Not had much of a chance of late but tried a few bonding agents which failed so switched back to good old Cynacrylate and it sticks like a..... Which is good.
I plan to open up the jetpack back so I can add lighting and possible storage etc so am going to utilise the infill to my advance and fuse them with a soldering iron, I watched Punished props YT video testing various resins glues and 3D pens and think it's the way to go and will be hidden from view.
A few greeblies arrived last week..
I could rush but want to do it as best I can
Not really done much but test fitted the fins/stabiliser wings on the missile head.
I don't think the white ring is accurate more a way of locking wings open or closed.
I think I'm going to try Wet n dry for smoothing small parts and mouse sander for the larger.
I think epoxy didn't bond as I'd not roughened the two halves enough oops!
Still need to make a backplate and work out all the fixings.

I'm getting distracted by blasters atm..
I found my old Binatone duck Hunt gun and threw a few parts together and might chop it up to make a sort of Pulce 40 type side arm.
Or as they were used in Andor might keep as is and buy a Pulce kit and replace with metal parts where I can.
Something makes me feel like the red handle on the Pulce was rubberised but I need to research that to verify but being a harpoon pistol might make sense.
