The droids look spectacular, Ron!
I dabble in the Star Wars Universe of Toys... I rip apart little plastic people and turn them into other plastic people. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them.

Hi All,

Bronxstalker, JDeck, I-am-Boba-Fett, Tamer, AjuntaPall, customjedi, krztfr & Clonehead Guys thanks heaps for the comments and sorry I haven't replied sooner, I was put back into hospital for the last 5 days as I got a severe infection in my ankle and only got out today.

Ron

Hi All,

Well finally up and about using crutches, I can't carry anything for my usual outdoor pics so indoor ones will have to do until I get rid of the crutches and I can walk on my own.

Here is my repainted R5-D4 which I repainted into a Imperial Astromech R6-H8, he was painted using Tamiya matt black spray paint and then I used GW paints for the rest and weathered him using pastels. I also gave him some chips on the silver areas by lightly chipping the paint away using a model knife.
