I'm a rocket man...

luckykaaOne of the things I did manage to buy on my shopping trip was a ray gun. When I got it home I found only one side was painted. I felt this was cheap even for the 99p shop. Not that it mattered since I disassembled it and painted it silver. I have three different cans of grey/silver spray so decided to use two of them. Not quite sure I see a difference. But it doesn't matter. Cheap crap + paint = slightly less cheap crap. Although may splash out on a nerf gun at some stage.
Additions to sci-fi silver rocket pack turned out to be delayed owing to absence of straps, some sort of spacer (after plastic pipe), or bolts. However I did finish off the brass/copper Steampunk one. Remaining issue was that it was wonky since it's asymmetrical and one side is heavier than the other. Tightening all the straps so there's enough tension to yank it into the right position works. It's not so tight as to be horribly uncomfortable so that works for me.
For the silver rocket pack, it occurs to me - perhaps I should add some lighting bolt decoration. Opinions?
