This looks amazing!
Is the base gun the one from the old Kenner DS playset or is it totally new build?
How long did it take to build this?
Wonderful beautiful work!

Daigo-Bah!  How are you?  Great to see you again -- it's been a long time!  :)

Fantastic work on that gun.  You did such a fine job, those photos almost had me fooled into thinking that they were 1:1!  I have great admiration for people who can make fabulous-looking props like that, since I have never gotten the hang of it very well myself.

Again, great to see you and your work again -- hope to see more soon!

That is one of the best diorama's ever!! I think that you have exposed your talent.. I cannot wait to see more from you down the line. Very clean work, deserves some praise...

Daigo-bah,

Commented "over there" about how totally awesome this is. I think from now on this is the standard in Imperial walls for future dioramas. Truly a work of art.

holy fricken Sh** that embaresses anything that Hasbro would ever think about doing. Great Dio I love the attention to detail you put in the whole thing.

Daigo-bah, I've been following the WIPs of this.  I absolutely love the way this turned out.  Your skills are so impressive.  I can't think of a single thing to critique.  I love the detailing you've built out of the foamies.  I've pickes some of those up and I hope to do something half as good as you can do!

Ditto.

I MUST KNOW!

Simply amazing! The sheer work and detail that clearly went into this are nothing short of incredible! Could be a movie miniature, it looks so good...

Thanks again so much guys!  Here are just a couple more pics taken outside for better light, and with another DS Gunner in the scene:

Everytime I look at that, I get more impressed.  Did you cut all the white "lights" out of foamies too?

Thanks Brent- the lights are actually decals I made on photoshop.

 :o I don't know where to begin with the compliments, but that thing is amazing. I had plans to do a similar diorama, I hope mine turns out at least a quarter as good as yours. It really looks like a miniature movie set. Great job!

This really is a knockout.  Fantastic work!!  I always laugh when I see the DS Gunners sitting at the gun.  To me, it looks like they're milking it.
