Just give it some time. As the images aren't web optimized it could take a while to download them so you can see them.

It's looking good Jeff, it will be exciting to have at events.

It's going to be a static prop but will have lights, sound, and the head will turn

I have to admit Jeff, he looks a lot better than when I saw him last. Good going bud.

Well, he's just about finished. I need to add lights to the dome. I had the hardest time painting him though. I'm not happy with the paint job at all. I tried all kinds of paint and nothing would stick to it. One of these years i'll have to sand it down and re do it. But a less than desirable paint job is better than no R2 at all. :D
