Power ray gun (a quick build)
« on: November 24, 2009, 08:09:53 PM »
Zis reads "Caution! Power-ray: Stay behind screen while it works", Herr Oberstleutnant.
Zere is only one lever wiz an on and off position. Currently it is "off".




So tell me Unteroffizier Krämer, what comes next?
What says ze manual?




Zere is nothing in particular, Herr Oberstleutnant. Herr Hauptmann, did you find anyzing?




Regretfully not, Unteroffizier. One of us must do it. Achtung Unteroffizier Krämer! Stand up and switch that lever!




The secret KSK-Kraftstrahlkanone (power ray gun) in its prototypical version. The gun should arm the Haunebu flying discs or "Reichsflugscheiben". I built it from a diecast pencil sharpener I got as a present (some sort of naval deck gun) and various plastic parts from my bits box for a game we´ll have tomorrow. I started it yesterday after work and finished it just an hour ago. That´s perhaps the fastest model build I´ve ever done. No spectacular paintjob, mainly some drybrushing and a lot of washes and some detail painting here and there, but I quite like the look of it now:

Oh, sweet. Too sweet.


Red barrel a very bad idea, though. All video gamers know that red barrels explode extremely violently when shot at.   ;)
