Sadly this is a prop that for the time being is going to be on the shelf waiting for assembly, as I have things of higher priority ahead of it, such as finishing off the run of handles for the 7th Doctor's umbrella I'm making, and the small level of work I need to perform on my Proton Pack before I attend MCM Expo on Halloween.
Still, it's one I'm eagerly anticipating starting work on:
The shell is one of Guntakella's. At first I thought they were rather pricey, but having handled it my hand, I have to say it is a superb piece of craftmanship. The two halves of the shell slot together beautifully, and hold together without the need for glues or screws, although it will be screwed together when it's finished. I purchased this shell from Crix for £56, the wings pictured are gbdan's, and probably won't be in the final prop.
I also purchased one of Hyperdyne's PKE light kits from noslliT, and it's awesome. I'm aware of must of the public-noted issues that have so far been documented with Hyperdyne's kit, so I think I'm going into that pretty well educated… the lighting kit was £162.
