Trash Compactor in Death Star, the left hand wall moves, the chute can be seen in the first pic and third and is usually located under the cell bunk! :)

Really digging the design of your dioramas. I tried a similar Death Star in that shape, didn't turn out so well. I think I shall follow your example. :D
The exploits of my life are less canonical than they are legendary.

I love what you are creating here, I love the retro look, it reminds me of the fun I had playing with Star Wars figures as a kid.

Thanks Guys!  ;D
Before I started making these I found a link:

http://www.erikstormtrooper.com/palitoy.zip

Which allowed me to download pics of all the sections of the original Palitoy Death Star and print them off. This I did although only in A4 size, as my printers only little, but then I was able to cut them out, stick them on card and make a small version of the Death Star!
It was Ok for miniatures, but no good for 3/3/4 " scale, but it was a great teaching aid on which to build!
Give it a try! :)

Today I bought the materials for the Star Destroyer Playset / Diorama!  ;D
Its going to be made mainly of MDF and will be about 5 foot x 2 x2.
I would have preferred a bit bigger, but I just dont have the room! :(
It will have 4 levels each about 5 inches tall, the main deck, the secondary deck, a lift shaft and the control room.
Ive also ordered some xmas LED lights, so it will be lit to.
Now all I need is some holiday to get on with it!  0/
