That blue trooper just made the front page, R1bb1t.

Clint beat me to it! That airborne trooper mod just rocks.

It is so difficult to type with all of these tears of joy streaming down my face. I'm still shaking my head in disbelief.
You guys are the greatest.
Thanks so much for everything. This has got to be the best Star Wars site online.
I am forever grateful!

Thanks for looking.

Those look nice!  I keep thinking of doing droid customs because there's an infinite amount of possibilities, but I never do!  Nice work!

What did you use for the two astromech bases, Barry?  I love those R3's with the clear domes.  All three look like they've been around the block a few times!  (that's a good thing)

Thanks so much. I really appreciate your time and kind words.

Thanks, Michael. The astromech on the left was quite labor intensive, as I 'rubbed and scratched' all of the paint from the dome of an Episode 2  R3 unit.
The droid on the right is a simple dome swap, from a newer R5 body and a dome from an R3 unit.

Thanks for everything, guys.

Sweet droids, Barry! I will get em on the fp, tomorrow, buddy!
  I have one of those ep2 astromechs that I had started painting up but never finished. Perhaps when I am on vacation in two weeks.

Wow, thanks Clint! I never expected these droids to be front page worthy, but I certainly appreciate the praise.
I'd love to see what you could do with a droid.
Thanks, again, buddy!

Jay, you could make this one with ease. If you lived closer to me, I would happily give it to you, and be honored that you had it in your possession. Seriously.
It's a simple recipe... Pop the dome from a R3 and place (glue) it upon a R5 droid.

Thanks for the reply, Astromech Lord. I'm not worthy.

That clone in the Hangarbayed image is awesome.  Good job on the custom and the image!

Jules, I'm blubbering from joy. I love it. I am gobsmacked.
I love every single thing about it. As a sign of my everlasting gratitude, I'll either name my next child after you,
or, I'll have ' Julian Maurice' tattooed on my lower back.... Your call.
Thanks again for giving me the Hangarbay treatment. It's a true honor.
