Well, gentlemen, here's my variant of those great SBDs, that we've been shown in Crash of the Jedi CW Cartoon episode....

That's a really neat idea! :thumbup: All you need now is to paint a little red dot on the torso to be 100% accurate :tongue:

Although i'm sure it'd be too expensive for TLC to ever do something like what you've done... :sceptic:

Perhaps gluing/sticking some trans orange studs in the back would be nice. Anyway great painting and idea for making these guys. Keep up the great work :thumbup: .

Those are really nice. The paint job isn't perfect, which is a good thing considering it isn't perfect on the droids once they go into combat.

Looks good, but on the rocket droid, try putting a short light grey pin in the back of its head, and then a 1 x 2 with old binocs on top, I have it on mine and it looks good.

I have not seen that camo droid though...

Those are very accurate, other than the missing red dot. Although, as someone mentioned earlier, TLC is way too cheap to ever create anything as detailed as that. Job well done. :thumbup:

Thanks a lot! ) Speaking of the red dot.... Well, initially I had the idea of making it, but that would require red dots on my other SBDs.... Because in such cases I'm a perfectionist. ) :sweet: But when I thought of making about 100+ red dots.... Wewl, I guess I'll do it sometime, when I have enough time and lack of laziness! ) :laugh::thumbup:

Thank you very much! ) And great thanks for thye idea! ) :sweet: I shall try to do so! ) :thumbup:

Thanks! ) :thumbup: One of the things I definitely like in CW cartoons is that they pay attention to small details, like paint on droids. ) :sweet:

I really like this! All you need is that red dot. :thumbup:

:classic: Thanks a lot! ) :classic: Ill try to do it as soon I find the red paint.... ) :classic:

I very nice idea, thanks! ) :thumbup:

Cool It looks reallly good with the grey-ish blue

Thank you very much! ) :sweet::thumbup:

Thank you! ) Indeed, I'm also quite sure TLC won't give us that type of droids, but I guess we should not be strict to them, since they gave us those great rocket-launcher-armed-droids! ) They look awesome and even diminished for a sertain small percent my level of disappointment, which appeared after them closing the Batman line! ) :cry_sad:

Thank you for your comments, gentlemen! ) :sweet::thumbup:

The camouflage droid looked black to me at first, but when I looked up a little the screen brightened. :tongue: Very good job. It'd be nice for the little red dot to go on the rocket droid.

Yes, that's my fault. I think I should make a better pic of the camouflaged droid. ) :classic: Thank you! ) I guess, I'll have to make dots for all my SBDs, after all! ) :sweet:

Good day, gentlemen! ) :sweet:

This is a customized minifig, so I'll move this to the MCW, since it's gotten all the feedback it could here in the Star Wars forum. - Great idea on painting this, eventhough I'd never ever do that to any of my figs - I am a puritan.

Do I need to take a better picture of my camouflaged droid? Because it seems that not everyone can see it properly.... ) :classic:
