Wow -- it's been a while since I updated here...

Alot of new items... I'll post a few pics here and go check my gallery at theJawa.com for more pics...

First up is my Endor display...



This was built to display my Vintage Ewok village and the modern bunker.  The structure is made from foamcore.  I photoshopped the background images using some Redwood pics from the Diorama/ Background thread here at JediDefender.  The ground was made using painted foam sheets.  I built a foundation for the bunker which includes some grill work and access hatches.  The small plants are all model railroad scenic supplies.

The two Endor trees not part of the Vintage set were repainted.  Eventually I plan to add a bridge between them for the Luke/Leia revelation scene.

Next up is the Darth Vader Jedi Starfighter...



A basic repaint of the ROTS Anakin Starfighter.  I masked off the grey parts -- repainted the rest with Black spraypaint.  After that dried, I dripped silver paint and then wiped it towards the rear of the ship to create the fligh damage.

The final complete project is my Rebellion Era Cargo Shuttle.



This was a Playmates Star Trek Shuttlecraft that I gutted.  The cockpit is made from a Vintage GI JOE Vamp chasis and the added winds are from a vintage X-wing fighter.  (I'm still waiting on X-wing cannons for the wings).  A droid socket was cut into the top and built up using styrene scraps.

Finally, here's a few teaser shots of my next big project... A WIP Clone Command Center.  I'm using the top of a Vintage GI JOE Terrodrome as the centerpiece of the project...




If you want to see more WIP pics of this you can either wait until I get the page coded or you can visit my threads at thejawa or FFurg  .

Have you checked this out yet?[/url]

Glassman,

I use the same materials you do, but I've always used a block mold for heads -- how are you getting the thin layer on your head molds?  Are you brushing it on?

It kind of reminds me of the shapeshifting Aliens in the 5th Element.

I actually get to particpate on a project with everyone here -- I've finished this in January, but my life has gotten so crazy, I never had a chance to post it, until now!  It's more of a display than a playset but I needed a single shelf design for my Clone Wars figures.  I had been trying to keep them all carded, but since Hasbro decided to include "new" sculpts in 3 packs, it ruined my display plans.






I wanted something that conveyed unique locations from the Clone Wars cartoon, but still created a unified look across the set.  This is one of my few projects using foamcore (I typically prefer wood) but given the printed images, it seemed like the best material.

I'm thining my collection... here's a couple of items up for sale...

Had a great trade with Jeff for parts for my next project.  I would definitely trade again.

Yes, well I like them, so I posted them.

I know what you mean. All I asked was for the thread to be pinned. It's not like I wanted to take over a section of his home page with a direct link to these auctions. Just a simple sticky.

All it means is that those of us who visit there should make sure this is always bumped to the top whenever it falls out of the first ten posts... a pain but what else can you do?
