Wow Ron, I didn't know these before! Thanks for posting them again! These look like 1/6 scale figures right? You made them look so realistic! My personal favorite is Count Doku!
I can't believe these are 9-12 years old already! Back then I wouldn't have been able to create awesome customs like these! I was in 5th-8th grade back then, but even until today I haven't tried to repaint faces, yet. Much resprect Ron!

Cool deal Ron. Time to shine some spotlight on these.

And thanks for posting them. I definitely want this place to be a repository of everyone's customs from when they first started till infinity.

I haven't told my daughter yet, but it is gonna be her job to keep this place going well into the future. Your work is one of the bright lights here Ron.

Thanks heaps mate and the first 6-7 posts are 1/6th scale I'll start putting the scale in on the next ones. I was shocked when I started going thru files and seeing how old they were and that means I'm getting old LOL.

Thanks again Shawn and I think I showed some of these when I first started on the yards back in 2009.

Thanks mate I think the Bandai scout would look like the Hasbro scuba scout I did but with better details and articulation.

Hi All,

As I have mentioned on a few occasions I started building military diorama's before I started doing custom SW, indy etc. I was going thru my old computer and found a heap of old 1/35th and 1/72nd diorama's I did so I thought that I would put them up for you all to see.

Sorry for the smaller pics as this was when I first started out taking pics and putting them on my old website.
