Hey Adam, if you don't mind, can I ask why your friend wouldn't want to share pics of his treasures? As a collector, I can't imagine not wanting to share. Not meaning to be critical, just genuinely nonplussed. Close up pics of the two details you've mentioned would have been awesome. |

He is a private collector and you have to be careful when things cost as much as these things do. I wasn't asked not to share and I haven't asked him if it is OK for me to share them. Don't worry, you will see how things were done on the real gun, as mine will be done the same exact way. |

I guess you collected enough references to build a screen accurate Drake M56. It's time to change the title of this topic to "Vasquez and Drake tribute" |

Like the guy who stole the Nostromo key from Bob Burns house. I'd be cautious too... |

Agreed, caution is advised of course, but there's a difference from posting prop ref pics on a forum vs a Google Streetview pic of their house ...

With the utmost respect & appreciation for what you are doing (and have already done / shared) - Replica Prop does not equal Original Prop, no matter how faithful the recreation is. [Sensible] sharing is caring |

Either way, especially interested in seeing you continue your build, I am slowly gathering parts to build my own one day. |

Back in 2008 or 2009? Stephen210 and others worked hard and managed to recreate it for him! http://propsummit.com/viewtopic.php?t=1145&start=220 |
