The second leg still needs a paint scheme.
To get everything better done, i transported the utility droid to my Shop. Here i have all tools and technical components to get everything fixed and finished soon.
Here you can see it already painted and weathered:
the only thing i could do on O-LT the last days was checking the whole build to see what was still missing.
the second thing was to check my store for the right parts, materials and other stuff to get this build done!
so i glued the side covers with a special plastic glue.
pic will follow
they are not 100% accurate in size, but for me it is ok!
next is to build the shoulder rings from scratch. i made a template in plastic (from a bottle) for this (see picture) and transfer the dimensions to a more rigid plastic tubing which is thicker. the tubings will be covered with a silver decal, that i will get from my brother-in-law.
Currently i am doing another Droid. It is O-LT from this Star Wars book.
I have it done for around 75%, so still a lot to do on it.
Here it is:
...on other stuff the R2 parts at the Moment.
Currently i am building up a 1970 VW Beetle... New Chassis Floor Pans, mediablasting everything, a Primer Job, a Paint job ... A lot of Work... Here already with a new Front axle and Tons of parts laying on the Chassis, that have to bei built onto the Chassis or the Body...
