Managed to get some more materials and started building the Asteroid trench but its just so damn hot here the plaster and other stuff is drying out way too quick. not a great start. lol.

How about using an air-humidifier? I have one that is quite effective, with a nozzle that I can point where I want the mist. I also think it helps a bit to soothe a sore throat, so maybe it could help against your hay-fever also. Maybe someone you know has one that you cold borrow for this project.

Plaster does not get hard by "drying". It cures hard in a chemical reaction, and (at least in my experience), the curing time is the same even if you mix it with a lot more or a lot less water than the prescribed ratio. After it has cured, the plaster needs to dry to become hard and be less brittle. You can not add plaster to dry plaster - the cured plaster needs to be wet for the uncured plaster to bond to it.

The plaster i am using is a modelling plaster that is an "air drying".  The moisture evaporates to set it so i can use a hair dryer to set it once i have finished work to speed up the process. this gives me a longer working time than ordinary plaster would. Luckily the weather is changing here and the temperature has dropped today so i'll be able to get back to work on it this week.

TAAAAAUUUUUUN!

Here's some more Taun Taun eye appearance mock up goodness!

The Taun Taun will SEE you in hell!

The Taun-Taun eyes idea is an interesting one but not one i will be incorporating into this edit i'm afraid. There's just something fake about eye replacement that i don't like. I don't have a problem with the eyes as they are

Hey guys, we should write/type letters/emails to film institutions and videophile websites and ask them politely to donate money to Adywan's cause. I'm going to write to the American Film Institution and to the digitalbits. Anywhere else you suggest I write? I was going to write one to Lucas and be like hey douchebag, I know you think you're too good to read this so one of your ass kissing PR guys is probably reading this right now so look, here's somebody who gives a damn, why don't you give him some money since you're too lazy to do it.

This is a terrible idea and i hope that no one will ever do something like this. This is the quickest way to get my edits shut down. If that happens because of someone's stupidity then i will hire a bounty hunter to track their ass down and there WILL be disintegrations. lol
