Thanks man! Here are some updated gauntlet build pics.. I started a seperate thread in which I endeavor to build an ultimate right gauntlet. A lofty goal for sure and I've already been shown some mistakes I have made and have begun correcting them.


For a full rundown, check out the thread, otherwise this is an RKD mold, I used Quest darts, vintage alco switches from ebay, a few 3d printed parts( protrusion above the darts. Hose connector ect), and what prompted this build, a real eveready light!


I painted this with Tamiya Maroon spray, a much darker red that I think captures the gauntlet color much better than my previous attempts with Tamiya Dull red spray. Otherwise I painted it with the same techniques of post shading with the airbrush and black and the gray misting that's prominent on this gauntlet. . .. . Guess I'll have to probably build another right gauntlet with my new and improved flamethrower build with found parts. I off the flamethrowers via my IG @ andrew.hoyt.rowell

I build them out of all metal parts and they extend and retract manually and have the correct Kuhnke brand parts and real flex metal shielded hosting as well as the 3.5mm red coil wire which incidently I found to probably be a Kaiser camera accessory. Kaiser produced a flash cord that is red and coiled and had 3.5mm connectors. Seeing as a few Kaiser parts where used I don't think it's a stretch to fathom that they may have used this vintage cord to make the red coil wire.
