Man, I love that little light in the beacon!

I got that off TDH years ago...I think it was one of JC27 kits...there are other flashing kits out there. You can get flashing LEDs now, not sure if they give the same look though. I've seen LEDs with tiny circuit on the anode or cathode leg that made them flash, can't find a tiny circuit board that made a LED flash...all cheap too

SO much cool stuff!
Really nice job!

Thanks Breyo.....hopefully more cool stuff to come  ....need to finish this stuff first

[Larson]

Love the light man

Love the light man

Thanks mate, I may try for better lighting soon...jp may be more complete

[The Unknown Mando]

Making abit of progress....woke up early today so had a bit of a play on lathe...not quite the same..I need to shorten the back end and add separating rings....the sort out how to add fins and want material to use

And maybe....
Similar


Also got a dlt20 from April storm on its way, add that to the list of things to do  , still need to make a Jodo style ee3...add that to modded e11, dl44, will make a sacros ....few of those should Help create a mythos vibe

Doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooope 

[The Unknown Mando]

Doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooope 

thanks mate ...stay tuned....for

Fixed the taper and shortened the rear...could do with better polish....but I may try a anodising again, still needs fins added
Sort of thinking archery plastic vines...maybe colour indicates purpose. In the comic "twin engines of destruction" these were fired at a bounty...not explosives but tranquillisers

This is amazing man. Once you refine the process, you could make some good money selling these. Set you up a shop like MachineCraft Replicas

Thanks mate, definitely will need to refine. May be an option in the future.... 🤔 not sure how many would like Jodo rockets though  need to look at finishing other stuff
had ideas of making these in 3 sections...steel and aluminium too
I'll try to may a rocket like this pic

Still can't think of the site it was on....called a merr-sonn mm7 or mm9 ...not much info
What would be other suggestions to look at making?

[jett drexel]

knee darts, jet pack stabilizer, imperial code cylinders.... flash suppressors for blasters, leg flares, jodo style r.p.g.'s , cryo grenades.... anything you can imagine really.

Going to be the next tool on my list then!

A littlest bit of play on the bucket today, mucked around making a stencil for jaig eyes, still need to add the two smaller sections in the middle, the dome still needs another coat or two and further weathering. With jaig eyes I wanted a faded worn away look

Looks great with the fade!

[Fenn Beviin]

Dude!!! Those look fantastic!

I honestly think you should make them a little darker to enunciate them a little more and more sure that they pop but definitely keep the worn/damaged areas.

Thanks mate, I was aiming more for they'd be there awhile and have faded, worn away. More a subtle addition and wouldn't mind knocking it back a little more. More like an old found helmet....Jodo Kast style...find some old armour
Reckon I'll do killstripes the same way....not sure on number though

[Jaster Fett]

Good looking bucket, Larson.  The weathering is just oh so pleasing to the eye as well! My first killstripes was two sets of 4. 4 on the left, 4 on the right.  I did it to honor my dad; he wore the number "44" all four years he played high school basketball (i did the same for the two years I played)

[The Unknown Mando]

Not Larson mate, but thanks

[Kurshi BeJahaal]

I love that worn look you've got going on. It's subtle and if you blink you almost don't see them. They turned out great though!
