Those look very nice DR!  Smooth, simple, and elegant.  They look fairly large as well, where do you have such room for all of these?

Thank you.  :)

I'm lucky, I've got a room especially for dioramas ;)

DS dio dimensiosn are +/- 2 meters long, 90 cm large, and actually 150 cm height.

Wow, what sweet scenes! I like!

I really like how you have integrated those ties with the whole shuttle scene. It really looks classy. I am also loving the lighting you are using with your other scenes. I really like the custom backgrounds too.

Very nice work there, DR!! I too like the shuttle scene quite a bit. In the multi level DS interior dio, what are you using for lighting?

For Briefing room and Detention Block I use multiple leds with a 12V power supply.
Same thing for light tubes on Falcon Bay.
For background of Hallway, a simple 40w bubble on back and 2 leds.

I have add an neon tube on Lambda Shuttle level.

As you can see, I've added Tie Bomber above the shutlle. Picture take without any other lightning than dioramas's lights, no flash used.

Just started to add the elevator in Falcon Bay (important, ask some troopers onboard...)
