This thread's been a little slow lately, so I thought I'd throw a few pics up:
Indy and assistants setting up a jungle dig site:

Indy getting into some trouble with the natives:

This one is inspired by the movie "The Ruins."

Isn't that the top of the Akator Temple?

Yep, it's the Akator set. I just removed the statue/staircase that connects to it.

vf wing, I love that animation!
I'm constantly in awe of the dioramas and customs shown in this forum. I was searching the net for some time looking for a place like this, before I stumbled upon The Raven. I've been waiting eagerly for over a week for my account to be fully activated, and now I can finally express what a great place this!
Going back to your animation...
The German motorcyclist is one of the best additions Hasbro made to the line. But there is one thing that bugs me with him - he is armed with an MP38/MP40 machine-pistol, but on his belt he has rifle ammo pouches. I wondered whether the mistake was made in copying from the Last Crusade or whether it was a Hasbro decision to use smaller pouches that would enable him to bend more easily into a sitting position, but without sculpting a rifle for him.
It would be a simple custom to replace them with MP38 packs from the Raiders German soldier (and in the process put the rifle packs onto the Raiders soldier, thereby creating further variation). Or simply add a rifle from the Golden Compass Tartar soldier to the motorcyclist.
Another bug is the forage caps on the Russian soldiers - I don't recall seeing them wearing these in KOTCS. Looks like Hasbro wanted to differentiate them completely from the cap-wearing Dovchenko.
