Didn't finish painting this one unfortunately...

It's supposed to be one of the CIWS autocannons mounted on an enemy carrier spaceship that the protags in their fighters have to neutralize.

Fully articulated with a spinning minigun made possible with a little motor from a broken printer.

building the model out of random items like a mouthwash container and medication bottles (a build method called trashbashing), and wiring working LED lights into it.

Adding greebles (small surface details) to the ship model, mostly wires and circuit board parts, to give it a cyberpunkish industrial mechanical look. Rear view.

Ship model is done being built and now has a coat of gray automotive primer, ready to be given the final painted and weathered look.

Some build pics before painting the final "old and worn out" look on it...

A model miniature of a spaceship for a film project, which was trashbashed out of random found materials. Front view.

Reposting this cause I'm proud of how this model turned out...

It's just supposed to be a random ship you see for like two seconds, flying in the background of a scene, but I ended up putting way more effort into it than I originally intended lol.

And yes it has working lights.

I'm starting to believe shitlibs pushing the "distraction" narrative is itself a distraction, to turn attention away from how politically incompetent and useless they are

Like, it's not even a hard effect (ive done it before in post-prod editing), it's just duplicating the same audio track and moving it slightly out of sync. Takes like five seconds, so idk why they didn't bother lol...

Wish they would've kept that cool vocal effect she had in her first appearance.

Yeah, I try not to be judgy about it with others since I know not everyone's like that... but still, it's hard when those were my only experiences living with it.

I guess lol... unfortunately i have trauma associated with people who smoke the real deal. Some of the most toxic people I ever met would get ten times worse when they didn't get their fix, and sometimes I had to spend my own money to appease them. It was a nightmare.

I felt I needed to clarify this so I can assure everyone that I don't squander any goodwill that comes my way.

I think folks might have the wrong idea about my avatar.

I was playing up my 'burned out commie bitch' thing with a cig for the lolz. I don't smoke actual cigs; what I have is just delta 8 (WI legal weed).

Ive had that same d8 pack for like three years, I haven't spent money on smokes since then.

Inglorious Bastards 2: Hell's Heroes really needs a proper restoration for us crappy namsploitation junkies.

I can't see a thing because the quality is so bad on current DVD versions, like they just aimed an anamorphic camera at a TV playing a VHS copy and called it a day.

For socialists in the US it is so important right now to be building organizations capable of gumming up the cogs of the imperialist machine. Protesting is good but it is not stopping anything. We cannot confine ourselves to the same methods that don’t work

Pretty sure we're all on "lists" at this point anyway just for being anywhere left of center.

Western news media: "It's currently night in North Korea."

Average brainwashed and heavily propagandised westerner: "Oh my god! Kim Jong Un murdered the day. North Korea will never see daylight again. Let's start a 'humanitarian' campaign to send torches to North Koreans cos we're good people."

People need to understand that if democracy were a real thing, the worst people in the world wouldn't be occupying every position of power in the US. There's a reason why everyone in office is horrible, and all of the alternatives are terrible, too. This isn't democracy, it's the illusion of choice.
