Hi All,

Little progress on the diorama.

The base is made up of three Bandai Star Wars stands and has had a frame work of balsa wood added to it and the I used foamcore and plasti card ato build the rest of the base up.

I have also glued Fetts joints togther except the neck and head and I will start painting him and Han up in the next day or two.

Thanks Shawn, I have to redo the base over as I didn't seal the sides and when I was spraying it the paint ate the foam and made it week. I will redo it after xmas as I will put the Fett I have now on a single base as I know I'm getting another one for a xmas pressie.

Hi All,

I have added the cloth look to Fett by using tissue paper which I mix some water with PVA glue and then wipe it over the figure and then apply the tissue paper with small dabs until it adheres and then you can start molding it into the creases.

Hi All,

Fett is now complete and he was painted and weathered using Vallejo and Game Workshop paints.

The base is the base that comes with Fett and has a balsa wood frame around it and plasti card for the floor which was painted to give a simple Bespin style base to it.

I just noticed that the pics look grainy? I will do more pics tomorrow and see how they turn out, maybe it's time to get a new camera.


Ron
