the lights do bring it to an entire new level, especially when reflected off Darth Vaders toy helmet , just like in the movie indeed :) Thanks for the kind words Sunset. Frank.
Sorry i mist Frank but wow its looking so good love the straws that was a great use of a very comen item. Cant wait tell the next one great presintaition my Friend!!!
Hey Noah, it was combo of 2 things, paint was too diluted with water and 2 wasn't sticking to the plastic, would have taken 3-4 coats to hide the straw stripes pattern, had I used paper straws, the paint may have worked better. You can still use paint, it does work but way more a hastle than rolling on a decal skin like I ended up chosing. Frank.
Well I’m all in as I start building my imperial scene. It’s going to be a two layer combo with the throne room on top and a corridor on the bottle for stormtroopers…and I’m going to put a blast door between the shelf units that goes into the leadership meeting room at the round table one over and then put the sith throne on top of the meeting room.
OMG it looks just like the real thing with those LED lights turned on! What an amazing work, Frank. Can't wait for the trash compactor. Thank you!

Thanks Justin, sometimes the most simple items work the best for the every level creators :) Frank.
Looking awesome. Since you would like the wall panel with the door you can install some small magnetics
I have seen others do this. That is a very good idea Paul. I should give it a try. Frank.
You can't win Darth.... If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
What didn’t work in painting the straws? Could they be sprayed?
