I have seen some people stand on a ladder about 12 feet up and then zoom in with high definition cameras in order to get a proper undistorted view of their work. You may want to consider that close up photography will create perspective distortion and serve as an in accurate reference.
I know nothing about printing. do you think the printer will have a problem with the diamond pattern on the grips?
No kidding. I recently saw a Tomenosuke go for nearly $2000. For whatever reason a Coyle was selling for less, even though it's more accurate!
A question for those in this thread:
If the cylinder doesn't open is that a deal breaker? We've looked at this six ways from Sunday and I don't see a good way to have the cylinder open. Making pivots and hinges work out of plastic is a tough go, and I think if we keep pushing for that it will either 1) work and we'll have to charge a bunch more, or 2) it won't work (well enough to make me happy) and we'll be back to a non-opening barrel.
Again, this is meant to be a realistic plastic version of the original. There are somethings that we just can't do out of plastic for $150.00. The triggers will still work, we're still planning on LEDs and batteries (maybe as an option) and it will still look very accurate...
Gimme some feedback please
