Fire Extinguisher

Yes, it's gonna be a weapon, when you fill it with gasoline and put a Zippo in front of it..

1636polies.. D:
I know I should optimize while I model and not after the whole model is finished, but well..
I still gotta optimize..

Its looking alright, but are they usually not thicker?

Have a look.

It's loosely based on that one:

it realy depends what type it is.

The model seems ok, but I’m a bit taken by the concept. How would you go about emptying out, then refilling a fire extinguisher with enough pressure for it to make a flame thrower? Holding a Zippo in front of the expansive spray nozzle would surely douse your hand and the lighter in gas as well. Also, gas is more explosive than flammable. Kerosene or lighter fluid put in a Super Soaker (water gun) would be more feasible and easily accomplished. Even an aerosol can and a lighter makes more sense.

hahah, he's right, I couldn't help myself!

We used to prat around with powder fire extinguisher's at work. (I know childish

), dont know about filling with petrol but, a car valve on a compressor can certainly refill the pressure. Then we could have second time around with the same powder.
Btw: good extinguisher, and not all are fat. Carbon dioxide one's are the same size/ shape as that.

To be honest, I actually did not think about how complicated it'd be to fill gasoline into a fire extinguisher before I started modeling this..
