Another model... this time from Return of the Jedi! Again, this was a lot of fun to draw out on the computer and build with sticky paper and 5mm black foamboard - Enjoy!
I wanted to add a range of details on this one, including the Sarlacc Pit and a separate Desert Skiff.

On the top deck is Jabba's Sail Barge canon! Great fun with it's firing rockets. My son falls about laughing when we set it off.
nice! could you show how to make it? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Haven. I start with a rough idea and then draw it out on the computer. I've been working with graphics software for many years. The designs are then printed and mounted on 5mm foam board. This is then cut to size, with 'scissor' slots to join together. Please come back to me if you want to know more. Best regards.
ReplyDeleteyes i'd love to know more! thank you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks again Haven. I'll be moving house soon, but following that my plan is to get my printer sorted out. I'll take some more pictures and post up a "how to" blog entry, showing the artwork on the computer to finished playset.
ReplyDeleteokay Mark thank you! i appreciate it :)
ReplyDeleteis your printer sorted out?
ReplyDeletethese are cool would be nice to get scans to make your death star as looks better than the original cardboard one
ReplyDeleteHi thanks for the comment. It's a been a long time since I posted here. Family, life and work has taken up a lot of my time. If you do a quick google search for Frank's Diorama Workshop, you'll find the source files from which I built my Deathstar. Hope that helps.
