1/6 working flashlight

[knucklefunger]

Can anyone help me out. I'd like to get a 1/6 working flashlight for my custom Anton from Night Watch & Day Watch.
Thanks
Joey

Do you happen to have a picture of what you want?

 

[knucklefunger]

Creech, looks kinda like this. Just a basic inexpensive tin flashlight, will try to find a better shot

 

[creecher]

At least that gives everyone the idea. I have a working torch but it is the plastic Dolphin variety.

Creecher, that thing is cool. I really want to get one like in the film just for accuracy. He swaps out crystals in the head of the light in the film & want to give it that look. If I can't get one, no big deal. Just thought it would look good with his sunglasses on & a working light

I :chewsuggest you can used a mini flashlight . It's very great. I think that you will like it very much.

Yeah if you don't mind the flashlight looking like a bazooka. I would suggest you search some 1/6 scale Star Wars light saber mods. Same concept except instead of lighting up the saber you'll just be using the method to get wiring and a light source into a 1/6 scale flashlight (which is similar to a light saber hilt). Good luck.

If you can get one of these from Soldier Story,
I'm sure you can mod it without the M4

You're not going to find one that size with a self contained power supply.

But that's a great custom. Recipe?

 

[knucklefunger]

ok, I got the darn M4 & have no idea how to turn the thing on (duh me)

Thank you. The head is a one off sculpt.
- The jacket & pants are just basic US military stuff. A friend had made the stitched Watch patch. The tool belt is comprised of a dark brown US belt & german leather pouches as well as the 1/6 tools. Boots are New Line Miniatures & an Italian turtleneck

That's it.

If you want, email Ada, she did the sculpt for me. I don't care if other people get one. This hobby is about sharing info & advice

Pm me if anyone wants any info at all

Thank you all for the help. I NEED to get the M4 light working, any ideas?

To turn on the light on the m4 squeeze the front grip/handle.

Thank you HUGELY SithKnite. I got 2 of the things just sitting there. One was gonna be modded for the Punisher until I gave up on the light working

Cheers

 

[SithKnite]

No problem, it also took me a while to figure out how to turn the lights on.

Gonna resort to using the one from the M4, remove it, slide the wires up the sleeve & bingo, Anton with flashlight

Edo,
Things have been way out of hand busy. After the learning to walk again thing & catching up with paint projects, helping family with renovations etc. Oh yeah, my 6 days a week job, it's hard to keep everything on track, particularly when it's my personal stuff. If it's for other folks I seem to keep it straight. I'm gonna have to make a list (really)

Seriously BIG thank you once again, & very glad to hear you are well

I'm gonna check those balls out. I think I could fit it in a brass tube & make a cup to replicate the end of the flashlight. Just need time. Been up to 3am working on some projects. Sleep, ha, for sissies
