I do.

After the success of my first custom sonic, I decided to have a go with this one. You know how ideas come to mind, AFTER you've done something? Well, here is the product of what came to mind after I had begun my custom sonic. And...I got some ideas for my NEXT one! :lol

I decided to go for more of a Wild wild west, if Artemis Gordon was a time lord look.

I used a flat black base coat with a burgundy top coat, so the cracks come through. I then clear coated the whole thing. I mean, if you're going to use brass, you need a dark contrasting color, right? The rest was all scratch built by little ole' me!

And since she's steam punk, we need rubber gaskets to seal the steam in!



Notice the sight glass on the back end!



The brass access panel with a miniature door pull complete with nails in the pull holes!



Another angle showing off the lantern and crackle paint.



Notice the small holes at the top part of the lantern base, wight under the brass circle that holds the jewel.



Now notice how they light up WHITE, as the tip lights up BLUE! Oh yea, I'm awesome!



The business end lit up!



Another angle.



And another!



And next to her cousin!



Thoughts? :ohbaby

Absolutely freaking GORGEOUS!!! Dude, you have my obsession for your Sonics!

Hmm, came out wrong and sounded weird, but you know whatta I mean! :-) They are beautiful - I could see the first one being used by Jim West on "Wild Wild West" actually (the original awesome series, not the disappointing movie) - some gadget creation of Artemus! And maybe the second more metallic looking model could be Dr. Loveless' counter invention, always trying to one-up Jim and Artie! (can you tell I was just watching some of the episodes? Fantastic Series, one of my all time favorites, right up there with Doctor Who, The Avengers, and a few others - and funny that they all had Black & White and later Color Seasons - must have just been a golden time for television!). But as usual, I've gotten off track - so back on track - fantastic work! :-) :-) :-) :-)

Well, I don't have that one anymore. I gave it to my mate David Nagel for use in his series.

Thank you for the kind words. My sonics are all pretty much one off's as I just build them using what is available at the time. Also, I am on a tight schedule to build the props for our upcoming series and have very little time for anything else right now. In the future maybe, right now it is impossible though.
