Re: Foresttrooper's C3PO build
Cut the backs of the forearms down, when they sit at the 90 angle the ends at the elbow stuck out.
Cutting the resin bracket off revealed a weak resin/car body repair so I had to make new brackets,
Seems the small things take the longest.....

Re: Foresttrooper's C3PO build
I am at the most exciting stage of the build, final belly wires, elbow and knee wires and hand plates ready for some shiney gold armour plating,which will hopefully be here this week.
Looking at the Ep 7 3PO he appears to have cover plates at his arm sections, among a few other changes....

Re: Foresttrooper's C3PO build
Yes, it has been a long time in the making, one problem after another.
I lost a bit of interest in this project, doubting myself , doing other costumes, lack of money, time etc etc..but hoping to finally get him done this month.
The best pics are yet to come....
