Jabba's Palace Diorama Shelf Display

LAST UPDATED 12/6/10

Since 1998 I used the craptacular POTF2 3D Cardboard diorama display of Jabba's Palace to house the fat space slug and all of his Muppety entourage. After 12 years I was ready to move on and wanted something more detailed and truly three dimensional. I decided to take a stab at my first custom diorama and truly create a superior shelf display for the almighty Jabba (and my collection). My intention was not to create a 100% accurate floor plan model as that would not fit on my shelf. The model i wanted to create is a truncated version with as many accurate details as possible. In 2010 Hasbro rolled out a lot of great characters including a new Jabba, Throne, Gammorreon Guard and others aliens that really helped motivate me to create and continue to perfect this display. I still have a lot to finish but I will update this page more often as I finish the display. Before we begin I just want to note the following of what left to complete:

- LED Lights throughout the entire display including a light up spit! This will make the display come alive!
- More paint details throughout the entire display. (More grime and wall color behind/in front the spit.)
- More decoration details. (Chimes, Tables and Decor)


Here is the current state of the diorama display followed by the work in progress. LMK if you have any questions. WORD UP!!!
