Well it's been awhile since I've worked on him but I have finally made some progress. I have to work on his sensor and the screen on his side.

I've added the sensor probe and removed the tape from his nose laser.
His body is basically done. I am wondering what to make the screen out of. Any suggestions?

Love how tidy and clean you have him! I need to work on my plywood finish a bit more...

I cut out my letter and number.
I'm trying a border around the red squares on the control panel. Do you think that it looks ok. If it works out I'll make a better version. I also put on the bumpers. I found black ones back when I first started this build and they have been sitting ever since.

Looking amazing.
It makes me tempted to do up my K-9. I bought him on the Maldovar Market and he's all dirty and rusted but I'm too worried I'd make a mess of it.

Looks great! I really need to source some more accurate buttons for my K9.

I found the buttons but theyre so expensive :-( so I went for square ones because they cheaper.
Inaccurate square ones: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B076XX5G5N
More accurate but still off (because of the black "lips"): https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B076X2M7JF

I found the perfect trim for his screen. I have to give a special thanks to PB props on youtube for telling me how to do this.

And I am finally done! Well, all except straightening his eyes.
Behind him you can see my attempt from when I was much younger.
I might take a few more pictures and post them. I am still surprised at how big he is. I guess I still need to make him a collar. Maybe I should shove a strip of paper in his mouth as well.

He looks amazing!
Did you want me to post you my left over collar material?

Sure that would be great but I live in the US and I don't know if postage to The US is more expensive.

That's a great K9.
And yes, just like many props, you don't realize just how big he is until you start putting him together....
