It's one cylinder inside another (with holders at each end inside to make it look like a container) with a semi transparent texture on the outside one and a fractal bump map on the inner one.

Still working on the 'mix' effect.

Oh and that tube needs redoing now I look at it!

Whoa, real nice witchy! I think his suit though looks more like extruded stitching than machinery though.. you will really be able to tell once its textured. Other than that though, its looking really nice! Maybe redo the yellow hose on the gun, as it doesnt look too smooth compared to the rest of your gun. Really nice though and i also love the effect that you used inside the gun user added image

its not really a big deal but you could make the plasma a brighter green and slap some glow on it (kinda like the googun in ut2003 user added image

Thanks for the comments! Tube has been fixed now.

Good suggestion Al but I think I'll stick with this colour for now- it's for plasma carrots really, not goo as such. 8)

Edit- I read that and realised I made the idea of plasma carrots sound perfectly logical. Insanity has clearly set in.

Good point on the armour, I decided to implant the things into the bunny body rather than onto a suit, so scrapped the old body and started again, modelling the plates as seperate items.
