Right, after the ceremonial burning of the Palpatines Throne on my fire I had a re-think. The first one was a pile of pants, too big, wrong shape. I just did not like it.
Anyway I am having another bash. So no plans, just building it on the fly, and this MKII is better, not perfect, but better. It is nice to have a break from the other stuff but I am itching to get back on with the x-wing. But I do not want to abandon this, just because I am finding it a little tricky.

Looks good. Thoses curves and angles are a trip. I'm still trying to fix mine without starting all over. But I think I'm going to have to.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Cheers Lopie, thanks for the pics by the way, they really helped.

I think after this is over I'm going to customize the speeder bike. I hope SS comes out with a biker scout. Hasbro's looks like he has a diaper on.

I hope Sideshow does one as well. And a bike, too.

You're off to another good start.

HEre are the pics of one I was working on. It seems like a simple project but the the curves mixed with angles are hard to get right.

I guess you couldn't tell by the unrefined look that is was far from finished

Underneath the basic frame was built from balsa and bass wood. Then I applied layers of Apoxie sculpt and super Sculpy to built up the surface. A heavy dose of sanding as well to fill in surface inperfections. You can actually see on some parts where I filled in spots that still need sanding.

Thanks. I pretty much abandoned it because of proportions being off.

Oww tell me about it, its such a difficult thing to build. My first one went on the fire. The angles and curves are so hard, but thats the fun of it. I think the top bit is gonna be even harder.....
