very cool card Matt and Pit

just getting a few more vehicles over the next few weeks, so will have some more to paint

I looked up that vehicle it looks pretty cool, considering.. gi-joe always had great stuff would've loved that huge flag carrier.

Based on the time that I would have done that one, probably just a standard EP1 Battle Droid. Their limbs lend themselves well to cutting with a scalpel and repositioning

I'm pretty sure i'd end up like penny from the big bang theory when using glue lol
