wannab Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I finally got around to cutting into and fixing my SDS lids. It took quite a bit to get them to look right. I had to cut and reposition quite a lot -- trim the eyes and ears, even up the dome as much as possible. the eyes on the hero needed a lot to get the lenses to seat right. I had to bring the bottoms forward and trim the brow (stunt) to even it out. I riveted it back together it seemed to firm up the finished product. Still not perfect but they are as close as they can be. I wouldn't have had the guts to take this on prior to working on my TE lids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoCKo Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 nice rework! well done! try to take pictures from a bigger distance just using zoom, it will show more of the actual proportions! i hope you get what i mean?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannab Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yeah Rocko I know what you mean, but it seems to be tough to get a non blurry shot with my camera that way. I did take these from about 5-6 feet away and just cropped the image. Best I can do with my cruddy camera -- I'd rather have the lids than a better camera anyway, lol.

Too Much Garlic Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 That's definitely not half bad looking. Pretty sweet rework on those lids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
