a company. The only thing I needed was the ink and the plotter. I can't wait untill Monday to produce my bridge floor and finish the DS diorama for th Falcon. I put the decals together to make one big decal and print. You seen the Platform decal I have about 2 weeks of contract work that plotter is going to be busy for a while on dio's decals
-
JT, can I buy some of this stuff from you?
-
Send me a picture or a decal I'll print it and send it back to you. It comes in a 36"" x100' roll. I was just looking at the roll how much do you need a 24x36 or something bigger. And do you have a big HP Plotter to run it. I'll give it to you some just tell me how much you need.
-
Here are more pictures of the Interpid and some Clone Wars figures
-
More pics
-
sweet! is this finished product or are you gonna make more corridors and rooms?
-
This will have 4 to six rooms and this only the first florr of the ship the bottom or the Cargo bay/ engine room still nedds to be done. Its only about 25% done
-
So many projects so little time Here are some decals for the Cargobay/engine room
-
Here are more projects these image will be what they will see out of the Bridge and there rooms. Also I need to finish the DS of the Falcon in the Boys room. And the last images is a project that my boys want. just sssssssooooooo mmmuuuccchhh do do
-
more pics
-
more projects
-
Just phenomenal Jtrooper. Outstanding. The detail on this is just head shaking. Thank you for sharing it with us. This will tide us all over till Toy Fair starts hitting.
-
JT, you truely are the Toymaster...
I am amazed at the things you are putting together...there has to be a touch of OCD at play here....
I've stopped making dioramas as I have run out of space, so I'm glad to see that you are continuing to make the things I'd love to build (but beter)
I am so looking forward to seeing this latest beast of a creation take form.
Awesome!
-
Yes, I'm a little OCD. I wish I started doing dioramas years ago and It's not that I have plenty of room is that I and the boys can break the dio's down to store. But this ship is going to put me over on room I stated a shelf in the garage for the finish product. And the Boys beds are bunked up so that gives us somm room to biuld on. I'm going to ask my wife for the loft area to desplay the dio's. So wish me luck
-
I REALLY like that print of the Cruisers engaged with the TF Ships :P I think that one is my favorite!
-
Here is a look at my brief globe
-
What an awesome globe! I really, really like it. Wow, that is great.
-
Nice, I like that ringed control area under it.
-
Amazing work all round and the globe is just a great idea wel ldone.
Ron
-
wow that brief globe is fantastic jtrooper
great job
10/10
-
Somehow I missed this until now. That globe is awesome! Now share with us what you used for it. Please :o
-
Go to Micheals / craft store and find the plastic balls to make ornaments out of they sell them separate and at different sizes. they come in 2 halfs so you can paint the inside like I did make sure you're able to see the figure on the other side not to think of paint on the inside I mixed water in the paint and then used paper towel to dray some of the paint inside.
-
Cool that is what I was wondering as I bought 2 of them 2 years ago to make gunship pods and never got them finished. Great job and also you can use stained glass paint and it dries transparent in whatever color you get. I can't wait to see all of this come together. Have you worked on the bridge anymore?
-
I've been working on the computer decals for the bridge in cadd and photoshop hopefully put somethings together this week end and next week
-
Here are some picture of other dio's I will be designing the near future
-
one more dio
-
you did great on the utapau one, and that mustafar looks good too!
-
wow awesome JT
I like the Utapau display.
-
Can't wait to see how these come together!
-
holy :-X that is the dogs boollloxx mate
-
Here are some pics of the Back of the bridge of the Intrepid
-
that looks freekin' awesome
-
Wow, that project has all sorts of areas to it. Great shots, Jtrooper!
-
That is so sweet! Awesome work Jtrooper!
-
that looks great dude!
-
That is amazing man. I can't wait to see this thing when it all is done.
-
great, really great diorama!!!
-
JT, I appoint you King of the Dioramas.....last one was just superb!!!
-
I can't believe it they took my idea of a stealth ship on the Clone Wars. Man that tics me off the Intrpid is a stealth ship just for getting thru blockcades and landing on planets. Mine was a proto type not ever used before the Planet of Cilas was a Mech planet there scientist were developing a Invisible ship for the separatist but the JTS found out when the project was almost completed and the JTS was ordered by the Jedi's to steal and kill all who were developing and steal the plans and the Intrepid for there use not for the Clones or the Republic it was mainly for the Jedi and the JTS to run mission that are fital for the Jedi order and only a few Jedi Master knew of such a ship ever existed.
-
J, Trooper, I can understand your frustration...how dare they take your idea!!! let us pick up our sandals and wave them angrily at the gates of Skywalker Ranch!!! ;)
-
Hahahahahahah,
HB
Thank you for your a confort words
-
Here is a dio I'm working on for Geonosis a secret room for droids
-
I sure wish I had those types of skills.
-
'epic' isnt even enough to describe. :o
-
really nice!
-
wow that looks great JT
brilliant dio. Can't wait to see it together with some droids.
-
JT, you are definately living up to your reputation as the "Toymaster", that dio is fantastic! Man I'd love to have a play date at your house!!!!

JT I love this. it is a great trash to treasure diorama. Like Jules sushi box dio. Way to recycle that styrofoam packing piece, it has some great lines and your color choices make the most of everything. The foam core box and added details really bring it all together. Can't wait to see some figures in here. Great job!
-
I just wanted to Thank you guys for the comments. They mean alot to me. I will be adding figs soon to this diorama, but there is a twist the setting will be place years after the battle of Geo and past the Luke era. This hopfully won't be too weird for you guys. But it will be existing for me and the boys to bring back Jedi's from the pass. i can't say anymore. But it's going to be cool.
-
That is a cool looking little dio. Your skills know no bounds.
-
New Dio is forming here is my Echo base dio not finished yet need to work on the control room next and the front hanger
-
Woow man this is looking so awesome i can´t wait till is finished, its gonna be amazing indeed!
-
Looking good so far!
-
Oh Man! tthat is really looking superb. I love Hoth dio's, they are my favourite subject, and you are doing a fantastic job JT!
-
whoo hoo, that is going to be great! I already can see Han and Leia arguing, the Snowspeeders, ....
-
Wow, expect to see this on the front page sometime this week.
It looks awesome. Is this just carved styrofoam? I am so envious.
I am not seeing visions of this coupled with Rodger's great new AT-AT Playset. It would just be over the top.
-
.... ahhhhhh that looks the nuts !
-
cant wait to see that dude
-
Oh man, now that is what I am talking about. I can't wait to see this one come to fruition.
-

Did you notice I made it Hoth Day? LOL, I do like that environment. I will go on record though as saying I hope winter is over in my area. I made a daggone snowman last night!
-
hehe - I saw that! But I gotta ask... I know Rhen Var is EU, but could you like Rhen Var almost as much as hoth? (snowfield on the Battlefront game)
-
Amazing, so amazing!
-
your dios are epic i love them
cmdrjet94

-
Very cool. The outpost is awesome. Is that a piece of styrofoam you painted?
-
Yes, From a fan that A friend purchase
-
Nice work and wow, way to really call someone out. You must have missed their Hoth special that features 2 amazing dioramas. Hit up you tube and check it out.
-
I agree L.E, what a great new diorama!
And JTrooper trust me the Kessel Run Review loves all things custom and I am sure they will like this too.
-
Really cool dios my man! Love to see all those arcs and walkers.
-
wooooooooaaaaa excelent dio well done
-
Thank you guys work very hard on them for my 2 boys they love Star Wars. Can't wait to get all my other dio's done need to finish my Hoth ant my ships and complete my Death Star. Also the Sleeping Quarters for the Dominos and there bunch of Cadets.
-
Awesome!!! :o :o :o ()rr
-
Nice dioramas JTrooper, but if you want to be on the show so bad just send me an email! I have had dioramas on Episode 18 http://www.youtube.com/user/wookielover1138?feature=mhum#p/a/u/1/qYCoqD3uUYU (http://www.youtube.com/user/wookielover1138?feature=mhum#p/a/u/1/qYCoqD3uUYU) and planned on having more in Season 3 ;D I'm sorry you feel left out, but at the end of every show I give my fans my email address and ask for their submissions for the KRR. Keep up the great work 0/
-
Need Help guys running a pole here should I go Geno or Hoth need a vote please reply by Friday 9/9/11. Here are the pics of this dio. I put a Fig in for size also.
-
I would paint it black then add grey leaving the black in all the cracks. Then add a few red lights behind the rocks, just a couple to give a red glow. Then let Anakin and Ventress battle it out in there!
-
not Hoth.......it's been done to death ;)

Great !! EL
-

I don't agree with that statement at all! ;D
Hoth all the way JTrooper!
-
JT, that is superb!!!
Whatever you do with it it will be wonderful...
-
I don't agree with that statement at all! ;D
Hoth all the way JTrooper!
+1 ;D
-
Very nice. I love working with foam.
-
Awesome dio´s man!
-
wow, this stuff is amazing.
-
True that Hoth has been overdone but I would almost want to go for a wampa cave with that setup.
-
True that Hoth has been overdone but I would almost want to go for a wampa cave with that setup.
I was thinking the same thing.
-
please please please no more Hoth. don't get me wrong i love the OT as much as one else, but i'd love to see something like that turned into something outside of the movies. some kind of enviro that we haven't seen done a dozen times before like Hoth. the base looks spectacular as it is, but with your skill at dio's it'd be nice to see it turned into something easy like snow. I'd go so far as to use is as a base/hideout inside of an asteroid or some cave on an obsolete planet. You could use it for rebels or even be more creative and use it for non droid-Seperatists base/hideout, if u had some kind of alien to use as an army that is. Whatever u do with it i'm sure it'll be great, and can't wait to see more.
-

I might be reading this wrong, but are you saying that doing snow dioramas are easy?
-
I wonder what he decided to do with this? I would love to see an update.
-
I agree, update please. Though now that I look at it, it could be made into a Republic Commando level. If you've played the game like I have then you'll know that when Delta Squad goes to destroy an underground jamming device. They encounter a Geonosian birthing chamber with eggs of Geos. It would be cool if someone attempted that.
-
Orangepease
Please send me a pic or a shot of the Old Republic game images so I could see colors
-
PM sent for 2 pics of what I'm talking about jtrooper.
-
Orangepeace
I saw the first pic but the second I can't see the eggs please send again
-
Here ya go.

That is beyond cool

Very nice work J! I would love to see some shots of it in better light with the flash off. That would get rid of the shiney look.
-
Man, that is one cool dio, jtrooper! Yeah, get some clearer shots and I will put it on the fp.

That is fantastic! Love the Delta Squad inclusion!

oh sh!t, hellsya. now that's what i'm freakin' talkin about right there. u r the man. love love love it. the only thing i'd add is some CW Geo's just cuz they can pass for newly hatched Geo's. but can't tell you how thrilled that u went EU for this instead of redoing Hoth.
-
Thanks for the Comments I 'm trying to make my own dio's in the EU and not just the movies and the TV shows
-
Nice work. Like a scene right out of the game.
-
My comments about this are on the front page. ;D
-
Wow! That's amazing dude. Really great work
-
OK Guys here it is give me a project that you would like to see as a diorama and I will do it. Give ideas if it's to add on something I already have please tell me. This will be fun and I will give update as I build it. It could be about a 24"x36" and 2' high. Also give me a picture or drawing.
Thank you
-
I would like to see something added to the Hoth base you started. You could either make an interior base to hold vehicles and troops or an exterior battle scene. Either way you can't loose! That wall/entrance is so cool and it needs something else to go with it.
-
Luke Sprywalker
Thank you to remind me I have the interior hanger almost done I get pics this weekend to you ASAP and I'm thinking of a Wompa Cave also to add
-
Here are some pics of theCorridor to the nesting cave from the surface of Geo.

Amazing dio man, really nice job!

Very cool!

Woah! Good to see you back to dios again Jtrooper. Love your Dathomir TOR Custom Jedi too before I forget. Look for one of these on our front page soon.
-

-
Wow awesome dio's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 ()rr
-
the first three pics is a Mustifar looking dio
LOL. Sorry Jtrooper, I am a bit Hoth biased and seeing it all white sure does take me there.
You do excellent work nontheless.
-
Here are some updates on the dio's I'm working on. Where my finger is were the lava will be
-
Wow, that looks amazing, can't wait to see it when it's finished!

-
Here is what my boys wanted Mos Eisley so you know me lets go big so I already have Hangar 94 now we need building and stuff so here is my fist out of many.
-
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL ;D. Great job...very inspirational :D
-
Very nice, back on the front page. I was wondering where you stores all your dioramas.
-
Looking good so far! Thanks for sharing the storage photos.
-
Awesome Mustafar Dio, also cant wait to see the cool Mos Eisley Dio done.
-
Same...i'm keen to see the Mos Eisley one in all it's scum and villiany glory ;D
-
I really enjoy your work. Gonna steal some of your ideas on the Tatooine buildings. Thanks for sharing.
-
Here is more pics on Mos Isley
-
more pics
-
Awesome Jtrooper. Time to get some of this back on the front page.
-
AWESOME.....Nice to see another Tatooine diorama. Believe me when i say that the more you work on it the more ideas you get....i thought weeks ago that i'd completed my initial design....WRONG :D. I'm now working on MASSIVE "crashed" engine similair to the Dowager Queen in Mos Eisley. THE MADNESS NEVER ENDS >:D
-
Great stsrt!
-
Here we go guys some more stuff from Mos Isley I finished my first 2 and starting a 3rd. I remembered just one thing were am I going to store these there big. And once you start a project you have to do it right . So please pry for me and hope my wife will not kick me out with these things my boys love it and my girls are getting into also. So here are some pics
-
more shots and also the hotel and gun shop
-
a few more pics
-
Awesome. These look perfect to me.
Back on the front page.
-
looks superb! its coming on very very nicely ,there are some great dios hitting the boards recently
-
Jtrooper, these are off the hook! You've got some lucky kids! I feel your pain on the storage issues, both spacial and spousal ;). Those are the two factors preventing me from doing anything of a similar scope. Keeping it modular like you're doing is definitely the way to go. If push comes to shove you can stash the modules in different parts of the house till the coast is clear! I've got some styrofoam and plaster lying around...might use your pics as a reference point for something of my own if you don't mind. Keep up the awesome work!
-
Really awesome work once again!
-
Are you putting a coat of "stucco" on these or just painted styrofoam?
-
I'm using styro and putty for drywaling and paint
-
I really love the intricacy of your building designs. Outstanding!
-
I'm using styro and putty for drywaling and paint
looks cool, can you post some close-ups?
-
Just finished putting up the building I showed you last and then the boys asked if the doors open so I had to revised my second floor area to have doors slide open.
-
saWEEEEET!! That stuff looks AWESOME!!
-
Here are the pics for the Last Big Biulding and Now it's time for the slave quarters It's going to be 4' wide and 2' to 3' high
-
One more
-
This is going to be a beast diorama it is looking fantastic. I really admire your work. :) :) :) :)
-
Wow, this is going to be sweet. Very nice JTrooper, back on the front page.
-
Man, really great work again!
-
Beautiful work! I really like everything about this. Excellent colors!
-
Looking very cool!
-
Now here in these pics is my slave quarters You can see the board on the bottom is 4' x2' and I going that wide on this one and 3 stories tall I have 2 so far but I will continue this project for a while by next week I should be done this is a build to design project instead of a design and then build. So here is the start of the project
-
I really like that you are doing the slave quarters. I have a feeling that it's gonna be awesome.
-
Here is the progress of the slave quarters
-
More pics
-
That's coming together beautifully!
So where do you acquire all of your materials? That looks like... foam board?
I've seen foam board at Michael's and a few local art stores, but it's generally pretty expensive stuff! Any tips you'd be willing to share on competitive deals? ;D
-
Home depot you get 4'x2' and it comes in a pack of 5 for about $7.50 for the pack you'll find it in the insolations part of Home Depot. Micheal's to expensive it like $8.00 for one 1'x3'
-
I'm done cutting tomarrow I'll start putting and cualking the dio. It's going to be heavy.
-

Groovy! Thanks for the tip! I should have figured it would be Home Depot. :P
-
JTrooper this whole series of buildings is just fabuloso! Back on the front page and I can't imagine the size of this if you arrange them into a full settlement. Just outstanding. Thank you for sharing them with us. Back on the fp.
We definitely need to get you on CAFN sometime to talk about your diorama building. You would be another excellent person to add to our Diorama Roundtable we are arranging with Spooky, R1bb1t, and Wardog.
-
Tamer
I would be honor to on and talk. I think we have the best of the best doing dioramas. What I just is more room .
-
This dio is coming along so beautifully. Your work with the stairs looks flawless. I will be following this closely.
-
Tamer
I would be honor to on and talk. I think we have the best of the best doing dioramas. What I just is more room .
Great! If you could pm me your skype contact info I can add you. Wonderful news, I will let Chad know we have another roundtabler. What a great group of folks to talk dioramas!
-
Holy Crap JT!
You just keep rolling these baby's out...every one is a playset of pure Star Wars envy! I'm looking forward to seeing this one come together.
-
Wow this is coming out fantastic. You really nailed the feel and look of the slave area. Nicely done.
-
Thank you guys on the comments I just finished putting and caulking this beast up now I have to get on my photoshop to get the doors done and wait a couple of days till this all drys
-
OK Guys here it is the Slave Quarter. Bad thing is I don't have any slaves. So lets make it the Biunty Hunter residences HA HA
-
One more pic
-
Nice, love it! ;D ;D
-
Wow, wow, wow. Yepper, this rocks like I thought it would.
Good talking with you the other day. Look for this on our fp soon.
Am I correct in thinking those curved pipe pieces on the grey module were the ones we were talking about? In any case, your fix looks brilliant.
-
jtrooper, this looks fantastic. I was always hesitant to try this, but you did it and it looks great. Pat yourself on the back, or have someone near you do it..... You deserve it!
-
wow the dio masters are seriously making their presence felt on the yards ...great job!
-
Wooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwww !!!
In french : je reste sur le cul... Superbe !
-
Thank you guys for the comments this one was a hard one now I'm working on a tower I just don't know how this going to look
-
Here is a pic of my Tower need to putty it up and clauk it. I put some figs in to size.
-
Any Ideas on the top spire on this tower will be greatly appreciative
-
I wish I could give you a suggestion, but your skill level is far beyond mine, so....
Love this tower, and I can't wait to see more!
-
This is looking great!
-
The Slave Quarters looks awesome! This new tower looks promising as well. As for ideas, hmmm, you could use some wooden skewers or plastic rod to make a few antenea in the top of the ball. Would also be cool to see some communications terminals at the top and bottom. You could add some machenery greeblies on the side if you have some bits that would work. Good luck and can't wait to see how this developes.
-
That is a killer diorama, JT. Excellent work, man, excellent. And that tower already looks amazing. Can't wait to see that one finished!
-
Wow. So cool. I don't think I can keep you or Barry off the front page this week. Nice work.
-
Really cool! Can't wait to see it finished.

I agree with Spry. Your work is awesome. What is the black stuff that Aurra is hiding behind?
-
It's a wall that is foam board now plastered and will look just like the rest of the dio's
-
The slave houses and the tower are super cool.
-
Ok Guys I was thinging about this Tower last night and I said to myself don't they fly ships into Mos Eisley and if this tower there should there be lights on this thing so ships will not crash into it at night so here it is the lighted Tower of Mos Eisley. And a second question came up should I do other buildings or the cantina HUMMM stay tune for more stuff next week.
-
2 more pics
-
Oh my JT, that is better than anything I suggested! Love the lights!
-
Here is a sneak peak on the next building for Mos Eisley
-
It looked good before, it looks even better now.
I would like to sit you and Barry in the same room with the same material and stage a new reality show: Diorama Wars!
Just awesome and back on the front page Sergio.
-
I truly love your work. Can't get enough of it. I am eager to see where you go with this next.
-
I would like to sit you and Barry in the same room with the same material and stage a new reality show: Diorama Wars!
Now THAT would be the bomb!! Talk about one insanely seriously BAD@$$ show to watch! I can see the side-by-side speeded-up segments as the participants raced to complete their projects...
-
Your creations are totally amazing ;D
-
That tower is awesome great job! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
great dioramas, very well made
-
Thank you all on the comments on my dio's here is a peak what I'm working on now. This is the inside wall and the top roof of the space port hangar.
-
One more side view pic
-
Very cool! I love the look of this docking bay.
-
Sergio I am sorry I couldn't touch base with you last evening. Oh well, we will just have to try again later as I would love to share some info on these great buildings you are making.
I bet you see your update on the fp before too long.
-
Awesome! I wanted to do a docking bay to feature my slave I custom but I ran out of shelf space. I'll live vicariously through your work. This is going to be great!
-
WOW......very cool. :D
-
very cool hanger design
-
Gooooooooddddddddddddd ! ;D
-
Hey it hot down here in Florida it's hard work in a hot garage. Here are some pic of progress on the Hangar
-
here are a few more
-
Dayum JT !!! - That's comin' along nicely - great design bro... 8) --- & I can sympathize w/ workin' in a hot workspace... my shop is also in my garage & it isn't climate controlled... ugh!!!
-
WOW.....that looks freaking sweeeeeeeeet :D
I can't wait to see the finished product.
-
This one looks pretty cool, looking forward to updates
-
Whoa, that window is awesome! How did you do that? It's difficult to work with foam at that level of detail. Looking really good.
-
I'm gunna hazard a guess and say that the window is either a plastic drain cap for a sink you can buy at hardware stores or some sort of vent used in plumbing....i could wrong (and probably are) ;D
-
The window is made from a styro lid from a styrofoam peanut cup from a deli near my home
-
Wow, looking good JTrooper. Time for an fp update.
-
The window is made from a styro lid from a styrofoam peanut cup from a deli near my home
WOW....i was waaaaaaaaaaay off :D
Lids are ALWAYS good for dios and i truely believe that companies that make lids for stuff must be SW dio builders themselves!!!!!........... ;D......................then again i've only had 1 coffee this morning and as a result i'm slightly delerious. ;D
-
My fan in the garage broke so I'm only going to work on projects in the mornings it's alot cooler in the mornings
-
Looks fantastic! It's nice to see a Tatooine-inspired dio set that isn't Docking Bay 94 or the cantina (though undeniably awesome)...a little variety goes a long way in my book. Looking forward to more updates on your progress!
-
WOW!!! This is looking SO Awesome, i look forward to seeing the finished Hangar. I hope you will add lots a lights to this.
-
My fan in the garage broke so I'm only going to work on projects in the mornings it's alot cooler in the mornings
Daggone we have got to get you a new fan or something. I can't wait to see how some of these turn out and then when you put them all together it is really going to blow my mind. When do you think you will start creating your entire town?
-
I have a couple of smaller buildings to put together still maybe in 2 weeks. I'm trying to finish this one by Thursday . Next week I'll be camping out in Northern Georgia with mhy BSA troop which my son is a trooper. I'm a Assistant BSA Master
-
Have fun on your trip. In the meantime, I'll be enjoying the pictures of these cool buildings. I love the cuts for the archways.
-
Sorry guys I wish i could give you a update the lighting is looking pretty cool. You guys are going to have to wait untill next Sunday.
-
JT, you really are mastering the art of creating excellent dioramas using foam...

You can't find one because it isn't out yet, but the rumor at RS is not till 2014, which sucks.

Nice, time to go get this news on the fp and our fb page.
-
Nice! I used to do this all the time when I was younger and had a lot of room in my parents' house. I used styro for all sorts of dioramas
-
jeez JT looks like i got some looking back to do apparently i've missed a lot of ur updates. that Slave1 hangar is freakin killer. do u have a tutorial on how u work with styrafoam? i got tons of it that i've saved over the years sitting in the rafters of my garage and just never got around to it yet. mostly cuz i'm not sure how to NOT make it look like i just painted over styrafoam. u using plaster is great for Tatooine.
-
Sweet styro chunks!!!
-
Great use of the styrofoam packaging this is going to be one hell of a dio.
Ron

I hear you. I only bought a couple six inch figures and the two Wal Mart Super Arty versions myself.

Cool can't wait to see them.

Here is a new photo on how to bring Earth to the Star Wars Galaxy. This is only a hint on what i'm working on. I was so happy when Halo went 3.75 figures. This opens many designs.
-
Yep, great figures and vehicles. Time to take this to the front pages.
-
Here are some pics for my latest project. not done yet trying to figure the paint scheme for this bldg. Have to make some columns and a Star Gate now.
-
Now that is a great looking diorama.
Off to the front pages.
-
That's pretty awesome (love the Grunts, too!). It's going to look excellent when painted and I can't wait to see the StarGate.
-
Really like the shape of this building! It looks cold as ice with these LEDs added! Very nice work here!
