1:1 Emperor Palpatine Throne - FINISHED (kinda)

Re: 1:1 Emperor Palpatine Throne under construction....

Throne? Will it a lift-up seat and plumbing too? A TP holder would be a nice touch too.

I Keed, I keed.

Nice job on the form, can't wait to see it with the round window in the background.

Very cool!

Want to bring it down to Florida for CV? Seriously! We were talking about a charity project, if LFL would let us do it, where people could get their photo taken sitting on the Emporer's lap for a few bucks. It would be hilarious, and I bet we'd have a long line for that!

I'm checking this thread, regularly, to see the WIP. Very interesting furniture construction.

Re: 1:1 Emperor Palpatine Throne under construction....

Currently myself and two other members of Garrison Carida and the 501st are building this chair in my workshop...

we have about 5 days worth of construction in so far, trying to get it ready for New Years day Mummers parade in Philly.

still making progress...

added a couple of photos from the top construction and more work on the base. Still need to skin the back and side-rear edges its gonna be tricky because of the two directions the curves make....

still shooting for body filler smoothing this weekend and hopefully paint by Sunday.

Re: 1:1 Emperor Palpatine Throne updated pics

Here's the best I could do for you on the arm.
The only other reference I know of that shows it is the cardboard standee.
You can see some of it, but it is not fantastic or anything.

Hope this helps.
