Frame finished, skin snaps

Hi guys 'n girls. Had another building session on Friday, and the frame is now completed. I also started putting in the skin snaps from Daren, which work really well - I just need to tweak the upper frame circle a bit to add the third set of snaps, but it's coming along rather nicely. I think I'll achieve my goal to finish this droid for his first outing at Jedi Con.





Another thing I did was placing the radar eye a little lower, as I wasn't all too happy with it before. I checked several reference images and realised the original R2s had it really low, so I put mine lower as well - and I like it a lot more now... here a before and after comparison:

That's it for now. More building coming soon :)
