MOLD BLANKS!
I'm close to pulling my final molds with the completion of the fully detailed blanks. These are semi-solid and fairly brittle due to being made of Pepakura, Rondo, and a little Great Stuff Foam (bad idea). I will cut these in half and use them to make fiberglass female mold to lay up the final fiberglass parts that will be light enough and strong enough to handle the structural requirements and abuse in the field that airsoft guns endure.
What you see represents a lot of work with scratch filling primer and Bondo to get all the edges straight and surfaces smooth.
Very tempting to paint them green . . . .
