My son is actually a senior brown belt in TKD, so if anyone is going to get their ass handed to them it'll probably be guys like this shmuck wearing his trekkie outfit to a SW convention.
How will you do the barrel? Foam seems a bit brittle for the job. Too much of a chanse of it breaking while carving. Will you be putting a rod or something in the barel?
graphite golf club shaft obtained from your local secondhand store would be light, strong and cheap.... if you decide the barrel needs to be reinforced
very cool ive always thought the carbiine was an impressive weapon but now you can look 1337 in public with the carbine, and like someone posted before, makin a removable clip?
That Carbine looks excelent and nice job putting that 501st kit together... my brother want to get a stormtrooper costume and convert it into a sandtrooper... :\... it's like $600 or something which he doesn't have...
Oh very nice! Oh and The dreaded blue foam of doom! I used that stuff in Art School for a few projects, that damn foam dust got EVERYWHERE! Looks great
