Official Completed Blaster Show Off Thread

[Jaster Mereel]

I've been in the works with this baby for quite some time, thought I'd show you guys some progress (comments are always appreciated) -

A couple of weeks ago i did a heavy blaster for my fett outfit. The other day i knocked this out in a few hours time and made a sniper rifle for the outfit. I picked up the donor gun at KB toys for 10 bucks. Cut and extended the scope with some copper pipe. Cut out and stained a wood stock for it. Misc sized pvc tubing, washer, and a few greeblies and paint. Its just over 5.5 feet long, longer then my mg42 with the silencer that i added at the end of it.

I made a set of aluminum westars but my grip is not aluminum.
I used my sons Rubies blaster as a pattern. Make a Xerox copy of the blaster, cut the grip out and use it as a pattern.
Remember the barrel of the Rubies is short by 1 1/2"

Hope these help

Mine is the same resin blaster as TK409's. I have painted, weathered it and you can see the WIP pics here:

Although I would go for a spidey one in a heartbeat if I could!

 

[fettcicle]

MINE! Yes, both are real

Here's mine:

At the web slinger's suggestion I am working on a tutorial on how to build the ESB version, but it'll be a couple weeks before it's done.

Cheers!

Well my fellow Mandalorians,

Presented, for your viewing pleasure...finally, my Webslinger EE-3 Blaster and it's faithful partner, my Hybrid E-11.

This would not have been possible without the talent, advice, heads up, skills, in depth info and help from the various TDH members here. You guys know who you are. Take a bow! Thanks again guys!

Please be gentle with your comments...it's my first time...

For close ups on the Hybrid, check out this link: Hybrid E-11

Stay safe.

Tim.

OK, mine's done - Dang, Spidey makes a mean blaster!! I modeled the paint job after the MOM exhibit pics and the Star Wars Visual Dictionary.

Here are a few pics of my new scratch built ESB rifle. I built the entire thing from scratch (except the pistol grip which I bout, and scope). I would love to know what you guys think..sorry if the pics are a little fuzzy

I ran a search and came up with nothing.

Could someone give me a little help with how to attach a scope to the barrel of your gun ESB style. I know about the blaster/scope blocks and if i can get my hands on some i will, if not i'll make something similiar. But I really dont know the order to put things on and how to attach the scope. Anyone help will be very much appreciated.

try this: http://www.jedi-academy.com/fett_rifle1.html

it may not be totally accurate but its a great start.i used some of thier ideas for mine and its starting to look pretty good.i think the best thing to do is use it as a guide.study what ESB rifle pics that are out there and take a look at some members ESB blasters.there are some really awesome ones in here.

good luck.

Here's some pics:

I lightly sanded the blaster first, primered the whole thing and gave it a few coats of black. Then i gently misted it with some chrome paint to lighten it. The scratches were done by carefully scrape it with a paper knife and a silver pen. Rust were done with Gouache color and my index finger

Let me know what you think.

Thanks, Mikael

Hi, this is my first post to this forum. I have been a 'lurker' for a few weeks now. I have just completed (more or less) a completely new blaster design based on the E-33. This blaster is BIGGER.

I just put up my website with lots of detailed pics, blueprints and a tutorial. Check it out:

Click on the Boba face.

There's not much else on the web page, but I am also working on a scratch-built helmet tutorial. I should have it up in a few weeks.

Just an update...I just repainted my blaster after looking at the real Webley at a Football game in Columbus GA, where the GA 501st were present at the opening ceremony. This guy was dressed as Boba Fett ROTJ, and he had a real Webley configured as a ROTJ blaster.

He told me (actually, he sold me the paint he used) which was a TAMIYA TS-38 Gun Metal, a Japanese brand of spray paint. It made a great difference on my blaster, and it looks even more real than before.

This paint you could use two coats and you don't even need a sealer for it, and dries really quick. It comes in a 100ml can just like the Testors/Model Master brand, which you'd probably need two cans just in case. I love it, specially the way it came out....fantastic! Posting pics really soon.

Robert, sounds great! Can't wait to see those pics!!!

 

[DarthVader1]

Here they are,

It gives the blaster a dark-grey, dark-silverish looking effect to it, which makes it look like a real Webley when you have it for the first time. I'm not sure about weathering this one, even though I have a spray can left for emergencies, but it looks so good like that now...I love it!

Here is a blaster that I am working on at the moment. It has three different barrels. The one below is the one I am working on now. It is for my custom mandalore. I started to paint today. The grip plates are going to be black acrylic I think. Not quite sure yet. I mite paint them fire red to match my helmet color scheme.

UPDATE 23rd Oct

Blaster finally finished and painted
Heres some pics below but i still think it needs more weathering and rusting effect added.
Im in two mind to paint the wooden stock black, please give your comments.

UPDATE 16th Oct

Well ive moved the scope last weekend and did some bondoing last night.
Also got the undercoat done and silver base coat also.
But i ran out of black spray late last night and have got 95% of the black done on the blaster.

But should i paint the wooden stock or stain it?????

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

UPDATE SUNDAY 5th Oct

Well ive manage to cut the scopes attachment in half which has enabled me to position the scope in the correct place

pic coming soon


::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


well ive managed to get the out of the box and put toghter as ive had this kit for about 3months and have no done a thing untill this week

theres some small resin parts to be added and some filling to be also done

I also cored out the centre part of the blaster end to make it more real looking.

I still think the scope looks to be in the wrong place.

cheers
