I know how to build the perfect skeleton for just such a 'miniature' allowing to also have removable arms and head for easier detailing. The only problem for that is that I need to get out to the hobby store and the hardware store before it can happen...

Well.. I'ld have to draw up a to size set of plans as well so that will buy me some time to get out...

The back looks as though it needs a bit of build up so that it will be flat in profile and rounded at top. Like the MK-II helms are supposed to be. FW has their MK-II"s on display at multiple angles so that may help you out, Otherwise looking great so far Silver!

You have to understand Vik, we cannot visualize things in metric like you do. To us, it's all in feet and inches. The average man is 6' tall, A wall stud is 8' long (7' 3/4" really) the average fishing boat is 13' long, etc. etc.

Oh my!
Try being a Canadian in drafting...!
This year is all Imperial system.
Next year it's metric...
As it stands it's conversion all the time...

@Max - Yea! I think it'll eather be 1:1 or 2:1 so 9" (22.86cm) or 18" (45.72cm)

Nine inches feels about right..
But alittle small at the same time...
