Yes, it'll come after the service corridor, either together with or close to the white Tantive Entry Hallway, somewhere around June or July
We're trying out LED lighting in the chair. Maybe more
Great Got it. #16 on the list

I had the same thought. Not sure if there would be enough space to lightbox the image?

I thought about that too, but the 2mm forex prints don't let any light through. So you'd have to use a transparent sticker or something. But how to get even light across the back of that and not wash out the backs. I don't think it's possible. I'm open to suggestions! Please keep size and price in mind!
Got it! You're #19! The support and trust on this forum is wonderful!

Great project! If I didn't already have a throne I'd be interested; as is I'm still a bit tempted to sell mine and get in on this

Thanks man! And there's also a budget version for those who already have a throne and want to keep theirs
Yeah I could see space being an issue with a light box, would be cool if anyone thinks of a solution.
For behind the window, personally I would prefer more if just stars like the movie, maybe a small distant space battle.

I'll make a calculation and if it's possible, maybe the deluxe or both will get two back grounds so people can chose.

The background is going to be something where it is impossible to please everyone. It probably wouldn't be too much trouble for people to order/print their own image if the default one didn't suit though. I'm guessing just having space and stars might cause the least amount of objections, as it fits the movie. It would of course be great if the stars lit up, but that probably falls into wish fulfillment due to budget and space constraints.
Nexus67 has an amazing thread in the customs forum where he made the throne room and he used glass fibres for the stars. https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/star-wars-custom-figures-and-dioramas/175791-death-star-throne-window.html
Can you share any of your ideas for the window Jazz? I'm not sure how much of it you're hoping to show as once the edges come into play they would need to protude.

The glass fibers would be awesome but in the budget category of even the deluxe below $300 it'd be impossible.
I am going to try several window designs. Maybe do some forced perspective. Again, I'm always open to input and suggestions! It'd have to be 39cm by 38 cm square no matter what I do
