My E-11 build

[Ditch[501st]]

So while I am waiting on my AP armor to get here, I decided to dive into a  Doopydoos E-11. I have already built a Hasbro conversion. But decided to sell it to a friend so I can get a more screen accurate E-11. This is what I got today. What did I get myself into?

 

 

 

I will update as the build goes on.

Can't wait to see the updates, do a little research as there are some quite good mods you can do to these kits

The one thing I can't seem to locate are the dimensions of the scope rail. I know I have seen them somewhere, but can't find them now. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks.

Some info in this thread here

Thanks.

 

Here is what I got done tonight. I sanded all the resin parts. Got the D-Ring glued on the end cap. The trigger, trigger guard and firing selector switch glued on to the pistol grip. And then the magazine/magazine receiver, magazine release button and power cell fuse block attached. I think I will head off to Home Depot tomorrow to get some allen head screws, and drill out the ones on the pistol grip and the muzzle break and attach them.

 

Ohhh yeah, thanks gmrhodes13 for the link.

So I got bored tonight and decided to do a bit more work. I attached the bayonet lug to the barrel, and glued the collapsible stock together. After the stock cured I bondoed it. I will sand it in the morning. I forgot how much I hate CA glue, I got it all over my fingers and have been soaking them in WD-40 for a while now to release it.

So I didn't get much done today. All I did was experiment with a bolt carrier and try to weather/distress it the best I could. But here is a dry fit for the bolt carrier and spring.

Just a couple more of where I am at.

Looking good, mate! One suggestion, though: Maybe drill out the front sight to get a little bit more (screen) accuracy out of it.

Here is where I am at as of today. Still needs some minor cosmetic things including the charging handle. But I'm liking it.

I agree!!!
