Project: R2-D2 becomes R2-M5!
TheBestCaseScenario Exclusive! I won't post this brief worklog anywhere else!!
Since I built my R2-D2 a few years ago, many others have been popping up. To keep the whole Astromech idea fresh, I'm changing my paint job, to RED thus becoming R2-M5!

Yes! Finally some love for the other astromech droids. For that you deserve a +rep sir.

Re: R2-D2 becomes R2-M5!
Besides this and a purple R5, I dont think I've seen very many variations on the R2 spring up as projects. Cheers for daring to be different! +rep

About half way on one side is done.
 And the eyepiece is coming around too.

It's about time some of the other R2 units get some well deserved attention. +rep for sure!

IMO the red really suits it, great work.
As others have said, its nice to see someone daring to do something different.

Re: R2-D2 becomes R2-M5!
Next are the legs which are the hardest part because the goofy shape is difficult to tape off.
 For the first time the paint dripped a bit.  But it does look a lot better.  Still more coming...
