Figured I would post a few more pics after a recent shoot out in the desert. enjoy.

Thank you! I may be in the near future. I haven't really thought too much about what I would charge. If you're interested in getting one, we could have a discussion about it...

Hi there, I have not put a top coat on, although I played around with the idea of doing a 2k clear, just to add some durability. My fear is that it will bring down a lot of the shine that makes alumaluster so nice like it did when I sprayed it over the graphite. I will say that it’s fairly...

These pieces were all built mostly by eye, using some of WOFs templates for basic dimensions, but obviously heavily...

Hello, It has been a very long time since I've posted here and a similarly long time since I've built anything Mandalorian related, but ever since the new series was announced, I've had that itch. I'm older now and I like to think I have a higher attention to detail and standard for quality. I...
