Didn't quite get the sanding right on the sight so need some more green stuff there. Need to tidy up from glue overspill. Found the perfect sized tube to cut, the spring is not going quite so well!
-
Made a bit more progress over the weekend, unfortunately some family stuff has come up so I can't dedicate as much time as I would like but I've got most bits glued in place now
-
Thanks, I can't wait to get started! I'm constantly referring to that, I find it difficult to see the details sometimes once its all been painted up thoughFirst of all: Congrats on your BBB day!
You might want to have a look at the FISD E-11 Blaster Reference. That will answer this question and give you additional inspiration for your build. In the chapter #32 Downloads you will find the whole content as printable PDF.

What way do I put these on?
-
Not quite sure on a couple of bits here....
Does this just glue on here like this?
-
It certainly is
-
Hopefully i can get more done this bank holiday weekend as I got my BBB today!

The handle screw is nice and flush now. Ive also glued 1 of the guards in place and pinned and glued the grip to the barrel.
-
Nice work guys, some top tips there for me to think about

Oh wow thanks Dan, I musunderstood the CRL then.
The doopydoos one will be fine for Centurion. In fact, the whole kit is fine for Centurion if done correctly. The areas that are often upgraded are the magazine (DD one is tiny) and the D-ring on the back. These might be mentioned at centurion level as suggested upgrades. :-) -
Only thing i still need to get to hopefully get it through to Centurion level is a counter as I don't think the dummy one that comes will clear. Any ideas on where to get one?
-
I did think maybe it was sticking out a bit much, thanks I'll drill a bit deeperNice work, Jake. :-)
Front scope doesn’t look that bad. Good recovery.
In an ideal work, the hex bolt in the bottom of the grip would be pretty much flush with the grip itself. Looks like you could go another 3mm or so to level it off.

Lastly for now I glued the d ring on the end cap and pinned the selector switch on the handle. I'm taking a break from it tomorrow to go to Wales Comic con so I'll be looking out those 501st guys!

Once that was set I drilled a hole in the barrel so the bottom of the screwdriver head could act as a pin and glued it to the barrel
-
Next I glued in the magazine then came the absolute bloody nightmare that was the scope.... I decided I was going to install a screwdriver head, carefully dremmelled at the top. As you can see I made quite the mess so more green stuff was deployed. I think I saved it

Next I drilled out the resin screws at the end of the barrel and glued in 2 chopped off heads in the place, I later got some green stuff to tidy up underneath. I also drilled out the resin screw from the bottom of the handle and screwed in a real one, that at least was nice and easy!
-
More progress made, correct screw installed and pin holes made to connect the handle to the barrel, I'll probably connect those last thing before the painting, seems to be lined up well I think.

All suggestions gratefully received! I'll give them a good sanding before painting thanksNice job so far, Jim! If I could make a small suggestion, it would be to sand down the rough edges on the trigger guard and trigger before painting. The reason being is that these areas will get a lot of use simply from inserting your fingers and cause the paint to wear off, showing the white resin underneath. Doopydoos makes a great kit, and before long you will have a blaster you can be proud of!! Keep the photos coming!

Spring installed and pin glued along with the trigger guard
-
I then drilled the holes for the pin and spring to make a working trigger

Pleased with the progress today, I got the correct screw in first
-
Thanks Dan, I've done that nowNice progress, Jake.
When you switch to a slotted screw for the grip, be sure to position it in the “lock” position (not free). See below;
Example
Keep up the good work. :-)

Balls! I had no idea that was wrong. I struggled with Airfix kits, not sure why I thought I could do this, let alone to Centurion standard.
What's the best way to get that off, I'm using an epoxy resin
