    Looking good so far. I'm glad to see someone else using that "Intelligence Warrior" as a base. It's a great starter body, and the individual bots are far closer to the real Constructions than anything Hasbro has put out.

    yea like i said in the post above it was the first time i had bought something from shapeways an didnt realize what i had done till i recieved it

    i actually like the texture on the helmet but i wish the face was smooth

    i have the eye inserts but i am wondering if i can get someone to cast them for me in like a transluscent red so i can put an led behind it

    I talked to Cashanova and he told me the best material to get from shapeways is transparent. Maybe that could help with the led eyes as well.

    I can upload the eyes to shapeways seperately if you want? Then you could order them in transparent?

    The head looks fantastic. I even like the texture, though as you mention, the face would look better smooth. Nice.

    The whole thing looks great (in progress) but the head/face is awesome!
