Woah! Been a while!

Whoops, it's been a while since i have updated this. Been far to busy! Well theres a few updates.
First is the status of the morpher and second is a couple of packages.

Let's start with the morpher.
The only massive difference i have done to this so far is spray the plates. This is a very simple process and just involves un-screwing them, sanding then spraying.

Once you have the plates removed you will have to sand the old paint off. This is the most time consuming part. For this you will need so fine grit sandpaper as you don't want to put heavy scratches in the plates.


Here's how the plates will look once sanded.

The next step i did was hot glued a stick to each of the underside of the plates. This will help me when it comes to spraying as i can rotate them and stand them up without touching them.


The hot glue comes of easy and does not damage the plates.

Next i stood them in a box and got ready to spray. The spray i used was some i found in the garage as i forgot to get some when i went into town (idiot).


The key to spraying is be gentle. Don't spray on a thick coat. This will just look a mess. The key is to dust it with paint in very thin coats. You can always add more paint, but you can't take any off (well not without sanding the whole lot down again).

I would say these look pretty good.


The finished plates installed back on the morpher. 


Next up is fixing the x/y so it closes properly and stickers!

Update 2 : Package
Well i got the a package the other day.


Wonder what it could be, let's open it up and find out!


Hmm, any ideas yet?


Yay, a Dragon coin! But is that all?


And a Tiger coin!

Yes, Dragon, Tiger and a giant novelty $100 bill (strange packaging). These where purchased from powerprops on a ebay. A full review will follow shortly.

Update 3 : Another package!
Today, i received another package.


Lets open this one up!


And yes, you can propbably tell what it is!


A replica morpher holster!


Looks pretty cool! This was purchased from a user at rangerboard. Again a full review to follow!
