montymole Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Looking good! Its rare to see white Obsidians so looking forward to the final product. Thanks James i am working night and day on this the painting is taking the time and i am waiting on the arrival of some more parts and should get it built over this weekend just a race against time as the other panel is being laser cut and will take 7 days i am happy to be testing my ability to work under pressure and hopefully putting in a mod that will be liked by yourselves at Corsair and the People who are all watching and joining into this ::pirate:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
