Description
"Grabbin' fire bullets!"
While I generally carry a health pack in game, I never pass up the chance to deploy some incendiary ammo... Which is why I decided to fix up an ammo case for my upcoming L4D cosplay at Otakon.
Right now I'm working on a simple olive drab harness so I can carry the case on my back (the harness will be worn over the jacket though, done in a military LBS style. I *lurve* that jacket too much to cut slits in the back of it to hide the harness underneath). XD
Edit: I'm still working on finishing the lettering on the top. ^_^;

I found it in our basement... But I probably picked it up at a military surplus store a long time ago, it's a 50 cal ammo case.

I always think of Incendiary Ammo as "Anti-Tank" bullets, because they're like teeny tiny little molotov cocktails...

Except that the fire runs out, like, instantly.

Wow! The lettering on this looks PERFECT! How did you do that?! =O It looks like factory made its so awesome!

Thank you so much!
For "Incendiary" I made and printed a stencil via photoshop (had to alter it though, since this isn't the standard military "stencil" font usually used), cut it out, braced it with wire, and spray painted it.
For the white lettering I bought sticker letters, mapped out lines with string, then carefully aligned them into place with surgical tweezers.
The ammo symbol I made in photoshop and printed out on sticky paper, which is what I'll do for the (different) ammo sticker on the top. Almost...done... ^_^

I'm not sure if Coach would agree with you, but I certainly do.
And your icons are hilarious.

something tells me that's illegal in my state lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would hope it'd be illegal in all states for civilians to own incendiary or explosive ammo...
"But officer! I need it for hunting!"
Cop: "Son, unless you're hunting zombies...."
It should just be stocked at strategically located "zombie outbreak" emergency centers. XD

Why waste a whole clip when you can just squeeze off a few shots and the whole horde on fire?

Exactly! Sometimes you just gotta be efficient.

Thanks!
Aw man, I seriously can't wait until July. (And I have a sneaking suspicion I'm going to be carrying all my gear inside of the case, since I'll be lacking my usual ammo pouches...)
