As in this image. Has anyone ever used any of my flamethrower models in an image?

I havent used the flamethrower yet because I have been busy doing other things, I will probably use it some time in the future.

I've got a pic halfway done using the twin-cannister flamethrower (or is that just a sprayer of some kind?) - anyway, I was blown away by the articulation you built into the tubes/feedlines - amazing! When I get my pic finished I'll email you a link. Might not be for a month or so though!!

If the two-tank flamethrower was my model, it is a genuine type of USA army flamethrower called M2A1-7. It fires burning liquid.

I had a look at the file I used, and it's actually your OxyTorch/Backpack prop - because the figure in the picture is facing forward, I wanted a backpack with some connections and details that would poke out from behind him, heheh...I have the tubes running into a futuristic-looking gun - the fellow is supposed to be an exterminator of giant mutant bugs. I saw the movie "The Life Aquatic" the other day - I think you might like some of cool retro-styled scuba gear they use in it. It's a very strange, fun film.

Hi Anthony - I can't show the pic at the moment, because it's still in the "messy" stage - but it's a combination of digital photograph (the figure), mixed with 3D elements (the Backpack and tubes, the environ and the giant mutant bug) - but in case you're confused, I actually inverted the Oxy Tanks so the valves/connections sit at the top and are higher than the figure's shoulders...a bit like the Ghostbusters backpacks I guess? But anyway, it allows me to show all that lovely detail! I'll certainly mail you a copy (or at least a link) when I I get it finished - there will be quite a bit of postwork I think, to get all the elements to slot together cheers
