hairball[501st] Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 i will apply some weathering when its assembled, but minimal. Also thinking about some applying high gloss clear paint to the trigger-stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The5thHorseman[TK] Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Nice work so far! I love the fact you're painting your parts as long as you finished them, i think it's the easier way to go. The only things few things that could have been better are: - when you hollowed the stock you took too much out for me. In fact the hollowed area consists in two different parts fitted into each other but the indentation is present only on the outer part (i did the same mistake ). But don't worry, nobody will noticed that, especially once painted . Or if your skilled with bondo/milliput you can still resculpt it. - And the front sight could be narrower and the top should be a little oblique and not straight. Very minor flaws so don't bother too much, it's just me being being perfectionist Keep one like that!

The5thHorseman[TK] Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) I've already heard of this type of putty used in model making but i've never used it personally. I think it's mainly used for filling small gaps/interstices so i guess it should do the job Edited December 10, 2013 by The5thHorseman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnie_DK[TK] Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 You could try Green Stuff maybe. You can find it in any store that sell Games Workshop products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairball[501st] Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 made some lenses for the scope today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairball[501st] Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) whats the correct placement of the scope? there are so many variations... i also read that the high between the rail are around 5-6 mm. Is the bend on the rail(ironsight) also a must? Edited December 10, 2013 by hairball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hairball[501st] Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) dummy rail, what do you guys think? Edited December 10, 2013 by hairball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The5thHorseman[TK] Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 In fact the rail should be one solid piece (except for the counter bracket which can be apart). But i think it's ok for a basic approval as it is right now See this thread if you want, it helped me a lot to do mine: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/4697-howto-make-a-metal-scope-rail-counter-bracket/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
