Tesla trooper model is completed. I will start work on the others. Tedious and time consuming stuff with which I have little experience.

I hope to have sparks coming from him in the final shot.

Wife is back playing RA2 again.

Oooh, nice work with the model. One things, though- try sticking a piece of black paper on the head, for the visor. It looks weird without the visor.

Visor is there. I will make sure I angle things so that it can be seen when I shoot the pic.

The second pic is a 2 minute mock up of a conscript wearing my Driza-bone stockman's coat, army boots and carrying some optics from a Xenon arc coagulator in lieu of a gun!

Don't set the Drizabone on fire; they're expensive! =-P

It might look a bit gawky now, but I'm sure you'll get a great photo in the dark with the sparks flying.

"Conscript reporting".

Engineer is next and the "target"

Perhaps a few trials of some of the components tonight.

Hehe, the engineer does look cute! Nice match to the in-game features. I still think they'll look better in the dark =-P

TDU, you do indeed know how to live the life cheesey
Neighbors aren't problem for you as far as I see, at least if your mmap is correct.

BTW, wouldn't it be easier for you if you just talked some of your sons/friends to pose in costumes than to build gawky dummies? :D

At least those that won't be sparked at...
