Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked them. With so few creatures on that planet, I'm sure glad they didn't escalate.

Pretty cool. Knowing your affinity for the Empire, it doesn’t surprise me to see them being decent and having a peaceful camaraderie with what most consider “bad guys” — at least until the Mandalorian show gave us a different perspective.

Glad you liked it. Well, as has been established, the Tusken Raiders are just misunderstood. Or, more likely, as with any group, there are exceptional individuals. As for the Imperials, you know the usual thing is just Rebel propaganda.

Totally random question, but where did you get that sand backdrop? Or did you print it out yourself?

I think it is an image I found on the internet and had it printed out on matte-poly paper (to have less glare). Ideally, there should be more space at the bottom so you can have your figures tread over that, but there either wasn't or I had cropped it away. So in the last photos I'm using some sand sheets for model builders.

If you like it, I can try to find the digital file and send it to you.

Oh, that would be great, thank you!

Haven't found it yet, but will let you know as soon as I do.

Great Scene and Troopers. Funny little story. . They looks like very good with the weathering. Where´s the Droids ! Scene ?

Thank you very much, Ephiane, and nice to see you back. Glad you liked them.
For a proper Droids Scene, we'd need a whole speeder. I think someone (Jazz Inc?) might have made one in this scale, but I'm not buying it.

Na, just this one not the force scene of obi wan.

That one is more doable. I think there are some trash can lids that look a little like that thing by the stormtrooper in the distance.

I have finally located the image file I used. It prints (unless resized) as 37.55 x 21 in (95.38 x 53.34 cm). Does this work for you?

That should be alright, thanks so much!

No problem, just sent it by e-mail due to size. Hope it works for you.

Just received it, many thanks for taking the time to do that.
