Here is a way to make a huge project look easy ;)

That's me in Hyperdyne's Stay Puft costume. It's not as cool as it looks:

I think this Jawa took a wrong turn:

For those who don't know. This is a set from a deleted scene in Empire Strikes Back. The rebels corralled some wampas in this room and had a warning sign to alert the rebels to the danger. When the Imperials attack 3po tears the warning sign off, which is why he was lagging behind and Han said he would become a permanent resident. The snowtroopers go into the room and get attacked by the wampas.

That is one AMAZING SET! thanks for sharing the construction photos. One of my favorite things about the RPF is to see the behind the scenes documentary style cataloging.
 
Great job to all involved. :thumbsup
Where/what was this built for?

I'd love to get some pics of my ESB Vader standing in that mini set to emulate this shot.

Sort of like this. This is my ESB Vader photoshopped onto a background image. It would be really cool to shoot him on your mini set.
