Hi all,
My name is Will and I have been scratchbuilding off and on for about 10-12 years or so and am also a member of the 501st (Dewback Ridge Squad - Mountain Garrison) in Albuquerque, NM. I have been lurking around your forums here for almost a year now and have been trying forever to get registered. I have learned/seen some really amazing things here from all you and wish I had found you earlier when I first started building. Nevertheless, here I am thanks to the wonderful powers of the internet. Last year I came across WoF templates for the Republic Commando DC-17 and decided to try my luck at it. First off I have to give a big thanks to him for posting these blueprints which made my life so much easier and made for a much more accurate rendition of this piece. So, thanks again Alan. But enough about that, you're probably wondering what I'm rambling on about and would like to see some pics, right? Well, look no further: Here are Alan's blueprints that I am speaking of:
Here are some 3d renderings from the game
And here is the almost finished product after about 8 months of blood, sweat, tears and screwups
I have over 450 pictures chronicling the construction of this beast so I don't really feel like reposting 8 months worth of posts again so I'll do the next best thing and post some links! If you would like to see the construction of this prop go here:

Some of you here may already know me and I'm guessing that most of you don't, but you may be aware of other projects that I am currently working on or have done in the past and I will post those threads' links and pics after I have done a few more posts and people get to know me. Once again, I'm happy to be here and hope to get to know or maybe even meet many of you in the future. Will
