Thank for the pic. I'd like to see the details in this kind of headphones. It is a very difficult to make part.

Today I started the rest of the head.
I really want to thank you for the reference pics.
Pics coming...

 

[southreplicas]

I did an important advance in the project but the pics are too bad, tomorrow I will take better.
I dis the back head, started the eyes and ears. I thought to do the version with only 2 arms.

Regards.

My son just informed me that we should build a General Grievous. He is 7 and doesen't quite understandd why we would not be able to make him walk around. You have a great start. I look forward to future updates.

Thank you. I don't want to disapoint him but I am breaking my head thinking how this thing will stand on his own legs without any help. It is so far for walking around.

There was a guy, Earl, at C3 who made a full size Grievous. I spoke to him at length about that costume over dinner one night after the con. (he is a friend and co-worker of Gus Lopez)

He did a kick-a$$ job building it from scratch. very nice guy, too.

 

[southreplicas]

Thank you for your words.
New pics:
Ahhh. without the mask.

The central slot is where the the front mask fits.
I've been working with the neck and laterals. I have to make the line of little "electrical contacts"
Closer...
Don't look at details it needs hours of sand work.

Regards.
