Well finished my first PKD Blaster so onto the next in a Long line of 'things I've always wanted' an Unlicensed Nuclear Accelerator!

So ordered the Hero Shell from Nick-a-tron props, I also got almost all the bits ill need for my build, Im waiting for an Electronics kit to be delivered, plus some aluminium knobs for the wand and a Booster tube (for some reason nick doesn't do this bit)

anyway while waiting for the rest of the bits to arrive i made a start in the usual sanding/filling/priming, I have to say Nick's casts are magnificent, almost no flash or bubbles and fantastic detail, only needed minimal clean-up before priming

The worst part about mocking it up like this was i couldn't pick up the wand and start running around with it right away lol

Copious amounts of Halfords rattle-can grey primer

Im thinking of framing this and selling as a piece of expressionist art, I think ill call it, echos of ecto?

and now the shell and Motherboard

so yeh, thats the build thus far, not too sure how quickly ill be able to proceed before the other parts arrive but ill keep this thread updated as/when they do

Till next time

I was just reading your build thread over at GBFans. Looking good. Can't wait to see the finished product. My pack is already done but I think I am going to order Nick's ghost trap kit.
 
Bit of an update, I've ordered my electrics and metal bits and Booster tube, so until the other bits arrive theres not a whole lot i can really do, I'm somewhat hesitant to start the wand without the electronics to see how it all fits together, I did however cut out the holes in the Cyclotron and and Power pack
