R2 Finished!!!


Well this is what my finished R2 looks like...from the front anyways. Still have to attach the back door.

I got the battery boxes and middle foot cylinders and wedges mounted last night.

I'm planning on getting 2 new batteries..slightly larger..in the hopes that they don't wear out in 5 minutes.

Haven't decided if I want to try to weather him yet. Scared to ruin the whole thing!
