no, only one....... :mrgreen:

hmm. noticed you are doing the 1932 full auto version. Any chance of including the sideplate for the C96 as well, so it can be be built "standard" as well? I think I'll be doing that anyway, It's not a difficult leap. any chance of one of these? my tommygun needs some freinds.

Nothing, You rotten sod. i've had an accident.:oops: is it finished yet? How about now? IwantoneIwantoneIwantone..... *runs in circles...*

HMM. The M134 minigun is approx. 38" long, with 22" barrels. There are loads of photos about on the net, and i'll bet if you tried to contact an owner of one of the BB versions, they'd be quite happy to send you some photos. But anyway, back to the case in hand: She's nearly finished, just a...

oh no. I shall continue dreaming, however. How 'bout a broomhandle mauser? they're pretty.

of course there's allways one of these, if you want to be REALLY impressive... :mrgreen:

thankyou mr Sneaker. A few extra coments on the stock. after researching around there does appear to be a bit of variation in stock shape, but I've had enough mucking about and sanding, so it will stay as it is. I'm down to details now, and finding somewhere to hide it until my...

onto the bit I had dreaded, The Stock. I've decided to go with card for this, instead of my usual balsa, as i don't have sufficient wood for the job, and I wanted to see how it would turn out, anyway. Now, I'm not sure if it was my sloppy building and coverting to 1mm card and joining...

I'm going to start skipping ahead a bit now, as I think I've pretty well explained most of the techniques I'm using for this build. Please ask questions if you feel you need to know more. I reinforced and assembled the forestock, and encountered no real problems, except of my own making. The...

wow. All those wheels. you are a braver man than I am. :thumb: looks awesome so-far.

wheee!!!! I've had to give some thought to how I'm going to mount the pistol grip to the receiver, in order to give maximum strength. here's my solution; I think that should be adequate. Now to clean these parts up and make 'em all pretty like.

thanks all! more on the barrel : I've changed the shape of the barrel a bit, going for two parrallel sections with a cone shaped piece in the middle. first I made up a length of paper tube to fit tightly inside the first, and long enough for the full 10" barrel length. I made...

more receiver stuff... I've altered the back end, which shows the reason for the packing earlier on, as i've trimmed the side phlang bits at an angle to meet the back plates, as per my references. The side phlanges were also increased in depth by 2mm each side, by adding extra covering ...

Further on the receiver... I've made a few changes to the shape of things here, to line up more closely with the references I have. The curve at the back of the magazine port was removed, and the one at the front made sharper, and the area in front was made slightly shorter in height than...

onward and upward.. The side pieces were cut up into two to facilitate the bend. This area was a bit finicky and extra time was taken to make sure eveything fit. I guess idealy I should have made the top part of the sides with something a bit thinner, as I got wrinkles in...

Okay, card in hand, lets get started. Now I'm going to treat this as a bit of tutorioral on how I reinforce a model, and subsequently sand and smooth until I have a part that looks like a 1 piece molding or casting. So pay ettention. :mrgreen: Firstly, this process results in a VERY...

Thank for the happy comments. It's pretty much all card / foamcore with a bit of aluminium wire and some LEDs. I used 5mm foamcore for convenience, but it would probably be better making the blocks from thinner, folded card. oh yes, it's painted with acrylics.

I have a 1/33rd of this plane.. but this one's SO cute!!!

added some extra bits....

thought I'd better start including a scale cube in my posts, so here's my latest creation: The Hexidecimal Ocular-comparitive measurement'o'tron : All in all, about six hours work, nothing to difficult just a bit tedious cutting out the cogs. This one I wanted to...
