Just finished a CUSTOM CLU ONE MAN LIGHT JET with the extra set of wings. Wanna post pics for all to see but the site wont let me, apparently need to have 20 posts first before I can post pics (really?). Lets have a conversation. Has anyone done/attempted this yet? I'd feel stupid if someone already had, was trying to do something different.

No one has done that, it sounds great! I am working on a white Castor one man jet but its a lot of work. And yeah its 20 posts, its so would be spammers can't post pictures. But you could use a link from the image site.

i dont have it with me here right now its actually at home and im not home, but wudnt do good to see it coz like i said the body was of different parts. both arms were different from each other, and the upper torso, left and right legs were different from each other. no two parts had the same color scheme. same with all the other figs in the basket. i didnt expect anything from that store, everything was for 20pesos. it was a 20-peso store. im from the philippines. and the equivalent value-wise for you guys there would be a 50-cent store.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Yeah I understand the 20 posts things now, I also can't post more than 5 times in an hour yet! Can't I just prove I'm a good guy by buying the forum moderator a beer or something?

Anyways this was my first toy mod ever, Im now working on some custom figures, first one Im making is the arena combatant Sam fights in the disc wars scene, thought that would make for a cool display.

I've been meaning to do this with one of the extra light jets I picked up, but I haven't gotten the chance to yet. How did you go about adding the extra wings? I figured it would probably require cutting out part of the existing wing set to make room for them. Can't wait to see pics of that!order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Picked up some pale skin tone like the one I linked since that's all they have and some flat white by the same brand to mix if needed. Also got a 20/0 brush, is that good for eyes or do I need 30/0?

I tried to see if I could find anything that matched your inquiry. This was the closest I could find (it doesn't say what size they are, but it recommends different size brushes, and also points out that the smaller the brush the more expensive its going to be, and also recommends avoiding cheap brushes and ones with white handles): http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/PaintingTips.html

Another tutorial, but this one covers the whole aspect of a workspace for customizing (which includes brushes and paints: http://www.figurerealm.com/viewcustomtutorial.php?id=28

The brush I got is a artist brush so it should be good. And the 30/0 ones I think are for the eyes on metal RPG figures so that should work. But I will see what the links say!
And the paint is Model Masters and the one link has that type.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

Sorry that some jerk ruined that for all the new guys, try not to take it personally.

I would LOVE to see pics of your custom Clu 1 man Jet, I wanted to do something similar.

You can post links to your pics if you want to, I'm patient though I can wait.

I hope you do post pics or links eventually though as I'm curious to see how you handled the extra wings. I picked up a couple of extra 1 man jets to mod.

Everyone seems to be interested in the wings, so here it goes:
When you pull the wings out from the jet, the edge that fits into the jet is completely rounded from tip to tip. I leaned the wing at an angle up against a small block and sanded down the round edge flat about half way down, then did the same to another wing. This way, both flat edges met perfectly together at a equal distant angle and fit in as one piece. I had to trim a little off from the extended pins with a knife to get it to fit a little better, but nothing crazy. THe best part is that the wings don't rotate or move, so they are always the perfect distance apart. Trust me, anyone can do this

Not bad, its just its been sitting while I work on the Castor figure. And it wont be 100% real looking since I did blue circuitry and he has white. But white jet with white circuitry looks boring. where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

No light change for me since then the plastic would have to be re-cast. So I just painted it blue like people do with Rinzler. It looks cool but no lights.

Yeah the way you described it in your first post it made perfect sense. I actually bought an extra light jet just for the extra wings so I think I'll give it a shot. Most important thing is getting the two angles to fit together. It looks amazing.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill
