thanks guys! but it looks as if I will never finish the at-st.I just dont have the time anymore,and if I do ever get back to it,I plan to rework alot of it.I made this thing about ten years ago and I was a begginer in the custom world back then and since have discovered better materials,that would work better than wood.one thig that really sucks is the articulation causes it to not stand on its own.if it was lighter then maybe it would.anyways,I hope to one day revisit this project,but as of now I dont think it will ever happen.
