Two Lost Droids Diorama

Look what I found in the garage! Couldn't help doing another scene with the DS hallways. There's a couple of custom droids thrown in the mix. :)

Cool, I especially like the R5 unit and the DS Trooper playing tag. :D

Nice job on the walls, good thing they didn't have R4-M9 there otherwise he could've snitched that they were on the Rebel ship. :eek:

Very NICE!

Yes, how did you make those walls, or is it an ancient Chinese secret?

Thanks for the compliments! :cool:

Zen showed me the way to make those walls! ;)

The whole structure was made with foam core but the main reason why those walls look different is the lighting coming through. Much more work than a pic just pasted on the foam core but the effect shines through! :D

I'm also waiting to see you finish what you started! ;)

Is the floor just foam core painted black, or something else? It has a nice, highly polished sheen to it.

I see a foam core and I want to paint it bla-ack!

sorry, couldn't resist! :)

Actually though I was wondering if it was paper glued over the foam core but painting it and then cutting out the lil' Mike n Ike shapes makes way more sense!

The base is foam core but on top of it is a sticky vinyl tile (square foot each in size) which you can get from hardware stores.

I might have to try that trick myself!
