Evening 405thers! I have spent the last twenty minutes on my second weapons build (my first successful one). This time it's an AR! Originally I had intended to make this out of pepakura but... well, I'm kinda lazy and this is a method I have not yet tried.
So, here's my plan:
The first step is to make a basic structure out of cardboard and sticky tape. Take note that this is the BASIC structure, and I am going to cover the finished product in a more stable and smooth product (probably paper of some form) and then rondo/bondo it.
I am using this set of images as a basis for my build. Kudos to whoever I found that from (closed tabs = bad when writing a bibliography O: )
As you can see I've just finished (almost) the basic stock (I should have taken an image of it before hand, but oh well <_<).


Obviously, I 'll need to cut off the built-in scope and magazine before I can do the front half of the gun. I may or may not edit the trigger.
As with my armour, this build will suffer from the intervention of school and studies, so updates will most likely be few. I shall endevour to keep this alive though!
Any suggestions are welcome, so please leave comments!
