Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Sly - Thursday 28-May-2015

Beautiful.

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Whitey - Friday 29-May-2015

Looking awesome buddy. See.... OCD pays off. Lol

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Saturday 30-May-2015

Folding stock is now attached, I have filled in the screw heads with green stuff, still need to paint these.
Ejection port and around the trigger got a coat of Metallic Silver, I think I might redo this with Steel paint or give it a wash with black to dull it down.
Also in the pic, a glossy handle Smile

Close up of the t-tracks, these were left Flat black

Mag and Power cylinders now glued on..

Will hopefully be doing some dry brush weathering today Smile

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Saturday 30-May-2015

Did some dry-brush weathering with brass paint on the scope and also very carefully with a tiny brush filled in the text with white paint

I went for the "less is more" approach when weathering up the E11, mainly working along edges and any areas where one might scrape a blaster in battle Smile

For this I used "Steel" coloured paint

Now with the scope and counter mounted

Still a few more things to do...
- Add reticule to scope
- Add display to counter
- Add bayonet lug (when it arrives)
- Add bolt piece near cocking handle

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Saturday 30-May-2015

Reticule added to scope and counter now has a display Smile

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Sly - Saturday 30-May-2015

Well done mate, I expect to see this at the troop tomorrow.

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Saturday 30-May-2015

Not 100% complete, but can definitely troop with it now!
I will be waving this puppy around tomorrow Smile

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Sly - Saturday 30-May-2015

I think your counter numbers are around the wrong way, hope you can get the lens out and turn them around.

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Saturday 30-May-2015

Yeh I know doh! Was in a hurry to get things done Banghead

I only put a drop of glue on one end of the display, so should be easy enough to pry it open..... after tomorrow Smile

Great job sir really I enjoyed this build!!!

RE: Altair's Resin Doopydoos E11 Build - Altair - Sunday 12-Jul-2015

Finally got around to putting the finishing touches on this blaster!

To continue the inner bolt I cut up some PVC pipe and glued several layers together then sanded to the correct shape

Then I cut my shape from the same ABS I used for the inner bolt on the barrel

Primed, painted, weathered and sealed in clear coat

Glued into place

Never received the bayonet lug from Doopys... they said they would send me one but it still hasn't turned up... Anyway I got this lug from a fellow trooper from the FISD. Cast off a real sterling Smile

Oh and I also fixed my counter display so the numbers are the right way up!

Well I think I can put this puppy to bed... time to start on the next project!

E11 looks great mate. Now its time to build a real blaster, the nice DC17M that was sitting on the bench. Smile
