1911 Colt
Luger
M1A1 Thompson
Stg 44

Make small requests if you want a specific angle on one of them. My camera died on me near the end there.:(

That Thompson looks sick! Is it an original or a reproduction? How much did it cost?

Cs

I wish I had a paratrooper uniform and a gun. Id wear it every haloween.

I've got a paratropper uniform I'm wearing. :D M43.

German gear's where it's at, and unfortunately all I have is an M42 hat. (hey, that rhymed :p )

Thats what I'm dressing as for my Birthday. Whats scarier.. a ghost, or a white guy with a Thompson?

And my thompson is an exact replica so you know. Soon I'll get a nice deact but for now this was cheaper for what I use them for.

do you still have a working camera? if so, could you please takes some pics of your Colt 1911, American grenade, and Sten? thanks. :)

Hey if your still taking photos could i get a close up of the Garand with the bolt half open. The thing that covers the bullets what im talkin about :P Few angles would be awsume. Cant find any descent ref pics of the bolt movment action anywhere. Need it for my latest WIP (http://www.shortfuse.co.nz/images/renders/m1garandwip.jpg)

That wouldn't be a TM Thompson by any chance would it?

Perfect man thanks a lot.

The M1A1, yes. The 1928, no.

Im modelling a garand. Can you get some really accurate shots of the receiver. From everywhere. So I can get it done and skinned.

It'll have to wait till tomorrow, I won't be home till then.

The camera I got auto-focuses and is a peice of crap (and I'm noticeing it takes the photo a little lower than what it shows. :rolleyes: )

Thanks for the pics BL, I'll be finishing the Garand.

Keep in mind his M1 is a post-war non-USGI example (CAI?) and the stampings you see on the side of the reciever never appeared on any USGI M1's. Same with the black parkerizing. That didn't show up on any M1's until very late in WW2. The correct color would be a light to dark charcoal grey.

Here, I uploaded some of the last decent pics I got of my Winchester M1 before I had to sell it. Forgive the crappy quality, my camera sucks. For those of you looking for an extreme "war-torn" look, this would be a good base to start with. I've never seen a more badly pitted rifle that actually functioned. Much of the parkerizing was also worn off. April 1943 vintage. Ignore the glossy finish on the stock. The Gomer who owned it before me refinished it polyurethane. I stripped it off and refinished it with boiled linseed oil, which is what they used in WW2. I have some pics of that process floating around, but I can't find them just now. Anyhow, 2 megs of an all-WW2 vintage M1. Enjoy.

ya the orignal look of the m1 (texture wise) would be much diffrent then postwar versions, theres several weapons in my pack, all the gear and stuff in the photos are orignal items from the war.

I'm going to reskin my garand using that picture.

brb bbq

Zao, its the model im doing.


Hey, Wile and Black Lotus, I need pics of the STG of the ejector port and the front and back of the magazine.

The faster you reply with good images the faster you get the skin ;)

wow, that picture is sexy!

Very nice, I hope it satisfies SS, do you have the pics of the mag too? Front and back.

http://img475.imageshack.us/img475/2501/mp44ncopy6dw.jpg

Front and back are the pin and tip of the bullet, the same faces. So, not the side where the indents are, but like facing towards the barrel (front) and facing towards the user (back).

Thanks.
