OK I follow you know I was considering the elbow scoop a gap.

Alas you won't see the results per se - at least not if we do it right! It's all back end stuff but rest assured it will keep your FISD experience rocking!

@ Rich - I don't get what you mean by NO bicep-forearm gap? This is the only pic of all the screen shots above in which there isn't a forearm gap?

Great pics Charlie - if only they hadn't painted over the parts to make all the props!

My brother lives in Montreal! He's not a huge SW fan but I might be able to sweet talk him into getting some good close ups of that mouse droid and ESB lid for us... When does the exhibit close?

Good Luck!

Does this mean you simply bent the knee ammo pack by flex and affixed it? I notice the gaps between boxes don't show any signs of using the paint stick bend method. Did you apply heat at all?

Thanks for posting these! Both have pluses and minuses in different areas, but for me the Hyperfirm wins over all. From a distance it just looks more convincing.

On the plus side it's very realistic weathering - it's great paint work

Good work! The weathering looks great but maybe knock it down just a little bit?

This is a great tutorial - especially for making power cylinders. Awesome work on such detailed descriptions and photography. I wait with baited breath for the next instalment...

What was it?

The random find is the best! Most everything I make I make out of found parts. I'm a dumpster dive junkie... Just the other day I found 20 sheets of 3ft by 4ft pristine acrylic sheets (with protective paper intact) in a dumpster!

The Sterling SMG (and therefor the E-11) most definitely has a black trigger - to quote the Rolling Stones - Paint It Black! EDIT: Cos Locitus beat me to it (albeit without the witty 60's rock references)

Great work digging that up Martin. I just never get bored with this stuff

Came out looking great Morten! The rear bolt fix looks great!

And now they're fixed again! Boy I'm getting sick of those falling over every time the slightest change is made at the server level...

Those are seriously good cakes! Happy Birthday Sir

That'll teach me for being a smart alec! It probably isn't a real issue but if you use the hammered black you can have your 'chips' look like regular steel since it was the black paint (mixed with varnish) that created the wrinkle effect on the OG Sterling's. Or if you use both hammered silver and hammered and black you should double up your hammered effect and get a great wrinkle type texture. Then coat that with a normal matt black. I found with my scratch build that somehow the hammered seems to seep a bot through the matt coat and give a really convincing metal effect.

Nice one! That's a brilliant mod with the trigger movement - you should create a separate How To for that. Great stuff!

You're going to need to repaint after you drill out the hex screws anyway so you might as well sand down the paint around the ejector port and front vent hole to glue the shields on. Make sure you do sand the paint off though - those are some small surface areas and I wouldn't trust the paint to hold between the glue and the resin...

Hey Dan, Thanks for pointing this out. The search settings seem to have been reset after the recent upgrade and I didn't notice! It should be all fixed now - i just did a search for "ap" and irt worked perfectly. Give it another shot.

Sorry for the delay in getting the video up guys I'll be posting it soon(ish)...

That really is a head scratcher - I'm on Safari 5.1.4 too and having no problems at all. Evidently the system for some reason thinks you as a user have read every post, so when the js runs it returns no new posts... Is anyone else experiencing this?
