R.E. Wesker...(Or.. Bad boys,Bad boys.. watcha gonna Glue..?)

Thanks for pointing that out!
She never rocked my boat and honestly haven’t seen any movies that she might have been in… all I get to see is blokes frothing over “her”.

That Adam’s Apple isr pretty hard to ignore though :astonished:, which might be why I never found her attractive?

Drew Barrymore on the other hand :sweat_drops::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::crazy_face::gift_heart:

What… have you seen what she looks like today. Older than me to cut it short. ET was it :rofl:

I much prefer something home grown…

Oh yeah…now ya talkin’ :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
Got such a crush gotta stay away!
Gotta admit that she’s aged much better than Drew… still got it and only getting better :heart_eyes::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Yeah what I was getting at. some have aged well. But damn some have not.

Now Kylie Minouge, well oh yea she going great from the home and away days haha or whatever crap that was I watched years ago :laughing:

Oh thats right it was Neighbours. Or was it. Still crap :laughing:

It’s only taken forever….

Well, I did drop the upper slide off, early Dec, at the cerakoter…

But, he now says it should be ready by the end of the week!

Gen 1 silver KEle, with cerakoted upper slide, and 3d printed L nozzle and Supp, and torch…

Once it’s all done, I’ll start a new easy to find post, about my RE collection.

Make it easy for newbies to find , and follow the builds…

Fingers crossed, no more surprises…

Rome wasn’t built in a day. At least that’s what I tell myself…

Ok…
FINALLY got the cerakoted slide back, from the coater…

He did a great job, even though it took a long time.
Xmas, and all that.

He said he WONT do any more gelblasters, as he only releases high quality work, and the cheap chinese metal took a LOT of work, to get it reasonable for coating.

In the oven 3/4 times, still leeching oils from the metals, it needed to be soaked in a special solution, and then all the dags filed off. He said the cheap metals are crap, and the same on lower quality real steel as well.

It came out looking good, a very close match to the gen2 kele, and a good match with the flat black rustoleum.

This is a night shot, but you can see the finish / sharpness of stenciling…

Not in focus 100%.

Still work to do, its “quick assembled for show”, not finished glueing yet.

The slide is super stiff ( cerakoted bulked up) and will need some relieving, for better cocking. i’ll have to epoxy the supp, to the L nozzle.

I like the look without the supp as well, i’ll order another wesker kit from the states, to A) have a spare, and B) be able to swap to L nozzle only if desired.

Special thanks, to @Friendly_Fire , for his help with his drill press, to get the bottom hole drilled and tapped, to hold the nozzle in place…

Anyway, pic porn time…

1: fully nekid…

2: Getting a glow on…

3: Is that a supp, or are you just happy to see me.?.?

Reminder shot: this the proper a/soft version.

The torch is not the same, but reasonably close.
I’ll have to fit some silver grip screws.
Switches are all silver, gen 2 KEle now is black switches.

All in all, a pretty good knock off, i reckon.

Its not like the zombies get close enough, to pick the differences and complain…
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

More updates 2morrow, as work proceeds, and full RE thread, coming soon…

Looks really good. :+1:

I was thinking last night, if you hunt around you may be able to source a longer rail torch that sits a little closer to the trigger guard. :man_shrugging: They’re all a little different, and it’s just a pity the rail doesn’t extend a bit further back.

But I guess that’s just being picky with the details. Either way, it’s a damn good replica of a Wesker as it is. :+1:

I had a Quick Look on aliexpress…

My torch is 8cm long.
There are ones around 10cm long, that is more in keeping with the original.

Fully bulk up the space from the trigger guard, to the front of the nozzle…
