Very creative! I like how you did the tank scope. So far, so good.

I'd love to take creative credit for the build, but I got my ideas from a couple different tutorials... it's only right that I give them the credit... these sites are my refferance points:

progress update, I've bondo ed the scope to make the parts flow together better, constructed and attached the scope mount, and filled in the screw-holes... I've actually sanded down the bondo already... these are before sanding pics. next I paint the scope, paint the main body, and attach the scope... looking forward to seeing this compleated!

comming up on compleation here... just a few more details to finish up. still need to attach the scope to the body, give it a minor weathering, and gloss coat the whole thing.

more to come...

it's a de commissioned airsoft Mauser... modified slightly

This was very nicely done.  Couldn't a Airsoft Mauser be used for the base and mod it.
This is one website that has it.  I know it's price but there are bound to be other sites that you can buy one cheap and use it for a base.

If you are using metal on your project and you want to give it a nice rust see my tutorial on how to rust metal.

That's how many do it, I forget who it was but they make kits to convert it. Therpf.com has lots of good stuff.

Any airsoft weapon used as a base to mod, must have all the inner mechanism removed. As long as you remember this, go ahead and mod them ;) .
