Welcome to my build blog of my not so accurate by kinda accurate good ol’ college try Rubies E-11 conversion build. I’m a newbie in this world, but I do have experience in plastic model building, so I guess maybe those skills would relate to this. I’ve built my first ATA and still waiting for my TM hero helmet kit, so I’m working on this in the mean time. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

 

Started off with dremeling off the rail and scope

After removing the scope, I putty’d the seams and gaps, drilled open the ends, and screwed on three bolts I removed from the gun’s body that you don’t need because everything is already glued together to begin with.

Hi Fred, your work to shape the front sight cage is the right direction. :duim:

You might find this thread helpful for your project:

Beside of sanding the 'banana' T-tracks, I would also recommend to sand the bottom of both scope feet (see images in the gallery of the linked thread).

Just like EVERY one of my projects, I start off thinking small, but as I work on it, the scope grows...

I wasn’t originally planning on it but I decided I wanted to hollow out the folding stock and semi-accurize it. Also added the cap screws to the muzzle.

Also drilled out the holes at the ends of the T tracks. Will add putty to make the legs of the T’s taller going into the holes.
