NiubNiub's Making Of Dioramas - Death Star Falcon Docking Bay

You only need to slice where the pieces need to BEND in the CORNERS.

If you tried to bend un-sliced foamcore, we all know it would just crack and break.

This way it bends perfectly following the curve of the Neon Rectangle front.

Apply Hot Glue to the INSIDE of the curve while holing it down in place with your other hand.

Make sure the curved side pieces align FLUSH with the front wall (see where the yellow arrows point to)

Once the first strip is attached to the Neon Front, turn it around and attach the other strip in the exact same way you did the first.

With both end pieces secure, you can now measure and cut the center strip that will attach both together.

Once the strip is attached to the Neon Front, you need to add some extra scrap pieces for added strength.

Follow the red arrows to see how each piece overlaps the seams.

Here is a close up to help you better understand what I am trying to say.

Now take the OTHER Neon Wall you cut earlier.

This piece fits on top of the rounded dorners we just glued to the first Neon Wall piece.

You can see how the Green arrows point to the first Neon Wall and the Yellow Arrows point to the top Neon Wall layer.
