I really hope you have the time and energy to work on this Sean, it truly is a real treat and looks stunning.

If we can help out in any way then please just ask. This project is great and if you need motivating I can pop over to LA and poke you with a sharp stick, or make tea, or plump your cushions up you name it and I will do my best.....

Hey guys, I've been meaning to update this thread but haven't had time (writing an album and also got sidetracked with doing some other customs).

The bantha is pretty much complete with minor details remaining. I still haven't found an airbrush (I'm thinking an Iwata HP CS- I need something that's maybe dual action and easy to clean- any advice appreciated). Anyway- I needed the airbrush to correctly finish off the paint on the face/mouth area, and also to detail the fur (using synthetic fur, but it needs some shading). But maybe I'll manage without it.

I wanted to take some pictures of it in it's "natural" environment, so maybe I can find some sand dunes nearby (I live in southern California) and get them up here pretty soon.

I think I have an extra air brush I can led you. Let me know if you need it.

I have finished this, quite some time ago in fact. It really didn't take that long. The only thing that held me up was the painting aspect, but I was able to manage. I wanted to take photos of it outside here in sunny California, but it's always cloudy when I have time so I haven't gotten around to that yet. Hopefully soon.

Now I'm working on another large Star Wars creature, more WIP details soon.
