Hey there. New guy posting for the first time after lurking for half a year. I'd like to show you people my first attempt at making a prop.

I wanted to have a full scale replica of the Demoman's Grenade Launcher, and since I couldn't find any online, I decided to make it myself.
Also, I wanted it to have spinning chambers, a movable trigger and a working latch system, and I managed to do all of those things.

There's a very extensive writeup of the build process on my blog, so if that's your thing, check it out here:

Otherwise, here are some pictures of the finished prop. Sorry about the photo quality, all I have at the moment is an iPhone. =/

Hope you like it!

I think that looks awesome, great craftsmanship! How long did it take to construct?

I mostly made it out of MDF and PVC pipe. The MF does make it pretty heavy though, had i known that going in to it, I probably would have chosen something lighter for some of the detailing.

Also it took me just about a month from start to finish, but I took lots of breaks during that time.

I was inspired by both you and Zprops to make my own, completely out of cardboard!
