I really… really… really need a room in my house, just for me. Lol

Yeah. I think disney put themselves into a corner deciding to make him want to be a crime lord... without actually realizing what theyd need to have him do, on a disney show, to be a crime lord lol. They had him more of trying to be the kindly old incompetent neighborhood do-gooder. Where they...

aaaaand I just went and ordered some liquid latex from Amazon because of you lol. Need to do some retouching on my right gauntlet. Artahka did a fantastic job painting my gaunts., but as was pointed out by someone in my WIP thread, there is a LOT more damage painted onto my right gaunt than the...

As long as the road runner doesn't make him run over a sand pit, Wiley's got this one in the bag

omg I want that little jawa prop lol. Where did you get that thing?

Question for'ya that I hadn't thought of before, for once you ARE approved. Ok, so.... you're suit is done, finished, looks awesome, you submit for approval and then you get into the 501st with your kit. Then... a major part of your kit gets damaged, lets say... your chest armor, or your...

Not one of my smarter ideas, that's for sure. lol

Loooong time no update to this thread. I was just emailed a few of the photographs the event organizers took, from the 5k costume walk/run i participated in on Sunday. I know they aren’t close up 360 degree coverage photos, but was hoping that you guys might be able to observe anything in them...

Looks great :)
