Great costumes, I always fancied a Stormtrooper costume myself but only went as far as a lifesize cardboard cutout.

Re: As time passes
Wow!!!!
Very impressed!!!
I have 2 young chaps (not normally interested in the discussions of CS - a tad too young), who will be absolutely rapt to see what youre making! Our home is living and breathing Star Wars at the moment!
I thought it might just be a phase, but Im guessing that you are roughly the height of my 2 little ewoks put together, so theres a fair chance were stuck with this for many years to come!
Eeeek!
Slowcoffee.

Re: As time passes
its more the cost cos the sheets are so thin and they must be laser cut as theres two layers of skins tomake R2 properly
heres where mines at currently hes a styrene droid awaiting me to get off my bum stop drinking coffee and finish him!

the two vertical squarish holes where vents are, would be a good place to put a coffee spout, and the 5 smaller slots are actually US quarter coin slots, so I could make him into a coin operated coffee machine.....
Damn you Andy! you got me thinking about doing this again!!!

Re: As time passes
Im just racking my memory here as we used to buy sheets of aluminium for our aircraft, I cant remember what a sheet was worth...but Id guess that youre right, Sullo and say that they are costly...but...
What about some old aircraft panels??

Re: As time passes
the only way Ive figured to do it in a way that works well is to destroy one of those auto type machines like hardly normal, mayne etc sell. Most of the construction of these is styrene plastic 3mm for most.
There are plans avail for a full aluminium r2 but the skins for his body are very costly and although Id really really really love a R2CaptogoD2 the pf type machines are still my fav,
trust me Ive tryed!
If anyones seriously interested in this I could take it further, I love weird and odd projects, I just got a free electric wheelchair that will become a return of the jedi speeder bike for either me or kids or both!

Re: As time passes
isnt that the truth, I went from being obsessive to "just give me coffee"!!! with a mad look in my eye
Maybe Vader shouldve said, "You dont now the power of the roasted side" orsomething like that...
Sadly now my TK just stands guard over my machine now
on a mannikin

Re: As time passes
Welcome back from the dark side, Sullo, good to hear from you. Yes, becoming obsessively perfect can be a pain, but only after you step back and realise it!!
