    Looks quite awesome.:D The only thing I'd add would be Scoobie-Doo print Band-Aids. The ones you have aren't cheeky enough.
    -And the inside of the gun barrels need some silver.

    This got me to register...incredible work!

    Olive drab is kinda my thing, and mini-guns even more so...

    A cheap cordless drill
    will make a nice drive for the mini-gun barrels. This one has a vacuum cleaner's flat belt, but A 2" O-ring makes a much better drive belt.

    Your "BattleField Expedient" case design is deceiving- this was well-thought out, and it shows.

    Ok, finally got the rocket launcher done. Was more work than I thought lol. I grabbed some images off the web for reference, and loosely followed that to add some detail on the AT4. I wasn't going for an exact replica here, so you'll find many things on mine that are opposite of the real thing.
    [​IMG]

    I made up some graphics in Illustrator and printed them out on label paper.
    [​IMG]

    After painting the AT4, I stuck the graphics on in their appropriate places.
    [​IMG]

    Love the aiming instructions lol.
    [​IMG]

    Finished the detailing and mounted the AT4 on the case.
    [​IMG]

    I could have gone much more into detail, but just didn't have the time.

    So here's the case in its entirety as it sits right now. The only thing I'm missing is the vinyl graphic for the right side panel. That's being printed as I type this and I'll be able to go pick it up after work today. :)

    I dressed up the top IO cables a bit since there was no real way to hide them. I think they actually add to the look rather than take away from it.

    There were a few other items I couldn't get on the case, like the claymore feet. Some initial ideas just don't come to fruition due to time, feasibility, or whatever. Also my plan to use a servo to spin the minigun didn't go very well. The belt kept slipping, and I think it would spin too slowly anyway. Then I remembered killbucket's suggestion above, so I temporarily hooked up my cordless drill to it and it spins quite nicely. :) Will post a quick video of it later on.

    Picked up the vinyl graphic yesterday and applied it to the back side panel last night. Came out nice!

    I basically combined numerous images I found online to get the final composition. I searched many wallpaper sites to try and get the highest resolution pics I could to avoid any pixelation. I managed to get a 20" x 21" image at 150dpi.

    And with the side panel on the case.
    [​IMG]

    I also added the Tt logo subtly in the background. :)

    And a final shot. Looking at it now, I wish I would have continued the vinyl onto the side of the front panel so the entire side would be covered, but oh well.

    Coming up shortly will be a quick video of the spinning minigun. Stay tuned! :)

    Thanks pOPe.

    I'd also like to thank Geno and DarthBeavis for giving me the idea and inspiration for the minigun. You really should check out his worklog to see what a REAL badass minigun looks like. Mine is just a pea shooter compared to that lol. (yes I have minigun envy). :)
