Marine Film Crew Team From F.M.J

Hi all , Had some of this kit knocking around for a few years . But had the time for some upgrades and repairs . So here they are for now .

    All the Camera gear and sound equipment is made from scratch , from various pieces of plastic including : a coat hanger , cassette case ( Remember those ) ?  MAM camera lens , old 1/6th scale radios for the switches and cable inlets , the tan battery bag with white stripe was made from card and pleather , then painted . The cables came from stripped down computer wire . I need to make a mic with a boom and caged mic , but am a bit stumped with the caged mic at the moment . I am also after a large medic bag that came with one of ACE`s Navy SEALS , couldn`t find one on eBay , but this a close second for now . I am guessing the guy with the large bag carried extras for the camera ect . Hope you like my Marine film crew team .

Nice work.

Cheers KTC ,

Nice figures..

A scratch-built cine-camera and audio recording rig? I am seriously impressed! That looks so cool! And quite authentic!

In fact, I'd go so far as to say it looks better than the scale cine-camera I paid actual money for.

Excellent, outstanding work!

And as always, the uniforms are top notch as well, and you've chosen excellent head sculpts to assemble a realistic field team.

Fantastic custom work Chip and another three amazing figures!

Thanks for all the kind words , they are much appreciated .

Fantastic job on the figures and the camera!!!

Well done!!!

That's a great looking team!!

You did an excellent job on scratch building the gear!!

I'm curious about the head sculpt on the guy with the camera, where did it come from?
That's a great sculpt with lots of possibilities.

Great work!

Well done Chip!
