Thanks guys, it's actually that the designs are done, the final high-res files have yet to be finalized for print...
So the ones you see on the site are only test proofs, I've recently color corrected them to match the Ark panels (the Ark panels ARE done, and ready for printing on 11x17).
The Teletraan-I unit is pretty much done, design-wise... I'm still waiting to print it out and assemble it all together. I've been super busy these last few weeks, but I hope to get the final high-res files available within the week.
Sami (SamiWCP) is helping me test the prints to make sure everything lines up, I actually don't have full access to my work plotters for a few days. Right now, the design files allow it to be printed at 30" tall, at max size, but that's a tad big I realized. I intended it for MP/Alternator scale at the largest, went a TAD big.

Here's the temporary low-resolution images. The high-res files are just too big for now, I hope the traffic doesn't cripple my site.
They have been color corrected to match the Ark plates, and scaled down slightly. They're 200dpi and should still work well for a 24" tall unit, if people so desire.
I'm not promising that everything lines up just yet, but keep checking the original thread for updates.
Thanks guys! By the way, the custom Alts use Valkfan's heads, but sadly I just lost them recently in a fire. They were my favorites!

thanks for all the kind words. As a matter of fact, the whole thing fits together just great, I just did a half-scale paper model and everything lines up EXCEPT the center console (the pronged bottom half).
I will have it fixed by end of day tomorrow, if everything goes as planned. I actually managed to get all the body lines to match up, but somehow my math was wrong and it sticks over the "keyboard" area WAY too much.
Apologies, I'll actually replace that file on my server once it's done. The rest can be assembled just fine. It may take a few edits, but the edges all lined up perfectly for me.
You must use a foam core board to mount it to or thicker stock to print it on, because the sheer weight of it makes regular paper terrible to deal with (I only used it to test everything lining up).
I'll try and help folks out later with any printing issues, bear with me.
