It's just one detail of many but I'm LOVING that fire hose, nice one!

Cheers moondrome! Heresy is fine when it comes with big compliments! Thanks voozet Cheers for the kind words Bertie!

Thanks for the compliment Pete! Cheers Monty Thank you John! Thanks Andy! Yeah was a bit of a faff at times, I just don't understand why they had the feet and lower leg as 1 piece, separate feet would make positioning him a lot easier Thanks Hoolio appreciate it Haha! Thanks Corsair, roger roger!

Thanks Andre!

Okay this guy is all done! Used some strong glue to get the support rod in plave and fixed him nice and solid. Heres a link to the final pic

This is my 1/6 Battle Droid with STAP, wanted to give him a more dynamic pose than the standard kit so I cut his ankles off and reworked most of the limb joints in order to give him more of a motorbike type lean. I'm really pleased with how he came out and getting the pose sorted and gluing him in place turned out not to be quite as fiddly as I thought, and I think it looks much better than the very static looking original. Heres a link to the WIP Thanks to everyone who followed along and commented, that always makes a build more fun and interesting!

Really loving the cockpit with the pilot in!

Nice! Can just imagine this guy screaming across the desert to Ride of the Valkyries!

Thanks kenliu, appreciate your compliment and happy to inspire

Oh cool it turned out great! Really like it

Fantastic work! I especially like how you've carved in the boot creases, some serious attention to detail

Thanks Andy! I've literally just glued it to the base and left it drying in the shed, so it is all done now! Probably won't get a chance to do the rfi photos till next week though

Really like this, makes me yearn for a 3d printer! All things mech really floats my boat Great job upgrading the gun, it looks way better, look forward to seeing more

Time for what will probably be the final update on this guy! I got the droid glued into place by his feet, and got the right arm in place as well. In order to do that I had to support his weight and the easiest way was to fix a bit of wire to the roof of the shed and loop it round his backpack.

So hopefully the next time you see this it will be done! Thanks for looking, more soon

Wow those are some damn fine looking propellers!
