No problem vod! I still gotta talk to my buddy about casting these things...because you do NOT want my original...I built a hyperlight dome (less than a pound, yet I can stand on it) then proceeded to pack bondo to build all those ridges and such on the back (now it weighs a ton)...And I want em to be hollow, so we're gonna mold and cast em with urathane plastic...a bit more expensive then resin, but amazingly strong...so in the end it will be perfect!!! I'm stoked about this (as if you couldnt tell...):cheers

Dont worry vod...I'll make sure they meet standards... I'm trying to keep the original light...but we shall see...
And I have a question for you:
How exactly do you want this part to look? Does the top piece (circled part) stick out over the lower piece? of am just suffering from a 2D moment and totally not seeing it?

Alright...awesome!!! That makes my life so much easier... I was trying all these wierd angles and overlays and undercuts &cs and it was looking really strange...lol Now I can just make it all the same initally, then add a plate of sintra over it to give it a bit of protrusion...
Thanks ner vod!!!

well... right now I have 6 of 9-10 total mando'ade sketched already. Kal is sitting on an ammo crate, Fi is sitting on the ground, Ord'ika is sitting indian style and A'den, Lev'ika and Mereel are standing... Mereel angled in from the left, A'd'ika and Lev'ika from the right.

Hmm....put the others on a giant Jell-O mold? Nah.
You need yourself a vehicle. Something like Luke's landspeeder with a mounted gun where the tail engine was. That takes care of 3. If it winds up being 10, toss the last one in next to Mereel.

Oooooh. Good call on the Bes'uliik. With all your Mando's, I think a hangar might be a little hard to squeeze in. An FDC sounds good, though.
Okay here's a quick update: I have 7 vode finished: Kal, Fi, A'd'ika, Lev'ika, Ord'ika, Jang'ika and Mer'ika. I have 5 of them already fused and ready to color, I have 2 more waiting to be scanned. That leaves Ad'ika, Kad'ika (lil' saber), and Pac'ika. I plan on having this one done pretty soon, but I'm also trying to work on my own armor at the same time so...lol

Hey at least it is something to do in the long run. I am actually to busy to do any work in terms of my armor right now. School finals are really catching up to me. Lucky I only have three more things to do for school and then I am free to do what I want for the next month LOL! And that counts on my mando design and getting it set up with paint. LOL!
