Hi everybody!!!
While making armor the other day with my buddy, A'den, I realized that I was a bit short in the weapons department...meaning none. I proceeded to think of how to remedy said problem. The next day, while playing my Wii, I devised a solution!! (Choir in the backround and shiny lights blaring)
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
AN NES LIGHT ZAPPER!!!! :cheering Yes, just an old accessory to an even older system that had not been used by anyone for over twenty years!
If you don't have an NES Zapper laying in a back closet collecting dust, fear not! There is a wonderful store called Play'N'Trade that specializes in retro gaming system merchandise. The Zapper is only $4.99!!! A cheap way to complete an empty holster.
Here are some pics of my process of morphing this child's toy into a weapon fit for a warrior!
1. The original gun...
