THE GALACTIC SENATE

Took the backgrounds from the Hunt for Grevious pack and made a diorama out of it. I thought it turned out nicely. Here are the pics.

Here is the overall view of the completed diorama.


I created a floor for the figures to stand on. I used compressed foam board and a hot glue gun to create the scene.


Yoda in conference with his commanders.


Clone Pilot providing covering fire.


ARC Trooper de-planning!


It took me about 2-3 hours to complete this and the best part is I get to reposition the figures whenever I want to and I don't have to pay hundreds of dollars for the gunship.

Wow, awesome!

Great diorama!

Very fantastically done!!!

Very nice job, very convincing!

Woah, very nice set up! Lots of different clones. Nicely done!

oh btw...the yellow clone is holding a grey vibro-staff?

Thanks for the kind words. Amazing what you can do with cardboard and foam board. Hope more forum members will do some dioramas too.

i might do the same way you did....it's pretty neat...nicely cut. You used a penknife to slice the rounded regions? the cardboard's pretty thick...

It is actually the staft that comes with the Shadows of the Empire series Luke in Guard disguise. Thought it looked cool so passed it onto my clones to use.

I use the xacto hobby knife for cutting. As normal, do take very good care when using sharp instruments when cutting. Sometimes, one uses a lot of strength to cut through thick board and you could very easily cut yourself.

I used compressed foam board as it is more stable and does not warp with changes in humidity. Normal cardboard will absorb a certain amount of moisture in our damp environment.

Sorry but I don't have a picture of the knife. But if you go to Artfriend, you can find it there. I've had mine for almost 20 years now since my art school days.

Awesome workpiece, plus the shots are damn clear!
Execellent!

btw for the info CW gunship is turret-less. Where ya find the binoculars, from the duluxe clones?

The binos came from one of the federation droids. Not sure which one though.

kinda curious u really go cut and remove the blue lieutenant's belt for the kama?

nice one!!
