New GHOSTBUSTERS trap on the way!!

[nick-a-tron]

PHEW! Hello everyone! i just thought i would give you all a heads up that i am currently building the master of a ghostbusters trap that i will be doing a small run of in resin. I built a rough mock up in card following on-line plans and 100's of screen grabs etc. Now im onto the master version from which i will make the molds and cast off copies in resin. i promise to keep you updated on this oh and here is a little teaser pic of the build so far. take care.

due to the way im casting it the cartridge wont be able to come out. but the doors will be able to open!

and i used many different plans to get a good overall average. mainly plans from the gbprops site.

awesome bro. one suggestion..id mold it with out the side and front plates on. ppl with real metal plates wouldnt be able to use them on ur trap and so far that thing looks clean and really nice. just a suggestion great work

Looks good! Nice, solid casting skills right there!
But you may want to up the accuracy quotiant on it before selling them. There's alot that's off on that trap.
Keep up the good work!
