Great looking stuff Ron the probe droid is mind blowing. Your version of the vaporator is alot cleaner and sleeker looking than mine. Is it in scale or did you make it smaller? Because it looks small compared to what they are suppost to be, almost like a Hasbro product. Any 6" Mandos in the works?

Nice.  Love the OTC work.  The probe droid will be fantastic.  I thought you made everything from polystyrene, but you have a great eye for greebles too.

Youch Ron.  SIXTH surgery?  Good luck.
Will you be taking time off from customizing,  or will you be stuck at home recuperating and looking for sedentary activities ?

Cheers mate and I made it smaller so that I can get it to fit on my shelves, I do have a 6" Mando in the works but that will be on hold for another few weeks.

Thanks buddy.

Hi All,

After hearing rumours of an old hermet that had wizard like powers Vader heads to Tatooine to investigate this rumour as he belives that it might be a Jedi. After several days with no luck in finding this rumoured hermet he comes across a tribe of Tusken Raiders.

His hatered for Tusken Raiders for what they did to his mother leads Vader into a rage and he starts fighting the 100 plus Tuskens, the fight goes on for nearly 2 hours and Vader comes out of it the victor, he is alive but damaged.
 
RECIPE
       
Darth Vader - is from Hasbro's 6" Black Series line and he has had he's left forearm and lower leg cut off and then I added a forearm and lower leg of a NECA Terminator. The torn outfit was done using AVES Fixit sculpt as were the wounded flesh areas, I then superglued the joints and then used AVES to putty over the joints.

The battle to the uniform was done by using a model knife and the torn cape was done by using a model knife and a pair of scissors. Vader was painted and weathered using Vallejo and GW paints and pastel chalks.
 
Base - I picked up from a craft store and the rusted object is from a 1/72 Falcon kit and that was glued to the base and then I used a mixer of plaster of paris fine sand and PVA glue and covered the base and the I painted and weathered it using Vallejo and GW paints and pastel chalks.

Hi All,

Would anyone have or know where I can get the scale of the escape pod from ANH as I want to make a 6" diorama like the attached pic that I made a few years ago.

Cheers

Ron

Theres an illustrated book that has most of the vehicles drawn to show the inside of them many have a  character to help show the size compassion. I do believe the escape pod is in it? Pretty sure with a bit of digging you can find it on google or model sites?

Wookieepedia has good info. But I usually take the 1/18 scale dimensions convert them to 1/1 then convert that to 1/10.

Hi All,

Started this little old Gonk/Power Droid today, he will be part of the 6" Tatooine dio that I will be doing. He is made from plasti card, 1/35 tanks parts, Star Trek 1/2500 parts, Hasbro 1/6 Pit Droid parts, 1/20 SF3D parts and some string. I have given him a few coats of rust and now I just have to apply the original paint and chip weather it.
