Hi from Germany!

I’m new to the forum and just finished my first pack, so i thought I’d share a picture!

This is based on AJ’s fiberglass body and nick-a-tron’s gun. I have to point out most of the parts

are hard to get in germany so i had to improvise a litte. any criticism is highly welcome!

cheers!

Awesome looking pack! I’d say any improvisations you had to make all worked out well in my book! Definitely a solid looking pack! And having one of AJ’s shells myself I am encouraged by the way this turned out! Well done!

thanks for the feedback!

there’s a couple of build pics at my fb page

also we will have a sexy ghostbusters uniform made from latex

for a little photoshoot, initially we intended to have this be our halloween costume but it turned out to be a little more work than anticipated

Also you can see i started from scratch, then decided to use AJ’s shell which is far more convenient and looks awesomely detailed. thanks again for the quick delivery. looking forward to add a soundboard to it soon 🙂

I like your pack and “improvisations”, but I also like very very much your laboratory workbench! Very Egon style… 😉

So you photograph awesome settings and beautiful women in various costumes including, but not limited to latex outfits… Man… Sounds like you got a rough life… 😉

I did see where you got some of your gear lifted recently, though. That sucks, sorry to hear about that.

:-)) it’s a tough life indeed, but i try to ease the beated soul with a gorgeous photo project - this time it’s my alltime favorite franchise ghostbusters, but i have also something startrek themed planned for early 2014. building those things takes my mind off the stupid every day routine, and getting to shoot sexy girls is nice too of course. unfortunately you seldom get paid for doing so 🙂

Leave it to a German to have a latex GB suit.

That looks really nice, better than my pack in some ways but I think you made the same mistake I did when I made the Proton Wand tubing too long. I am only 5ft 7’ so that could be why I really noticed but the split loom hose should be just long enough to hang up the wand (while wearing the pack) and have about 3 inches slack free. Sorry I don’t know the metric equivalents but you get the idea. Also if and when you get a female GB into that suit for a photo shoot I think I speak for the majority when I say please post them.
