Okay I just made a quick test decal for R5's head, to see how good I am at it. Does that look alright for R5-D4? I'll make a better one later, and I'll have to make one for the round tile on top.

Oh that's awfull Look, even the tuskens are appauled! :X: :X: :X:

Yeah. I could always just make some kind of decal and print it on a cylinder for the head with the tile and that'll work nicely :) Also, with all those starship sets (mainly ep2 and ep3 ones) with the astromech's head just planted on the side wings of the ship, does the set also come with a body for the droid? Sometimes i've considered buying the whole set just for the droid (but of course i'd still like the ship and all ;) )

weird green droid....not really. 21B, maybe? but he was kinda blueish. As for the droid, for the whole head instead of usind a plain white peice (oh dear!) they could have gaven him a 2x2 cylinder peice with a design on it, and then a 2x2 flat round white tile to smoothen out the top. If you understood that? :X:

What parts are stickers? How come there isn't any bigger pics, and It looks like the red astromech has a chrome gold head (though they aren't making them anymore) or a white head or a dodgey light-up head. Are any of these true?

Well...try searching it on brickshelf.

No, he didn't speak. We only saw him at Padme's funeral. Kid Padawan:- "Theres too many of them, what are we going to do, master Skywalker?" Anikan: - (...ignites lightsabre) *pishouunk!*

Yeah, I saw it too...poor Aayla....poor Kit Fisto....poor Ki Adi Mundi :'( poor Anikan. Aah well, that's life (or death?) BEST MOVIE EVER! Hey, now sinse this topic has only just started, I'd like to ask everyone "what's your favourite starwars movie?" -Cyclonis. :X:

hey, does anyone know if they can supply me with official lego star wars decals? also, those decals look pretty cool, but i don't like those mouths--they look like dragonball z mouths, and i don't like it that way. other then that, they're good.

Has anybody tried making this beuty?: http://www.starwars.com/databank/starship/...r/img/eu_sm.jpg

Exquise me? Baking powder?

They may...

Yes. As he naps, his energy and wisdom gains.

The e in eBay does not stand for Evil.

yes

MSN!

They look pretty alrighty. I don't actually like the legs that much, but I like your nature for original ideas. I would have just used this peice instead, actually: But only the white version of the legs, which can be found in this set:

..because I bought the "6772" set, ya know that small rocket car thing, and then I later recieved it for Christmas as a gift, so I ended up with two spare engines ;)

Made COMPLETELY out of spare peices, I think I did great with this TIE. Of course, the frontal window wasn't a spare peice, it was from the "Final Duel" set. I had nothing to do with it, so i decided to make a TIE with it, and that's how it was made. As you know, there is now wings, but it's only a pod. I might make some wings in the future, though Enjoy!

...and what do thier helmets look like?

Thanx. You will see some more customs by me. Wether they are great or not, is up to you. ;) I might make some more snowies, i'm not too sure, though. Today I tried making one the same, but without the face cover-cloth thingy, and then I was going to glue some real material cloth onto the inside, to make it look super-realistic, but then it got a little hard for me, so instead I just made a "battle-damaged" at-at driver ;)

Hello people, I am in a joyful mood today. What I have came here for, is to show off my new Custom Snow trooper. I don't have any official snow troopers, as they are quite rare nowadays, but I do have a little bit of white sculpey. Starting to understand the idea, now? First, I had to grab a random minifig torso with a head on it. In my case, I grabbed my little model, which i always use for scupey works, which is a simple original Johnny thunder head with his torso, because i have millions upon millions of Johnny thunders, and I don't really like any of them one bit. Secondly, I had to wrap aluminium foil around the head, in order to prevent the sculpey from sticking to the head and ruining the whole project. I then whipped out the Sculpey, and got straight to work. In order to achieve similar appearance between the snowtrooper and lego's versiuon, I grabbed a photo from peeron.com: http://peeron.com/pics/inv/custpics/x884.1....1077962065.jpg ...and so I sculpted it around the foil-wrapped head, while looking at the picture from my computer. I ran into a couple of problems in that time. I just couldnt get the shape right, and I couldn't achieve symmetry while sculping it. BUT After a long, LONG time, I eventually got both of those things correct, and I took the helmet off the minifigs head with care, with the foil still inside of it. I then placed it straight in the oven, along with a "Majora's Mask" which didn't turn out to well, hahaha. The buzzer's going of, I race to the oven with exitement, along with fear that it might not turn out too well as planed, but i am a courages kid, so I grasped the handel of my oven door, and i yanked out the tray. Of course, I had my doubts about that "Majora's Mask". It didn't work, it was bad and went all crack-ly. But that didn't bothor me, because I knew that it wouln't turn out. What I was more interested in was the snow trooper helmet. So i carefully took it into the palm of my hands, burning a deep brown crispy hole straight through the nerves of my hands (well, not really) but i put the trooper helmet down to cool. Once it cooled, I tested it Violla! It was a complete success! I did a little playing around with it for a while, like coulouring in the black parts of the goggles ( it didn't puch holes in there, or then that would have ruined the whole thing!) and it worked out to my liking. So, without further stalling for time, I give you THE SNOW TROOPER: As you can see, I didn't want to add the backpack to the helmet, so i didn't. Instead, I just made him wear a backback seperately (instead of TLC permanetly attaching the pack to the helm, as i just said) I also took the foil out of the inside of his helmet as soon as it cooled down. If I were to change one thing about this helmet, it would be to make the face mask thingy a bit more straight down the bottom, but I think mine looks more realistic. Overall, this was greater than i expected, and i also made a decal for him too, as you can see in the picture (thanks for making the decal design, kaminoan) and I am quite proud of it, and the helmet fits on nicely, not too loose so that it falls everytime you pick it up, but not too tight, so that you can't ever get it off. It turned out just right. Thankyou for your time. -Cyclonis.

thanx, I put heaps of time into it, getting the proportion right and all. Oh, and also, i wanted to buy some snowtrooper helmets from bricklink, but i couldn't (cause i ran out of cash :P :$ ) and so i am making some helmets for myself! :P :P :P -(i love that smiley)

but i don't like how on the boxes, there are pictures of kids playing with them. They are trying to make it look older, but it just looks un-profecional. And it makes me look bad when i buy it.
