Hey guys,
This is something that's been an on-again-off-again scratch-build project of mine since my earlier days in the hobby, about 6-7 years old. I pretty much had it all done up and ready to go a long time ago, but after looking at it again recently I found a few areas on it that I wasn't entirely happy with, so I redid them.
Which pretty much meant rebuilding it from scratch, as the "problem" areas I found were on both the scanner head and handle lol
Anyway, here's a compilation of WiP pics, showing both my original scratch-build and the revised version:
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 01 (New parts; was working on making it electronics-capable)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 02
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 03 (Side-by-side comparison; original is on the left)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 04
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 05 (With all parts)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 06
This next set of pics show the new Dermal Regenerator at its current stage of completion:
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 07 (Side-by-side comparison; original is on the right)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 08 (Scanner head comparison; original is on top)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 09 (Handle comparison; original is on the right)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 10
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 11 (Other parts; still trying to find the part that goes above the scanner emitter)
TNG/DS9 Dermal Regenerator -- Pic 12 (Schematic for scanner head plant-on details)
You may have noticed that I've now sealed up the cut-outs to allow for electronics. The reason being that, once I'm 100% done with this rebuild, I plan on cracking open my mold-making kit and putting this in silicone First have to finish it to my satisfaction, though.
