Smallville - Lois in TK armor

I'm not sure how many of us are Smallville fans, but I had to share this photo:

She was wearing the Rubies TK and carrying the customize your own DC-15 long rifle on a sling at a comic book convention. Enjoy!

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

A lot has been going on this week, but I finally managed to get back to working on this wip. The three squares cut with a six inch hole. (If I have started this here, the circle pieces would fit into the receiver openings.) http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs171.snc3/19833_1124259164957_1781474602_2413...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

Well I got some work done today. My brother-in-law had some spare wood at his house, which is going to work perfectly for those "round pieces". I have marked out the four squares with 10 inch circles. Those circles will be cut down as needed, but probably no shorter than 9 inches. The four...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

I came across a "front-end" view reference photo over on SW.com. I'll need to make the "edged" round pieces that are by the vent holes again. Mainly, to make them a bit rounder and larger as soon. http://www.starwars.com/img/databank/character/jek/jek01.jpg Couple of hours tomorr...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

Forgot to add this: The upside to using those grate pieces is that they help to keep the barrels screen accurate. You'll notice in the following photo that the barrels are slightly higher than the receiver. http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs269.ash1/19633_1117100425993_1781474602_231348...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

Here's the current status of the Z-6. You'll noticed in the below photos that there are two green pieces of ABS. Those are the bottom halves of two sewer grates that I picked up from Lowes. Here's the barrel setup side view: http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs269.ash1/19633_1120528471692...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

So, you are NOT going to make it spin or light up? Cuz that'd be cool. :stormtrooper: Currently, I'm focusing more on if I can actually build it and make it look right. However, since I'm building it in sections I think I can add that "spin" setup. Awesome work "Scar"! :) Thanks...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

I got some more work done on the Z-6. Oh and I found out that there's a third model with 7 barrels. A Z-7 maybe? This photo from SW.com shows the 6 and the 7 barrel models (lower left hand side). In addition, this is my reference photo. http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs189.snc3/19633_1117100425993_17...

Re: Spray and Pray: A Z-6 WIP

I've made some progress this week on the Z-6. I've shorten the barrels, determine the coil element position, encased the receiver, begun fixing three of the vent holes, and had started the "round" pieces. However, when I was using my scroll saw, the "panel" wasn't solid as I thou...
