Finished my Mandalorian diorama called ‘This Is The Way’.
Started by posing and puttying/resculpting all the articulation points. Had to sculpt the lower half of Grogu’s coat since he was designed to sit in his pram. I used watered down glue to position Mando’s cape and Boba Fett’s pants. Also scratch built Boba Fett’s Gaffi stick. The rock was sculpted from aluminum foil and Durham’s Water Putty.
I used LED filaments for the jetpack and flamethrower lighting. Covered the jetpack exhaust with Poly-fil and sealed with watered down glue. Built up the flamethrower flame with liquid UV resin.
This is the way indeed. Very nice! I assume these are the Ban Dai kits? I like the way you hid the articulation points. Really eliminates the “toy” look.
Beautifully done, Rob!
The articulation points-I think that’s almost a regular bit of putting together figures like this. It reminds me of building Maschinen Krieger suits. The kits come with soft plastic joint pieces, but they look so much better with sculpted putty covers.
