Thanks guys. I'm still waiting on the urethane ammo belts. I should have them in a couple of weeks...hopefully.

Really liking that ammo belt piece, its really going to bring the two pieces together when you get them finished.

This is absolutely amazing!

I think that it might be too much to hope that you will consider offering kits of this - somehow I don't think you will though - that doesn't look like it comes apart too easily.

Plus- I don't think that my wallet could handle the price if you did - lol

I am floored by this build - my hat is off to your sir.

Great job!
One thing about the weapon itself that always bugged me though, there's NO sights on the thing anywhere that I can see. Having shot all our crew-served weapons in the Army, thay always irks me on sci-fi movies to weapons with no sighting functions to them at all...

Almost there. Still casting out the bloody ammo belt sections when I get a chance. 6 done, 3 to go.

do you use a vacuum table during casting the belts? Read that on rubber and clear type items you have to use some vacuum system for getting out bubbles and whatnot. Was looking into different casting methods and saw some caveats for various materials. Your resin stuff turned out awesome by the way.

Cannot wait to see the finished product. The favorite detail for me is your decal work and accurate colors. Colors are always tricky.

Looks amazing. Is it me or does the company name Masa-Cirre kinda look like it was a hidden version of the word Massacre? Thought maybe Jim Cameron mighta slipped it in as some commentary or something.
