I mainly do murals for a living and I don't get to do Star Wars themes very often. So I was thrilled when a customer requested one of my favorite scenes for her sons room. The Empire Strikes back Hoth Battle scene.
I could have spend triple the time on this thing with details, but I had to refrain from getting carried away and blow the budget. I still gave a more than I estimated, but it was well worth it.
The big AT-AT is 6 feet tall.

What a lucky Kid! That looks great - and you've got mad skills. I wonder what it would look like if she let you "go to town" on it...

Beautiful work! :thumbsup:

It makes me wonder what the room looks like after they put furniture in it, tho.

Thanks guys for the kind comments, it was a lot of fun doing this one.


If you tell me this kid has a snow speeder bed too I'm going to be sick.
Too cool dude. That is an awesome mural.

Oooooh, snowspeeder bed, there's and idea I can pitch to the customer!!!!
.....then I have to make an AT-AT foot ceiling fan over it.

NICE job man! The AT AT likeness is beautiful. The proportions look spot on.

I was discussing my future plans for my dedicated home theatre room (in 2075) with Nikki while we were looking at this thread. She said we should get you to paint the underside of the Star Destoyer covering the whole ceiling, just like the famous opening scene in ANH....:)
