February 2002 First thing tanguy did was draw up a plan of what the Cockpit should look like. But how big should it be to be in scale with the figures? XX
February 2002 Tanguy told me he used Legos to find the perfect scale for the console and placement of the figures. I think this is a cool way to get dimensions before cutting your foamcore. XX
February 2002 Here is a better view from the side showing how far apart each figure needs to be and the size of the Center Console. Long live Lego's :) XX
February 2002 From the Lego's dimensions, Tanguy calculated a 16 cm radius. XX
February 2002 A close up of the Top Cushion from one of the Cockpit Chairs make from Sculpey. XX
February 2002 More chairs side by side. XX
February 2002 This is the "Spinal Chord" support for the Chairs. Cut out from cardbord. They will be glued to the backs of the 2 Sculpey sections XX
February 2002 A close up of Han's Chair. Also made of Sculpey. It is a different style then the tall versions that are for the passengers. XX
February 2002 Making more copies can be tedious but look cool in the long run. XX
February 2002 Here is the Cockpit's Center Console. Made of Foamcore and assemble with a hot glue gun. Chewbacca and Han Solo's Chairs go on either side of this shape. XX
February 2002 Here is another angle of the Console. Shouldn't be too hard to copy. XX
February 2002 Some sculpted controls painted silver.
