Looks good so far!

I cant wait to see how those jets turn out...
How will they be attached, inside the legs then swing out? Or just a simple mount on the outside?

I'm just wondering how you intend to let it be opened? because you wont want to yank on the head....maybe you can do like that trashcan person, and maybe hinge the head onto the body, then have it on a rig with handles inside so you can take it apart?

I'm gonna mount them to the outside.

The legs arrived and are a real flimsy plastic, so now I'll also need to figure out how they're supposed to hold the weight of R2.

Wow! thats gonna look ALOT better than I thought!

[Xbrid]

legs look good.

[TheGreatSatan]

I'm painting the front still too. I hope I got all the right angles and at least the general color scheme.

[Whisp]

WOW

I like that. Excellent job. i always like mods that are inventive and such. Like i mentioned before definetly a mod to watch.

[Xato]

Thats lookin awesome dude. I can just hear Crimson yelling out "Kit-bash! Kit-bash!" right now. But like i said, its goin awesome.
You say the legs are flimsy... If they are hollow, maybe you could fill them with some kind of plastic or resin or whatever... I'm not to up on the technical terms. Can anyone elaborate on this?
