redpaint Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 So, I know they're not canon but I have always wanted a sniper rifle for my scout. I've been fiddling with making one for a while but have now started. Basically it's a cheap blaster and some plumbing parts and the stock is cut out of some board. My question is should I leave the stock in a timber finish or paint it black as the rest will be? Quote
4505Marcel Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Defo paint it black mate I would say, in my eyes with their futuristic materials would they then use wood on a blaster?? Quote
Griffin-X Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Cool blaster...looking good! I would go all black with some weathering on the body...maybe antique the stock a bit w/some burnt umber or something. Quote
Eagerly Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Very nice m8. I agree with the rest it will look loads better painted black and weathered. Where did you get the donor gun, i love the hand grip just before the extended barrel Quote
redpaint Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 cheers guys, the donor gun is one of those sheap blasters you see in the cheap shops every so often. I bought it intending to have a cheap e-11 clone for trooping that didn't matter if got damaged. Quote
niktom Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 I love that blaster!! Can't wait to see the finished product. Quote
redpaint Posted February 25, 2012 Author Posted February 25, 2012 well here is the finished gun. I've gone for the all black look. I haven't got around to weathering it yet. Will do some this weekend. Should do for something a bit different on troops. Quote
