the star pilot looks really sharp. I like the white helmet contrasting with the yellow flight suit..

I like your Joe pilot. Great idea, and you don't have to destroy a rare Joe figure.

Oh yeah, I think it looks right at place in our SW Verse. On the front page. I am sure most will love the idea of this one.

Great looking spacer! and who are these nay sayers? I don't see ant here.

Also from the reference pic you gave us I would go with the second set of pads and loose the chest armor. Then use some older cape to cut out the the pieces that hang over the shoulder and down the front.

Hey krztfr   this is great stuff  as mentioned before not an easy project that your doing on the swoop biker . I was impressed with the before pic, but i just looked at your updated pictures and
i must say much better . Even the way you got the head into the helmet excellent   keep it up  !!!

Thanks I haven't really touched the biker but I know I want to switch the forarms for a more protected look...but the helmet still needs alittle more hollowing but I'm starting to get the feeling I would be pressing my luck so I might try to cast and mold it and try hollowing the copies instead of ruining the only one I got...

Very cool WiPs... I like that Joe w/ the SW helmet a lot... simple yet effective parts combo...
Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I'll ever know. Live & die on this day. How we die is equal to how we live. Once more into the breach, my friends, once more, or we close the walls up with our dead...
