The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Hi Guys!
I think in the next few weeks I will finish my M-56 Smartgun operator Cosplay. I worked on it for the last 10 months and I really like to know what do you think :).
As a cosplayer I made almost everything by myself, and also try to keep as close to original as it is possible. I used M-42 Airsoft replica (yes, it is still shooting!), and parts for Kawasaki AR 125. Of course the lamp is original reflector 3002.
The ammo counter is rouning (based on Arduino )and the best of I did is a smart aiming system. There is a backwards camera on the top of the gun, and a small displayer on my eye :). It is working ok, but i'm still didn't test how acurate this system is, and probably it will need some calibration.

Very cool.


One suggestion...
(Unless you really want to keep it) Removing larger part of the Reflecta lamp.

I already did it - now this lamp fully operates on battery and larger and heaviest parts were removed.
As I said before I want it fully works as a costume.
