88th LAAT/c WIP

Holy ****!

That is just.. awesome! I can't describe it!

The only complain I have is the ETA-2 cockpit. It just doesn't seem right.

I agree. The only problem is I couldn't find anything else close to it. If you look it doesn't have the twin cockpit like the standard LAAC so those were out with left me with 3 options. One was too wide, the other too narrow, and the ETA-2 which was the right size, but does seem weird on a LAAT/c. Hopefully the finished poduct will be good enough to make up for it.



DP, I didn't double post this time just for you. But it takes a lot more effort.

My collection of white is weak, besides my troops are Kashyyyk the grays will hide it better. But it isn't finished yet. Just wait. The highlighting white is coming.

Only because you can't hit the quote button a second time?

Then do this: Quote first post, but copy text and go back. Then quote second post, and past the text into that post. 2 quotes in 1 post. That isn't hard, is it?

Hard, no. Time consuming, yes.

Any ideas though on what to use to get rid of the ETA-2 cockpit?

Is it a possibility to widen the area around the cockpit so you could fit in a different cockpit? Or would that affect the build or accuracy?

That was my first option. Once I'm finished I'll see if I can change the cockpit around a little then maybe get some feedback on which one everyone thinks is the best.

You can also leave the same cockpit, and add some dark blue or gray stickers on it, so that it looks like it's part of the ship.

I actually think that cockpit is good on it.

Good idea. I don't have any sticker supplies though, I waiting to find stickers that can peel on and off easily. Here's the option on canopies that I have.



Top row: All wrong.

Bottom from Left to Right: Other official set, too wide, too narrow, & too long.

Row 2, Column 2. Or Row 3, Column 3.

? Yes? Row 3? Column 3? I have 2 rows and 4 columns. The 2 small ones in the bottom row, in the first column, are a pair.

I would go for row 2, column 2.

And the stickers you are looking for, are just simple stickers you can buy in store, they are a bit more like paper, no plastic coat or something like lego's. I use the same. Easy to put on and easy to pull off.

Is there a brand name? One thing I learned in my art classes is that not all adhesives, even in the same category, react the same.

*ahem* As I was saying, I like that cockpit.

Well that's it for this thread. If you haven't figured it out my WIP is finished and is in the Clone Creations section. Until next time. Keep building.
