P-1 : No começo...em janeiro de 2016

Logo após o primeiro trailer de Star Wars EP.7 - The Force Awakens,fiquei perplexo com aquele novo droid, que era uma "bolinha" ambulante.

De cara, já saquei que este seria o novo "xodó" da nova trilogia que estava começando. Eu sempre quis construir o R2-D2, mas devido à alta complexidade e custos, algo em torno de R$ 20 mil de acordo com outros droid builders, nunca consegui tornar esse sonho uma realidade. Então, quando percebi que o BB-8 já estava sendo construído por alguns, com preços menos exorbitantes e com as mais variadas técnicas, resolvi encarar o desafio, pois realmente parecia ser "fácil". Hummm, ledo engano. Aaahhhh, se eu pudesse desistir....

In the beginning ... in January 2016

After the first trailer for Star Wars EP.7 - The Force Awakens, I was puzzled by that new droid, which was a walking "ball".

Of course, I've already gotten this to be the new "xodó" of the new trilogy that was beginning. I always wanted to build R2-D2, but due to the high complexity and costs, something around $ 20 thousand according to other droid builders, I never managed to make that dream come true. So when I realized that the BB-8 was already being built by some people, with more affordable prices and the most varied techniques, I decided to face the challenge, because it really seemed to be "easy". Hmmm, my mistake. Aaahhhh, if I could give up ....
