[QUOTE="Robstyley, post: 308665, member: 6009"] I did a bit more on the AT-AT; built up the centre section and clad it with another layer of cardboard so it's flush with the front and back sections. Added card at the bottom to make it flat and the right shape. Strengthened the inside with two struts and cut a hole in the front one for a neck tube. I'm going to make the head and attach it to a long 13cm diameter cardboard tube neck that will slide in and be removable. The gaps between the cardboard on the body need filling and finishing at some point. I've started doing a few calculations for the top of the leg bits and the legs themselves, will start making them next. There's already been a few **** ups I've had to correct! It's proving quite tricky but it's all good fun :P [ATTACH type="full" alt="P1060049(small).jpg"]10381._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="P1060054(small).jpg"]10382._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="P1060056(small).jpg"]10383._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="P1060057(small).jpg"]10384._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="P1060058(small).jpg"]10385._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
