Thanks everyone, i hope to have more done tonight.
Right now the thing thats bugging me is the camera mount. It does not sit as i would like. I will either have to add more to that piece OR remake a mount out of brass.
Keep watching =D

Test fit with a bit of photoshop , i apologize now if my mug breaks your monitors (also note im in my working on something clothes) Got a lot to do, had to leave the lense out so i could see, and i may need to add some padding on the lower half to push it upward a bit. |

I must say it's looking rather fantastic!
P.S. nice looking ink by the way (at least from what I can see peeking from your sleeves)

Got a bit more done, i finally painted the cap and soda can base pieces and I am pleased with how they came out. Krylon acrylic spray flat black and them stippled/dry brushed with copper/gold from FolkArt Still need a buckle for the straps etc etc, those will wait till i have my Xmas money =D |

Nose guard i found off a old pair of really cheesy sunglasses...lol =D Please note alot was left off while i worked on it so it's not in it's top form atm (the monoggle) |

it's a older purse strap my mother had. =) Need a opinion was thinking of trying a different configuration let me know what ya think (it's not permanent and don;t mind the camera base being wonky I only have one bolt in there..lol) Like i said it's only mocked up atm, but i was thinking the camera would be the targeting lens, and the gun would be a personal defense type. |

Oooh. I like that.
Sort of a monoggle version of the Skull-gun from Diamond Age.
Just don't fire more than 2 barrels at a time, ok?

You know - I liked it better without that cover on the camera lens, the lens has a great old look. and that gun thingy seems too much for the goggle lens, which was looking good.
Anyway - that's only my humble mad opinion, if you want to keep adding to it then go for it!
