maby its just me but i think it says "NLLION" but that are just my eyes. because if you look at the spacing of the letters and between them it works out. also to me you can just make out the bottom part of the first "L".

I'm in agreement with Vos, in that it reads NI LION.
Possibly in reference to the power supply?

I agree,
NI LION:
Don't forget the ":" colon on the end.

Thanks. I'm sending the artwork off tomorrow to get my dry transfers printed...can't wait to get them on the gun. I've also remade the pattern for the little black tri-head screw that sits under the ammo release slides. I'll cast 6 of those out. I've got some 1mm PETG for the screen too and a HUD graphic to sit behind it. I'm almost there on the gun now...just the amo patterns and the ammo box to go!

I can never get much done at the weekend these days, but I've managed to fit the wire and the green vinyl screen...

Just dropped by to see how this was going and having a serious nerdgasm!
Have you been playing with it on the Pintel mount pretending to shoot at Ikran?

Great work. I wish I had the skill to do this stuff but I'll leave to the professionals like Neil.

:$ Thanks guys.
I am picking up my dry transfers on Wednesday for the graphics for the gun and the ammo box. Can't wait.
zanderwitaz...I would normally use a table saw but on this occasion I just ran them through a band saw as it's a good one...I just checked out your blog...nice work mate!

Finally had a chance to apply the transfers. I've just got to mould and cast the tri-head screws and then she's done.
