Here's some more pics of the Cobra Temple if anyone is interested.

Always interested. That rocks. And actually looks like a set-up that would sell at retail.

I like the fact you can bust right in and bust a cap in CC without to much trouble looking for him ;)

You might want to think about reinforcing the bottom floor. See how it is sinking done in the middle. That is only going to get worse over time. Cutting two dowel rods to shape and painting them shouldn't be two much trouble and should support the weight fine. Plus they will leave that floor with open space like you intended.

Yeah, I wanted space for the troops to line up for speeches and what-not. Luckily nothing is glued down. Everything can be rearranged whenever. I might end up having CC's throne and Mindbender's lab switch places.

As far as the drooping middle floor, it was actually warped from painting. I just used a can of paint I had instead of buying multiple cans of spray paint. I still wanted to put some sort of support down there but wasn't sure what to do. Thanks for the dowel rod idea. I can make those look like pillars and they shouldn't get in the way too much.

Nice, especially the inside, could use some armaments around the outside.

Exactly what Pluv said. Reinforce the bottom. I really like what you've done with the conosles and chairs. I'd be interested to see your recipe. Also, just a suggestion, the SW Bacta Tank would look really cool in the corner of your Dr.M's lab.

how come hitnrun got the bench/bed, should flint pull rank?

LOL

I love your mix of all figures types in there, cool.

Yeah, reinforce it, consider painting some of the stuff to match, your comms room looks sweet because it all matches up to the walls, :)

I agree. It could use some Asp gun emplacements, some red or blue MSS missile, or some Pac Rat Missile or gun sets.

Very cool! I agree that you need some firepower on the outside. I've been wanting to do something like this for kiddo, and I like your ideas!
