Hi,

I'm new here and wanted to share some of my amatuer work with you all. This was the first prop I built and I think I did a good job

I have since built some other SW bits, and really enjoy it.

I've also added a resin copy of the MG-34 bipod to complete it.

That's some great looking scratch building! Did you get those templates from the BBC?

Thanks Motman.

I'm not 100% sure where i found the templates, but I know it wasn't the BBC, although there are the same templates somewhere on their boards. I found them when googling DLT-19's when I first decided to build it.

Hi Sleeper341,

Again, thanks for the compliment DM.

The reciever is made from 9mm foamex sheets that I got from a local sign writers scrap pile. Infact the whole thing is made of foamex except the barrell, which is overflow pipe and connectors. The muzzle is a liquor measuring cup from Tesco!

Thanks Defstar too!

I'll get some pics up of the scaled down DC-15s I built too.
