Lestat Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 That is looking impressive! What did you use to make the components? Is it milliput or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Hunk Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 yep milliput standard yellow grey Really? Wow. I thought you were going to say it was balsa wood or laser printed plastic or something! In that case that's some good milliputing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassar Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 I'm finally happy with a bayonet configuration which fits both practicality, duel purpose and looks the part.http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/001_zps375dd4ca.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/002_zps55b7414a.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/003_zps6c476fc1.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/004_zpsea445823.jpg http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad52/marcuscassar/005_zps80afe29e.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astartes-ULTRA Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Impressive idea and execution. I think FW missed a trick here, for which they will either end up adopting this idea or forever wish they had. Great work, brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Sgt. Steine Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That's incredible. You are truly gifted man. It looks like something straight out of the FW catalogue. How did you do the details on the ammo feed belt? It looks really uniform and clean. Also, will you put some paint on this model at some point? Again, great project!

cassar Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 eventually I may paint it. The details all done by hand with cutting tools, files sand paper etc (had to break the belt in half to do the inner segments psst don't tell anyone lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
