I think he means that since the Dagobah kit is inaccurate it is an homage to the scene. It's still the scene though.

Oh if that's they case, yeh. I mean it still represents a scene. I mean be reasonable right? Don't like enter "The Siege of Osgiliath" and then have two Carebears staring down Wizard No Heart flying in space.

[SciFi Scene GB] ROTJ Endor Bunker Scout 'O' Group !

Ok I picked my Subject !!!

I'm going to do a Small Vignette ! Hopeful I haven't Bit more than I can Chew !

Obviously there are no Kits for that ! so.. I'll use Smooth On Resin !!! and plenty of OOmOO-30 RTV silicon....

I might throw in a Hovering Speeder bike in the foreground ! but I will concentrate on the 4 Scouts
I'll be using my New Helmet.... and I am working on a Proof of concept for a standing Scout !

Not easy ! but I have a whole year to get that on the Go !
See you all in September for some updates...

Ok' as everyone are making eveng teasers fore the upcomming let me introduce mine properly to, guys
Here we go with all the stuff I was talking about last time in this topic and finally managed to get
First is a FineMolds 1/48 Snowspeeder itself (dont think its necessary to say: FM are great as allways with their kits - really enjoing its look eveng unbuilt on the trees )))

And here is the most fun part: some materials for the diorama and small details

They include the following kits:
- 1/48 RAF Pilots and Ground Personnel by ICM
- 1/72 Aircraft Bleriot XI by Eastern Express
- 1/35 V-2 Engine and Transmission Set for a T-34 Tank by MSD
and finally a small set of two barrels and four canisters in 1/48 scale by MasSHTAB
Still searching for proper fiber-optics and maybe something to make a "walking-battery" gonk droid of.

Thinking of making some artworks of what I imagine it would be. If my painting skills don't mess everythin - you'll see them

 

[Junkie]

Very interesting combination of kits. I have no idea how you'd marry this together...very interesting.

Well, Scott, I really hope that all that marryage work will go as planned to ;D
What I think is excellent in SW dioramas (and all Star Wars props as a hole) is that as they were built from the things common in our world (lightsabers hilts from photo-flashes, little redisigned old weapons, I'm eveng using an old computer mouse holder similar to the one redisigned in a naboo engeneer's datapad in Ep1). So with some creative You can make every single weapon crate from WWII look extremely StarWars-ish =)
P.S.: Watching Your video of building a taken down AT-AT right now for the tip of making snow.

Hi all!

I think I might enter this if it's not to late...

I'm thinking a scene from "Return of the king - Lord of the Rings", as I love the films, the saga, miniatures and diorama making. Is that a valid entry?

It's not too late. Hasn't even started yet! And yes, Valid as long as it's a scene depicting a scene from the movie.

You can if you want. OR wait until the GB actually starts if you want it to be a surprise.
