Thought you guys might find the project I am working on interesting. Its an R2D2 BB-8 mashup robot.
So far coming along well and have almost all the parts I need for the dome. If you guys like the way it looks I also have a free wallpaper of it on my website.

Nice work! That looks awesome!
Thanks Jeremie.
Here are some pictures of some of the pieces.
Dude i love it!
Thanks DJ
Oh and here is more mashup fun.
Are you chatting with Anthony (xl robots) at all? He's got designs to 3D print the entire thing without having to source a bunch of components.
Well I do not have a 3D printer. So I am building it all from parts I have. Plus the over all quality will better. The ball itself might end up being a bit different more related to the concept art from the new Star Wars movie.
For the head I am using this fiberglass mid century planter. As you can see I will have to cut off the center and make that part of it.
Any way a 3D printer would be nice but not in the budget at the moment.

Oh I see Anthony I did not know you had 3D files for the same kinda mashup
Seems to have turned out well.
