The scratch-built barge, and the trading scenario both look really great!

Thanks for sharing your pics.

It appears that at least some of the round containers on the landing pad are contact lens cases.

However, I'd like to know a bit more about the other containers, since I could use some of them as well.

Are some just cubes with printed paper designs glued to their outer surfaces?

Who makes the other cargo containers, and/or are there any other inexpensive ones from other manufacturers that would be useful too?

hmmm well. the tiny round containers are: topnots of Milk briks, ( i could'nt get Lens cases!!!) the little crates are from Antenocities workshop  i think they are leaving the 28mm scale and pointing on 15mm, but if you look for small crates they'll do the job! . finally, The containers are simple cardboard boxes, covered with rugged cardboard, done by my friend Criamon.

Thx for your kind words!
Regards!

"-....the system Lando?-"
"-Lando is not a system, it's a name, Lando Carlissian. He's a card player, gambler, scoundrel. You'd like him.-"

ok next step: i need to make four 60x60 boards. looking for some urban looking. the idea is to provide some platforms/terraces as basement for the towers and "skyscrappers" below the platforms i'd like to use all the Lasercut sprues in order to give an intincratenetwork of tubes / connections/ or what ever, plus all the bits and greeblies i can collect!

well, there is a "mini Mansion" pack from WARMILL, and a couple of additional corridors. quiite expensive but one of the finest designs i've found.  His designs will allow me to use it as a Bespin corridor themed board, or some hidden asteroid rebel base, or perhaps a imperial research compound.
Plus, the industrial buildings are from Wargame Model Mods. cheaper and not bad at all at design. i realized they'd do the job.
Additionally, all towers are scratched  with diverse materials,- from tobacco pots to kitchen robot pieces ;)
a broken Crane toy it's been really usefull for additional corridors.

Is it wrong for me to be insanely jealous of someone's wonderful Star Wars terrain? If it is I have to apologize. This is absolutely fan-freaking-tastic!!! I can absolutely see Bespin.
