More R2 Page Updates, as well as I continue to make progress on the new R2 in real life as well. I had to take some of the paint back down, as some of it did not go on properly since I rushed for the 5 day challenge. And while doing that I worked on some of the details on the Skirt. Progress is being made and he is looking good!
While, I failed the 5 day build challenge, I continue work on R2. It is funny because the more I work on him the more I realize how nuts that attempt was. But oh well you only live once right? The last night before Dragon Con I spent 40 hours strait working on him. Talk About Nuts and a lost cause.
I am almost happy I didn't finish him though, as he wouldn't have been truly finished and I would have cut corners. As I worked on R2 today, I went back to a nice steady pace of work. Not the 6 year pace I was on before, and not the 5 day one I was on earlier. Instead a steady balance of the two.
That said I realized I need to start documenting what I have done so I made some updates to the R2 Version 2 page today. The tutorial / progress blog is not to the point in-which R2 sits today, but some good info regardless.
To Check out the page go to Props > Star Wars > R2 Version 2.
So just wanted to make a post and say hey? I hope your Post Dragon Con Depression is not getting you too down. I am barely back from this year myself and already making plans for next year. Also prepping to use some of these ridiculously nice days as of later to work on R2 some more now that he is getting so close to being done.
That said, we are competing in band of buds for a trip to Vegas so if you have a second go to http://www.bandofbuds.com/crew/tk-bear-crew and give us a quick vote! Every vote helps and you can vote every day!
Con starts tomorrow and we arrived last night!
Sadly I failed the R2 5 day build Challenge. I came damn close, but oh well, next time.
103 Days Left Till Dragon*Con 2013!!!!! Are You Ready?
