I'm going to see if it's ok if I can weather it I'll be on an exhibiotr pass so I'll be in early and might be able to work it over. Also please folks post comments on what you think about it when you see it.

FYI there are two of these and the 2nd version is a little different has a few more details so it might be going to the factory.

I also agree it should be a little more beatup I would like to see a tad more silver on it.

On the weathering there is no silver on the real reference it's weathered all the way to the resin. This is why I backed off a little there are large portions 1inch by 1 inch that is just raw to the bone resin.

Lee,
I would have said a little more weathering would be nice but having read your comments I'm happy for the weathering to remain the way it is. I suppose we're really used to seing the blaster in its current state, after many years of storage and man-handling.
I'd be very happy if my copy looks close to the shots that you've shown, very nice for a mass produced item.
Thanks for all your efforts

Thank you DAZ I appreciate that. It's a tough spot to be in but once more high rez pics come in from comic con I think everyone will see it's pretty darn beat up and dirty and the rust looks real too. I am concerned about fan opinions and will not defend my work so I don't take any critcisms negatively since it only helps us make a better product for you folks.
One item of note: NONE of the weathering was done with an airbrush. The only thing sprayed on is the two base colors.

They still haven't fixed the stock greeblies on the right side of the stock. Oddly on the left side they are correctly mounted.
The front scope mount is still backward.
The best part of these pics. You do get a much better feel of the paint job which looks really good.
I notice screws in the buttstock?? Are there screws in the buttstock of the real one?? :confused

you need to look at the high res version (click the small image on that page) to see them.
they look more like bumps, but i can see them either tweaking them to make them look a little better, or the one that was in boston being a less well made cast.

This could be old news, but I noticed at San Diego CC the stock bracket on the Master Rep's blaster looks like it is made of two pieces. I always thought the bracket was one piece? Any comments?

No that's called got broke in transportation. The engineering models are made from polystone so they are extremely delicate. Once the paintjob is approved by LFL they will go into production using proper materials. I met up with Frank Cerney (Falcon builder) and friend Nathan they took it home and repaired it for me since I did not have proper materials with me to repair her.

There a few members here that have the actual gun and saw the real prop on the various displays (AOSW). the MR wont tell us nothing we don't already know IMHO
Anyone seen these yet?
If anyone's got the cash lying around it might make a good reference for the rest of us

Hey Rouge, I hope they are paying you in stocks or something cause it seems you are getting veto power at MR
I swear i read something or maybe it was on a DVD or p[ossibly hear that they didnt have a rifle when shooting the SE scenes and they had to consign (rent) a webley to make a blaster fortheshots, anyone hear this same story
