Hey folks, long time no see!

A while a go I bought the Pegasus kits GQ Nebulizer and Vox communicator kit. I've finally made a start on putting the Nebulizer together, though modifying it for lights. Unfortunately I lost the photos I took of the initial bits, but heres a couple of the progress so far-

So far I've drilled out the holes, fitted a micro switch to the trigger, and cut the body up, and glued the pieces together. I wanted to do it this way so I can add some lights, and also to de-seam the gun. I've also had to do some surgery inside so I can still fit the blue plastic pieces, and to make sure theres enough room for some simple electronics and battery space.

I havent started on the Vox communicator yet, but I was thinking I might see if I can get a little plasma disk to fit inside.

I've also made a start on prototyping a copy of the ground scanner Lazerus uses on the planet, where they find the berilium spheres-

The box section on top is off a camera (Zenica waist level finder) but being a bit tight, I didnt want to spend 60-70 quid on it.

Its just held together with tape at the mo, and the side pieces need to be shaped, and detail added as well, but I dont think its too bad a start.
