Hi everyone, I want to apologize for the lack of updates these past 2 weeks, I had family vacationing at the house and that took most of my time, however I did manage to build a few things I can share with you today now that the guests have returned home and I can put full time efforts in my next builds in the upcoming months. .
You may know that the trilogy (Style A-B-C) of Basic Death Star Hallways is done so I can now tackle all the other rooms seen in the movie. My plan is to update ALL of the 2005 Star Wars Celebration Builders booth builds with NEW 2022 improved movie accurate Decals and Blueprints PLUS tackle all of the areas I never had time to make 2 decades ago. My biggest challenge is to have all of these rooms connect like LEGO so that whatever rooms you decide to build at home, can be placed together side by side and stacked to copy what I will be making for my own office room or create your own UNIQUE MEGA DEATH STAR diorama. To do this I found it was easier to start with creating 40% scale Maquettes, Like ILM did for the movie sets, this will help me know what fits where in a 3D space starting with the next build which will be the Vader / Kenobi Jedi Duel seen below. .
.
All of the decals you see in the Maquette version used the NEW 2022 movie accurate full size ones I just created and will post for FREE DOWNLOAD real soon. These Maquettes also allow me to watch the movie and see exactly where the skins need to be placed so I can match all of this full scale for the upcoming rooms. Below you can see what will become the 7 foot wide Docking Bay 327 scene. The Vader / Kenobi Jedi Duel will connect directly to the large blast door just like in the movie as well and all of the other rooms like the Conference Room, Red Room, Curved Hallways, Conference room to name a few. .

Thanks Steve for the kind words, and YES, the maquettes are made to scale for Legos and FFG role play scale figs 🙂 If there is demand, I may offer these as downloads as well as the 3.75 and 6″ scales. Frank.
