Good job on it.

it looks really nice btw.
 
I guess like a shortened and chunkier version of the FAMAS. But the FAMAS really is closer to the BR55.

Good job on it.
Nope not in any of the games. Its in the Ghosts of Onyx book. its right on the cover of the book being held by a Spartan who is pointing. Thanks for your comment.

Ok here is the latest pics on the MA5K build. The fore grip, pistol grip and butt plate got foamy on them.

In this photo you can see that I coated this fore grip with 3 coats of spray on plasti dip. This gives the fore grip a rubbery no slip grip. Plus the foamy tends to soak up some of the spray making it more hard and rubber like. all of the foamy sections of this build will be getting this treatment.

Here you can see the bolt carrier glued in place and the foamy grip insert on the pistol grip.

Close up of the bolt carrier its hard to see but I streaked the bolt carrier with silver paint to give the appearance of heavy use. Just below it a small registration plate. It didn't turn out well and I plan on remaking it, This one says "Earth Armory #13 Detroit MI 000001". You didn't think we just built autos here did you? lol

Dude, that is freakin' ozzy! Can't say that I like it more than the AR, but this is a great alternative. Possibly the best MA5K I will ever see. Possibly the first one ever? Great job.

MEDIC! Man down man down! ::Looks for snipers:: lol
If things work out I will be molding this Kannianreborn, keep an eye on the thread.

Rocknrollcows said:
i just hope you dont get shot by the police cuz that looks really realistic!
you should make molds of that.
I should be ok Rocknrollcows. A friend of mine is taking me to an anime comic con thing and I am going as a wounded marine with the MA5K. She has been to hundreds of these and claims that prop weapons are everywhere. This will be my first one besides a stargate convention I went to a few years back. looking forward to it. Yes molding on the way.

MandoMan531 said:

Oh and some pics from the convention. have a great night everyone. and Thanks again to Blinkava44 for his help in great High res pics.

Ohhh... Why arn't you going anymore. :eek:
Long story, short version is my friend cant say yes or no as far as planning goes. So rather than get all ready and not go, I chose to stay home. In the future I plan on doing the planning myself, lesson learned.

Just me, you worry me at times.... Watch your 6 man.

Here is a Close up of handle detail added with a dremel. After some sanding and touch up paint she is done. :) Im sure over time I will add more detail here and there, some detail on the magazine for example. Overall I am very pleased with her look.

gallery_3697_149_42076.jpg


Here she is after a hard day ;) As you can see the fore grip, pistol grip and butt plate are all plasti dip coated foamy. Without holding this prop you cant appreciate what a nice touch this adds. In fact everyone who has seen the MA5K at this stage asked if it was a real firearm. Now I need to find some orange hunters tape so I don't get shot.

gallery_0_149_31836.jpg


I will post more pics when all the detailing is done, just wanted to keep you all in the loop. How is she looking? Take care and thank you for your input.
