bonzy's Custom LEGO MG-42/MG-34

Inspired by Daniel Zayac's MG-34

What you need:

TLC Rifle (x1)
Minifig hands (x2)
Levers/Antennae (x2)
1x1 round 'dot' (x1)
Superglue (CA Adhesive)

1. Slice the flat, circular bits off the levers/antenna an a 45 degree angle.
2. Slice the 'rods' off both of the hands.
3. Glue the antennae to one of the hands in a 'bipod' shape.
4. Set aside.
5. Cut the other hand in half, so you get 2 C-shaped hands.
6. Glue the 'dot' to the half-hand. It should fit exactly on the lower portion of the 'dot'.
7. Assemble by clipping the bipod to the muzzle-and of the rifle.
8. Clip the 'Snail Magazine'to the breech-end of the rifle, with the stud facing backwards.
9. Paint (Optional)
10. Finished!

Hints And Tips:

When supergluing anything together, scratch both parts that are going to be glued with a knife.
This will rough up the flat surface, and provide a better sticking surface.
A coat of clear nail varnish will protect paint from coming off.
Paint will disguise white superglue spots, as well as yellow hands mixed with grey rifles, etc.




NB When posting this creation, give credit to me, please (as I have done at the top of this page)
This means other people can't poach my idea, and sell it as their own. 
( Plus, I makes me feel good when I see my name on the internet ;-)
