thats all kinds of awesome.
before fw made their manta i wanted to make a manta case but lack the skill with curved surfaces, this gived me some great ideas to revise my plans and maybe revive the project. this thing is as close to perfect as it gets without LEDs and real metal, the attention to detail is astounding.

That looks really good! It's abit short to be the pulse rifle, you should slap a markerlight and grenade launcher on there, or just the grenade launcher, it's perfect length for the pulse carbine.

i disagree, its about 6" too long for a pulse carbine, and about 6" too short for a pulse rifle. although the heft to it might just be throwing all our estimations of.

I'm working on a fire warrior costume for BASHcon in february and i'm definately using this a a reference. Can you tell me how you painted it, colors included?

thanks

lol I just looked over the rifles again.. This still looks like the exact length a pulse carbine would come down too, to me anyways..
