Looks fantastic!

The bumper looks ok in the pics, but I'm not 100% happy with it. It'll due for Halloween though and it'll be a good starter Bumper. Everything else is coming out better than I expected though.

If you're wondering why TD-4242 it's my 501st ID, figured I had to find a way to mix that in somewhere

Will probably have to go as a sandy with a GB pack at some point in the near future.

Next thing i need to start looking for is the missing resin parts for the pic above.

[ThrowingChicken]

Aren't you something.

[nick-a-tron]

WOW!! That is looking great! Are you still planning on selling shells and bumpers?

Oh, and your ion arm is on backwards

[Gareee]

I think thats the best vac formed shell I've seen to date. Great job!

[shodanmark]

I can't believe I've missed this!!! Excellent work! If I get enough dough together, I'd def be down for one!

[D-42]

I just realized I don't have the 90 days yet to be allowed to post in the for sale forum.

Off to e-bay (ebay seller name ArsonSmith)

Here are the high res versions of the pics I'll be using on ebay:





And here is the only bad part of the cleanup:

[KCGhostbuster]

Ya know, that's exactly where I get my webbing too. Only slightly frustrating.

[Gareee]

Looks like there are only 4 currently available, and while about $170 shipped might seem a bit high, since you also get the other needed parts like the bumper, n filter, and Ion arm as well, its not too bad a deal.

The studio creation shells run abut $70 plus shipping, but they don't look near as nice, and they don't include the extra parts either, and its significantly cheaper than buying a fiberglass shell.

[Shredder565]

That's pretty cool....it'd make a nice christmas gift for someone, but I doubt they'd go through the trouble of finishing it totally <G>

[shodanmark]

Why not? We all have.

[D-42]

Worked on the thrower box mold. got all the way to doing a test pull, cut out the part and realized I glued the top on backwards. The angled part was in the middle rather than on the back. Kind of embarrassing so I'm not even going to post pictures

[ThrowingChicken]

I'm curious...

[KCGhostbuster]

Me too. C'mon, post a pic...

[Interceptor9C1]

will you sell parts seperately? if so how much for a bumper? my e-mail is FieroGT5speed@aol.com

This vac shell looks fantastic. I am currently working with a studio creations shell which isnt near as accurate or as good looking as yours.

[D-42]

I have to be honest about the bumper. It's a good place holder until you get a good one. Everything else comes out great.

[ThrowingChicken]

The bumper looks pretty cool.

[D-42]

Like I said at first it comes out good in pictures.

You asked for it, The black one is the bad mold pull, the gray one is the new mold:

[ThrowingChicken]

Looks like a short and fat ion arm

[zakuz]

It does kind of look like a midget ion arm, still its the first gun body ive ever seen vacumformed, if you ever do a part run id jump on a bumper, especially sine mine is um...foam board and looks terrible. But seriously i own a studio creations shell and this looks significantly better, a major step up!

[XxMysticblurxX]

Yeah it does look like a midget ion arm hehe... Btw goodwork on the pack shell and bumper D-42's

[D-42]

Ok, had to give it a try, sporting my new pack and all the other parts I've put together so far. Still have a long way to go. Halloween is so close especially considering my first party is the weekend before.

[Gareee]

Even without the rest of the hardware it looks fine in the pics. WORLDS better than the inflata pack.. LOL!

2 shipping boxes epoxied to an alice frame looks better than those inflata packs. i havent seen those things for sale this year are they out?

Also That pack looks great!Your vacuform skills are awesome!

[D-42]

Light kit just went in tonight!!

Probably paid too much for a completed thrower on ebay, but i was worried I wouldn't get done in time, now I'm just worried it wont get to me in time. Sound should be here soon i hope.

[D-42]

Well, my lights are rotating backwards, otherwise this is it for the pack for Halloween. I hope to get the sound kit and thrower this week (fingers crossed) and I'll be able to call it ready.

[kind2311]

one of the packs in the first film had lights that rotated counter-clockwise. you can see it being worn by venkman and then winston in different scenes towards the end of the movie.

you have a very nice pack, its only fitting that your uniform should match at least in color quality. please dye the suit, you will look much better.

[D-42]

hmm, i really don't want to pull off the noghost patch again. Already sewed it onto the wrong spot once. I do want to get it the right color though.

guess it's time to figure that part out.
