    Building a bullpup...help me brainstorm

    Okay...I am building a bullpup-design paintball gun. Actually, I'm not building the gun itself. I have rearranged a guns' parts into a bottom-fed design. Now, I want to build/mold/form/create a body around the gun. So, does anyone have any tips or suggestions?

          I am kind of lacking funds, too, but I am doing a little at a time. So far, I have taken a Tribal BBT, removed the grip, flipped the body upside down (so it can be bottom-fed), and 'relocated' the HPR. So, I have the basic lay out (with the exception of the loading system...haven't quite figured that out yet). I haven't watched the video yet, but I think I have found the stuff that I will use to make a mold. I also need to figure out what rifle I am going to design my gun after. Right now, I am leaning toward the Bushmaster M17. Thanks for the help, Warwitch.

                If you are speaking of the "Lancer" i beleive its called (not the p90), the reason he made it is that he is an Art developer for a video game company, and thats the gun from Gears of War.

                      I meant the p90, I thought it went without saying the other one was unwieldy as well
