Jules, I haven't watched the vid yet as it is my bedtime but I just wanted to say that the cargo bay is bloody exquisite. And for a yank, that's saying something.

But do you think this will fit in my stocking, mate? Or should I be getting a bigger one?

Oh Jules she is a beauty. Nice adjustments to the paint job. I love the interior shot of the cargo bay. Now what became of that shuttle that goes inside? Great job man!

Thanks for the boost!

AWESOME JOB! I had good feelings about this and you pulled it off my friend =) I need to find some more nice vehicles to customize =)

Why go through life base fig, when you can customize?

Jules, you've outdone yourself with this one. Seriously I never could've imagined the Wall-E truck turning into something ultimately SW as your latest creations. A splendid paint job (as always, but it can never be complimented enough) and above all, a huge amount of playability! I just checked the supercool video, in which you give a great presenation of Bessy Mk.2. I absolutely love all the moving parts and stuff and the decals bring me back to me younger days so, so long ago  :)

You talk about Bessy Mk.2 being a temporary name. How does Maddock sound, a bit derived from Mad Dog. I was thinking Hound Dog, but that sounds too much like Bossk's ship the Hound's Tooth. Just throwing in some suggestions  ;)

What paper do you use for your decals? I have some regular A4 sized labels, but of standard quality. Do you use that also and do you treat the printed decals afterwards with some sealant?

I'm asking because when I saw the floot gratings and such I thought to myself that I would most likely cut that all out from a sheet of styrene. Yep, that's me, always the hard and very long way around things, while this is so much faster and ending in the same beautiful result.  :)

Incom,

I'm flattered, I'm really not in the same callibre as you when it comes to skill which is why I cheat...I'd never go cutting  styrene, i just don't have the skill or patience.

The decals are good old a4 stickers with the images printed on. As long as it's not played with in the rain it'll be ok.

Like you said, same results, one 10th the pain! plus with only limited time on my hands I need quick solutions. It's funny but that's how I got good at Photoshop, I simply didn't have the time to make loads of dioramas like Chewie does for the photonovel, I needed a quick, easy solution.

That tears it - I'll be renewing my "Hangerbay-Fanboi Club" today!  I checked the "100 year plan" box...

FRIKKIN SWEET, Jules!!!  I love the INT-4 "ears" up front!

Technical issue/question - how'd you make the arm in the cargo bay?  I can see the Droideka blaster unit on the end... what's the rest made of?

MAN, Jules, that is so killer!  I wish I had HALF of the imagination you guys seem to!  I never would have thought of that looking at that ship!  Hell, I probably wouldn't even have looked at that line of toys period!  It's killer, and the play value is enormous!  Excellent work!
