This is it - the grand finale of the Star Wars In The Snow Series. The photographs in this Part 3 blog entry were taken on January 24 of this year. In the following pictures, you will see the Rebel Bunker/Hangar with Pilots, X-Wings Fighters, a Y-Wing Fighter, a Rebel Armored Snowspeeder, a Troop Transport, Tauntauns, Soldiers, Commanders, 2-1B, FX-7, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO, a Vehicle Maintenance Energizer and the mighty Millennium Falcon ... mighty and discolored.
I thought that I would include an encore with the Hoth Stormtroopers and the Tripod Laser Cannon. It was getting dark by the end of the Hangar shots and it was dark by the time that I captured these shots. I wanted to get them in the light ... well, there is always the next snowstorm for that. By the way, the middle Snowtrooper does not look as yellowed in person as it looks in the pics.
Update (January 30, 2016): I finally put together a video version of the photoshoot:

It is January 27, 2016, and I am continuing with the Hoth recreations that I set up in the snow. All of the photographs in this Part 2 blog entry were taken on January 24. You will see Han Solo and Chewbacca going at it with the Probot, Luke Skywalker scaling an AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) and the big battle with two AT-AT's, two AT-ST's (All Terrain Scout Transports), Hoth Stormtroopers (aka Snowtroopers) and a Tripod Laser Cannon versus Rebel Soldiers, Rebel Commanders, a Radar Laser Cannon and a Turret. As you may have seen in my 2003 photos, I had two Turrets. Who knows what happened to that other one. You can see the sun passed over that plot of snow where the battle was set up. There are advantages and disadvantages to that. In any event, I think the shots are great. I particularly like how the images of the Rebels' turned out. Now for the pictures ...
Here is a screenshot from the video footage that I recorded:
You can see that I'm lovin it! See you all for the final part tomorrow ...
