Are you planning on putting some texture or pitting on the surface of the head and chest etc.. or are they going to be smooth ??

He said his plate is full, so they will ship from the US.

I found this image in a Pinterest site. It seems to be from a display at a celebration event.

Here's another angle from Alamy stock images. There's an obvious error in the text as it states it's from eps. IV.

Hey Jason. I noticed something about the eyes (shape) which seems a bit off... maybe a tad too big.
The tops of the eyes/brow area have a straighter then more gradual curve, and the bridge of the nose area is a bit wider and has a bevel which make the eyes appear less sad.

Yeah and looks like the eyes should be a bit more angular as well, and less rounded off.

Man I never noticed before how pitted up he was. I guess this was supposed to be one very old *** droid!

Adjusted eyes!

That looks better J
Also looking at the full model on the first page it looks like the arms are a bit too thin. They?re almost as wide as the mouth/microphone piece, maybe scale them up a smidge over 3/4 the width of the mic? The pistons look to be thickened up as well.

Looking better Rusty, though the brow (very top of "nose" where the eye sockets meet at the tops) should have sharper/more pointed corners, and the "bridge" area should be a bit wider.

Other than the upper/outer areas of each socket (top left and top right corners) which are more rounded, the outline of 21-B's eye sockets have quite sharp corners and straight lines with only very slight rounding.

The sockets also look like they could be sunk a bit deeper into the head. That will get a bit more shadowing into the sockets.

Please add me to the list.

Thanks!

Re: 2-1B 1:6 scale resin kit. Interested?

Adjusted eye-shape and depth! Think it's about there!

I missed that somehow. Thank you!

It?s hard to see in the render but maybe the pitting should be a little deeper. It will help hold the darker recessed color when dry brushing.
