This is the "Grayskull" of the DCUC. A Hall of Justice diorama is just so cool. Yours looks as though it would kick the crap out of anything a toy company would want to attempt.

Thanks Hector....here's hoping it turns out like it looks like it should; and not to mention in my so-called mind!

Based on the dimensions you gave, it's going to be HUGE, Savant. Looks great so far. Can't wait to see the finished HOJ. Is it going to be a 6" scaled-up version of the Kenner Hall Of Justice(especially since you said, "heli-pad landing site") or you own interpretation?

Thanks Wally!

I'm going to try and base it as close as possible (exterior at least; the interior will have more props) off of the Super Friends cartoon. That version had a heli-pad in the back of the roof.

I'm still pondering if I should make that crystalline structure in the reflective pool, but if I do and do it properly, the size of the Hall will shorten and I'd really not want to do that.

I'm also taking a crack at this to bide my time and wait for my old table the Batcave was built for so I can rebuild/improve upon that design. But that'll be a little while...

My custom Ubu, loosely based on B:TAS and B:TBATB

INGREDIENTS:
- WWE Big Show w/ action feature
- glued legs (where action feature gear is located)
- gave him a shave and deliberately kept the scars on his face
- sculpted the pants, shirt band buttons and arm bands
- earring is made from a small piece of clear twist tie
- shirt bands made of flattened, black twist tie
- painted (w/a darker skin tone) and sealed

Let me know your thoughts....
