So. i was looking for Westar35 templates for a side-arm and found Kuu's posts
http://mandalorianmercs.org/forum/index.php?topic=90207.0then i saw he was working on a carbine version
http://mandalorianmercs.org/forum/index.php?topic=83795.0and i thought, i need a sniper rifle for my kit...
So I got to work.
started with the original
made it pistol grip, carbine sized
added a stock
made a pattern for layers and accents. And yes, I am using tigger xmas wrap for my pattern paper
no scope on this one. traditional sights, with a tiny figure on the end of the barrel for aiming.
might end up a-framing the stock for stability.
right now the rifle is 55", work well as i a, 6'0... almost 6'6 in my kit.
next comes sanding and bondo, then desert paint scheme
