Props, Models, and other designs in my head
These are in no particular order after the first one. The first is what is already in progress....after that I am not sure what I will jump to.
I have begun making some items (and thinking of new ones) in my spare time. While they are not cannon nor may they be 100% accurate, they will have a strong SG flair about them.
The first item I am working on is a scale model of a Stryker. Yes it's very modern and very Army, however, I will intend on painting it in an SG scheme. And besides, we'd still need some sort of Ground Assault Vehicle for the SG troops.
I also have some extra "Modern day Military" models that will be decked out in SG style. The intent is to make a display with troops in the Stryker and troops on patrol on walking near it.....much like you'd see in Iraq/Afghanistan.
Third, I have an idea and some of the supplies needed to make a KINO. The Kino will not fly, but it will be able to record video...however there will be a cable running from it to a device that should look much like that of the hand-held device remote seen in SGU. All that I currently lack is a certain cable and some acrylic.
Forth, not only was I going to make a Stryker...but was also thinking of an SG-styled Tank.....more to follow on that.
Fifth, long ago I was going to make a full size spinning and lighted Gate. Now that I am in a different situation....I am more settled about making a scaled down version. I just need to adapt the original plans and go from there.
I am also thinking about making some sort of UAS that will have a camera on it as well. I would then have it feed into a computer and perhaps use it for outdoor airsoft....just need to get a new laptop though, since mine is dead. This is perhaps the most expensive item in my head but I feel the urge to get into the sport. (By the way: UAS stands for Unmanned Ariel System the new term for UAV, Unmanned Ariel Vehicle).
