Hello My Fellow Fett's,
Most of you may know me from working on my ROTJ Fett all last year and even continuing into this year with upgrades (That old saying that Fett is never complete). I know it is not 100% accurate but it was one of my most proudest creations that I've ever done! Here's just a few of my favorite pics of that build....
(I have even updated a few things since these last pics) If you're interested in that journey, here's the link: Iron's ROTJ WIP

But enough of my ROTJ Fett, today I wanted to start to walk you though my process of building a static 1:1 Jawa prop. This Jawa will stand at exactly 36" as per an article on starwars.com.....

My inspiration was from a fellow TDH member - [USER=14255]Lazerjock[/USER] ! Who built up this Jawa - which I thought was done great!
