awesome mate i wanna come and play with it looks like so much fun ;D
-
Yep, you showed that one but not those pics, Jules. I love what you have dome to those sets.
-
Nicely done. Did you use an airbrush on them?
-
I had that playset as a kid, and have it again now. As much as I loved it before, it looks so much better now! I'm thinking I need to find another one to customize myself! Your lighting use makes it even better looking!
-
that looks amazing! Although it looks like rebels have infiltrated the "imperial outpost!" ;) lol.
-
Nicely done, Good use of the dagobah slime off the x-wing.
-
great job turning a bland white playset into a jungle funfest!!
awesome work again!
-
very nicely done, I have the same Imperial Outpost toy I have put mine in my hoth dio I am working on, but this is very sweet
-
Wow, this looks great. You ever consider doing anything Battle of Hothy Jules? ;D
-
Oh yes, I'd love to do a Hoth custom, in fact that was the first subject I wanted to do a dio about. BUT Hoth is possibly the hardest subject to work with, also it looks as though Hasbro have got their first, their latest playset looks pretty cool! Plus the Professor made the best Hoth dio I've ever seen, I couldn't possibly do better.
-
Great customizing the playset!!
-
lame!
Just kidding, thought I'd see how that went over, ;0
Looks great, man.
funny, first dio I wanted to do was mustafar, lol.

Awesome outpost
Hangerbay can you tell me how you did your lighting in the Endor platform send email
Thank you
-
Awesome rebel outpost is that styrofoam or a playset that came out
-
Jtrooper, firstly, thank you for checking out my work.
I created these sets to go with my Endor Platform as the kids wanted a rebel base to play with at the same time.
Hasbro or Kenner produced these sets quite a few years ago and I just put in low bits for a couple of old, incomplete sets on ebay. Both are the Hoth Playsets, there is one other I didn't buy which was the Probot Playset, which featured a better turret.
I put a LED in the turret and it's now used as a night light in the kids bedroom, my youngest is convinced that the troops protect him at night. 2AA batteries have lasted about 2 months.
To create these sets I used a spray stone effect paint to give the sides a more rocky look. I then spreayed them in a grey basecoat, then added layers of varying earthy and green colours. I used a picture of a rocky/mossy surface as a reference.
