this build is awesome! very clean pepping. thissuit seems to be coming along nice.. so far... have you done an estimate on the resin/fibreglass/bondo price yet? i was shot down when i realised how much it would cost to harden an entire suit

so instead, i'm using other methods (metal/foam) scratch build what you can, it is usually cheaper and still looks good if you used the right method

oh, btw if your making a sniper, DO NOT PEP!!! lol, can you imagine how much it would warp and get crushed

if you want, you could maybe pep the lower reciever, but the rest would be a relatively plain scratch build, so long as you dont get drawn into the tiny details like lee's weapons (which look amazing, but are quite alot of work and effort), you should have a cool looking sniper in no time! maybe anyone who has scratch built a fair few weapons could elaborate (ie: where to use pvc pipe, what to cut from wood, what would best be pepped, how you could intregrate lights, how yada yada yada)
hope this comes along well, and i want to see some accesories (sniper/knife/ammo/other stuff) soon!!

your so lucky you can get stuff done, i am having a hard time getting off the ground with my build because of all the rain we have been getting, but im off to bunnings asap!
