I don't know if anyone else has tried this. I swaged 10 pieces of Acrylic together with spacers and glue. AND SHOT IT 8) . The 25grm round (metal snub nose) was fired from my hybrid at a normal atmoshperic mix.
It is a lot more beautiful in person,btw the round went through 8 layers :shock:
Box of truth style.

When you fill your car with refined oil remember that it has been paid for with blood and guts, some from your own countrymen, most not.

Beautiful, would make a pretty ornament, though convincing the wife of this might be a bit of a chore :)

dude you should get some different coloured leds for each frame and wire it up, then you could pass it off as modern day art? :lol:

I like it when people shoot things that are worthy/cool to look at :D
top job

on a side note it would be cool to load up the barrels with paint and spray
some expressive art 8)

JSR: Good vids, needs some kind of voice overs and then splat sounds.
This is what happens when I get bored PS I know I spelt ninja wrong but I had already uploaded it and couldn't be botherd to fix it :lol: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea ... ID=6548194

I had recorded those from my webcam, technology has come a long way since then in the JSR household :D

You should increase the frame rate on your animation ;)

Artistic merit aside, that´s very good ballistic performance Novacastrian - how thick were the acrylic sheets?

dude thats some power especially with a 25grm round :D You should turn it into a coffee table or something and give it to you parents for xmas and say it was "designer" art from Sweden or something. :lol:

JSR it was made with paint and windows movie maker, the scenes were set to 1 second and i dont think they went smaller, and I never took the classes at tafe for flash animation :(

Also the head shots, were they hollow heads with paint or were you shooting a round filled with paint?

The old style playmobil figures had easily detachable wigs, the hollow head was filled with red poster colour.

Back in the day we also used to fill the heads with non-volatile substances and light them at the crotch :)

That's not a problem, I'm a fair way towards the 300 spudbux as it is.

Actually, do any of these count as art?
Exploded can, another exploded can, DVD player casing.

And some stuff unrelated to spudding I like to call art: Coins* and portrait drawing

*No glue, adhesives, stands hidden round the back, blu-tac, or such were used for this photo.

The damage to those cans is awesome, you HAVE to tell me how you do that coin thing and you appear to be a talanted artist, pretty good considering your "twit" genetics :lol:

Who is the girl in the portrait?
P.S. I have dropped to 'c'!
