Hi guys, heres a couple of pics of the first build I did a couple of years ago. It started life as a BC Rich Warlock, ended up....well, not exactly like BC Rich intended.......
Base theme by DesignModo & ported to Powered by Vanilla by Chris Ireland, modified by the "theFB" team.

My latest steampunk one is a bit more advanced........Not a BC Rich this time but along the same lines....

The Horn was an old Royal Artillery Bugle from 1944. Inside the Bugle Horn was a Bakelite speaker housing from a 1st world war field telephone. The clockwork parts were all at least 70 - 80 years old.
The first one was originally a Warlock. The second was a kit build, but would have been easier to have started from scratch and just bought a neck in. It all worked out in the end though. I don't yet have the tooling to do a full one from bare materials, but Im working on it as quickly as possible. Every one I do pays for something new in the workshop.
Heres another one I've started on. Ive used an old LP Style body as a template and formed the shape using Aluminium. The centre piece will be made new and covered in Crocodile Skin, and I intend to use motorcycle spokes to fill the void and make it interesting. The electrics I think will be relocated behind the stop bar, then the aluminium will be chemically rusted and aged to give it that "Rat" look.
