Kurtyboy's project updates: 24 July - More blasters

[kurtyboy]

My Vibro-Ax is almost done. Just needs one final piece.

 

[OdiWan72]

Still need to start mine, but have to get the E22 out of my way first

Could not build anything over the last 4 weeks due to an accident I had

Beautiful work as usual! Is that metal blade on the Vibro-Axe?

 

[kurtyboy]

Yes, it's one of Ryan Clinton's metal blades.

I have a new set of stunt macrobinoculars to replace the set I sold. Most of the work by Zombie Killer.

Also upgraded my hero macros with a transition box made from a Kalimar 660 body (thanks Trooper) so it's all original parts now. I also upgraded the Tusken decal by placing a piece of smoked clear plastic over it. Now the image is only visible when the EL is switched on. I might add a strip of black plastic to block out the light emitted from the bottom of the decal.

I'd not seen that before - green tab eiaj on the stunt. Is there a picture out there that shows that?

 

[Jamesfett]

Sweet macro goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[laszlo]

Woah!
So the 660 body can be used to make the transition box? Ooooooh

 

[Halliwax]

Wicked case!

 

[kurtyboy]

No, I just used it because I wanted to.

It looks good either way, great display you have.

Wow your collection is amazing, can I ask about the wood grain technique you used for the Dengar blaster stock/grip it Came out great.

I 3D printed the stock from wood PLA with the print lines running horizontally. The painting is done with a black base coat then dark brown brushed on in rough strokes with a large brush not too wet in the direction of the grain leaving black to show through in places. Then rough strokes with two tones of brown ink.

My ANH hero macros are getting close. The other three are mostly piles of parts.
