New Project And New Score

[Andy]

Hey Guys

Well I\'ve just finished my latest little project and the Star Wars collection has just grown by one more. Just this week I received my second Rubies Tie Pilot helmet, the first I gave a make-over but kept is as a Tie but this one\'s had a total transformation and is now my AT-AT Driver lid. Once again the shape of the helmet out of the box was a bit special, I\'m starting to think they kick the damn things from the mold shop to the paint shop :down: but it was nothing a few clamps and spreaders and a little lovin\' from the hot air gun couldn\'t take care of. This was a real fun project and while I was waiting for the lid to arrive I\'ve been sourcing and making a few bits and bobs, had to take a few liberties here and there as some of the details are damn hard to make out, let alone track down but it\'s all come together great and I\'m really pleased with this one. Couple of things I\'d do different if I was to do another but still I\'m a happy chappy weat:

And here it is, the Rubies Tie convert to AT-AT driver
