  1. Thanks. The window piece was actually pretty easy. Some plywood, a jigsaw, and some patience is all you really need. The wall panels were a little more complicated because they are actually boxes that have fabric on them that I had planned on lighting from the inside. I've tried four or five different types of lights and haven't found one that I'm happy with. So they are technically still a work in progress. Luckily I like the way they look even without the lights.

  2. First of all if Lucas wanted to make another movie, he would. When has rejection or criticism ever stopped him? Hollywood rejected Red Tails so he financed it himself. Secondly, considering what he has done with the originals as well as the prequels I'm okay with there not being an Episode VII. Doesn't mean there absolutely won't be an another movie, just means that he won't be the one doing it. If he really cared what the "fan boys" thought he wouldn't have continued to make change after change in the face of such opposition, so I'm not buying it that critics are the reason for his decision.

  3. There are gonna be times you wished you had bought it trimmed and assembled but like everyone said the frustrations and time are well worth it when you can look at your armor and say that you built it.

    I struggled with the same question when getting my AP as well. Follow tutorials as best as you can, some techniques will suit you better than others. I used a little of this and a little of that figuring out throughout the build what worked best for me. When you get stuck (which if you're anything like me you will) ask people here. These guys are great and won't make you feel stupid for asking questions.

  4. If you're looking to do that Chuck, you should revisit the Dewback idea for these folks.

    In fact, I know it would be a TON of work but you could do a Taun-Taun (for the cold weather folks), a Dewback (for us Sandies), and a AT-ST or speeder bike (for the Bikers).

    People might get them just for the uniqueness (and because your work is second to none, of course)
