UPDATE ON DISPLAY STAND!Utiniiii! Little scoundrel bastard complete!!!

[_Lee_]

Hey guys,

Hope all is well. So after deciding to take a break from the hobby i decided to build a lifesize Jawa. I owned one years ago but sold it on due to space issues. This is 80% complete now and there are only a few bits left to do. Best thing is that it has cost me the best part of £25 so far and a bit of work.

Enjoy

Now with a plinth all rocks are false btw, my little recipe

 

[grinchy]

That looks great! love the weapon to, very nice job

 

[Mr-shifter]

Nice job Lee. You can't even get a loose jawa for £25 these days

 

[indianawars]

Well done matey... You can see a lot of time and effort has gone into it. I'm sure it's a nice get away from reality doing something like this, like fixing cars, or going fishing.

 

[Michael Sith]

[MarkG]

[Jediknight3263827]

great work mate, love it

 

[user 5830]

Its brilliant finished; very impressive stuff.
Did you take any work in progress pictures? I'd be very interested to see how you made all the elements and at that budget, who wouldn't! I know that time and skill is more valuable than materials, but I still doth my cap to you sir for creating such a great piece for such small outlay 8)

Thanks all.

Here i the rundown of total cost, including the blaste i made around a year ago:

Blaster made from plumbing parts, greeblies,odds and sods, a bit of 5x1 for the stock. The slanted nozzle on the end was made from a thermos mug interior which had its outer smashed. Cost for it all was around £10

Jawa was made from the following:

2 x brown throwover blankets £1.99 each from Primani (primark )
Pattern as found on the net to cut the size. I also used the kids as models.
1 x black styrene dummy head £3
1 x eye lights £4
1 x wine rack that i brought home free from work a while back ( base)
1 bundle of plumbing parts to make mannequin £7
1 x roller gaffer tape
Spare bubble wrap i had lying around to beef the body up and strengthen with tape.
1 x 1m piece of leather look vinyl for bandoliers,plus paper fasterners as buttons £5

Ill try to do a build write up soon

Brilliant, even kept it "Jawa" real, by putting together from spare parts and odds and ends, you have JAWA genes Lee :wink:
