The Warforge Miniature Modelling and Conversion

This… is… my… BOOMSTICK!

 

Things left to do to this arm:

- Add stray armor plating to the upper arm and rivets all over. - Add mechanical cabling going from the elbow area, as well as the back of the rippa (unfortunately, I'm all out of lego cabling, so I'm going to have to make a substitute from wire. ) - Add detail to the gun area where it faces the torso (inner arm). - Add a belt of ammunition that dangles for the machinegun ammunition port. I'm not sure how I'm going to make this, yet, but I'll keep thinking about it for now - I think I'll end up cutting some plastic tubing down into 'shells', greenstuffing tips onto them, and using some floss or something that I coat in glue as the binding for it so that the belt is still flexible and movable - that way I can hang it correctly.

I meshed in the sides of the ammo clip just because I didn't like having the sides completely open. The top shell is showing a little more than I'd like, but they're all still removable at the moment so I will probably shave the 3rd shell down flat a little bit on one side so that all the shells shift down a little bit. I thought about extending the clip's size, but really, it's more of a slot where ammunition gets jammed, and logistically I don't want to bother with worrying about how many shots that things gets off anyway. I also don't want it going much more vertical than it is now because any higher and it'd look awkward, in my opinion.

I haven't had as much time as I'd like to work on this recently, but with my girlfriend going to a yankee game tomorrow with her sister and me all alone at home, I'll have plenty of working time.
