more gen goodness, final draft

Post by neckyzips »

you have seen this one before, but this is its final product, and will be heading back across shortly.
its been a long road as with any of these, handmade parts to get that exact look and fit.
she started life as a old VDB build, and came for a face lift and some new duds!
the case reshape and even out was just the start, then it went crazy with the addition of sourced and
on hand gen parts to make this a one of a kind!

i like parts!

Gen dial!

And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black."
