Hi All,

Added more details to the turret and also gave it a undercoat before I start painting and weathering it.

I'm sure, this is going to be another masterpiece.
I can't wait to see the finished dio.

Hi All,

While paint is drying on the Hoth turret I decided to make a small Endor dio.

Recipe

Scout Troopers - are from the Star Wars Command Endor Attack figure set and are roughly 1/35th scale and were painted and weathered using Vallejo paints.

Base is a Bandai Snow speeder stand with balsa wood sides, I used a branch I found in the back yard and the moss on the tree is some model railway grass.

The dirt is a mix of spakfilla, dirt and a little bit of mulch and mixed together and while mixing I added a little water and some dark brown paint. Once the mix was done a just started spreading it over the base.

The small grass tufts and the thicker brush are from miniNatur, The ferns are from MIGS and the small tree's are from Woodland Scenics.

Hi All,

The dio is 80% complete I just need to weather the generator and then do the snow. The Generator was made using plastic sheet, plastic tube and 1/35th tank parts. The power cords are old pieces of an old aircon which I used the cord.

The Snowtrooper has had the joints glued and covered and I added tissue paper to the cloth area's of the uniform. I need to paint and weather the trooper and once the snow is done attach him
