Hello chaps
As some of you may know the E11s in each on the OT films changed with each film.
ESB has it's own variation of the E11 with some very weird and oddly shaped greeblies.
Most people just use what ever blaster they can find but now we can all obtain the correct looking greeblies from Steve Tangod Fett.

Below are pics of my recent auction win at the NSC and Steve has finally made a set of moulds to enable him to make more of these on demand so you can now have your own accurate blaster to go with your accurate costume
I can't speak highly of Steve's work, I'm very, very impressed with it all
He sells the greeblies in kit form and would either sell you the whole kit, or just the 'upgrade' kit to enhance you current E11.
I may do a tutorial soon
They are made from polyurathane and are super light and flexible
The parts are then glued onto a PVC pipe to make one super light E11
EDIT
Post edited to show steps taken to make my old E11 into an ESB version using some of Steve greeblie upgrades
First I filed down the front end and filled with milliput
Then I superglued some nuts flat and square into predrilled holes into the scope
The greeblies come in a pour mould so they may need filing down before being stuck into the correct positions, shown here
Line up to check dimensions
Screw into blaster and attach scope rail (screws will be filled over later) or glue use glue to attach rail. I don't trust that method alone
right side complete
left side complete
All this was done in an hour, re spray next
