If I could 3D print I would give it a shot because they do look good .How much do they weigh.


I tried injecting mine with foam and trimmed them on the belt sander and they came out great ,
they are now quite solid and super light @ 14g . next I will be installing the machine gun kit to
give the cannons muzzle flashes on the low passes . after that I will glue the two halves together
and move onto the cannon fairings .
