"Bucket"http://mandalorianmercs.org/forum/index.php?topic=13792.0



I've had so much fun building this!

Again taking the things around me and using them to my advantage...





Gluing some stuff...


Trimmed off tubes and capped off. Also capped tops with sculpted foam toppers...


Put this top thing in...


Then I put the Directional thrusters, stabilizing gyro & missile targeting range finder...


Using $ store foam foot balls...



Then I took a metal rod and filed it sharp and shoved it through the Missile so it would be sturdy.

And after all is said and done...
a Miniature Jet pack...


I'm going to give this a few coats of a caulking wash "just a mixture of water, elmers glue & silicone caulking" to fill in any gaps and give a strong shell.

[Solus Kyr]

Completed the Jet pack!








Hope you guys like it! I had the best time making this!

[Durkev Zandar]

Aw man that's awesome! I want a son now!

[Captnrex]

wow thats awsome, where is all the foam coming from??? lol

btw theres someone sniffing your arm pit be careful O.o

[Solus Kyr]

The Foam is coming from my Dad & Intel it is some sort of packing material he said when they get shipments in these are between the products he gets... so theres a grip of it just getting thrown away and now hes saving it for me.

You have to sign this kid up for Mandalorian Mercs. Even though this is just a Halloween costume, you can sign him up, and in 14 years, you can see him walking in conventions worldwide

[Nihilist]

Wow, that is very clever! I love what you did with it

[Solus Kyr]

I would like to sign him up as soon as hes done, as well as myself and the GF I'm working on it that's for sure...
