Wanted to make a birthday present for a friend who is a big fan of a certain war that's in the stars. Its a bit tight in places but still looks good just try to make it as big as you can.
There are a few big factors to consider when working with acrylic but the biggest I have seen by far is the type of acrylic you use. If you make a thread about it on the forum I would be more than happy to help. I cant give a full comment as they only let you type 300 characters in the comments.
