I usually lurk here but Fallout is my weakness. I have limited space and equipment but I do the best I can. I'm working on accuracy with these but these are no way accurate to in game shots. Kinda prototype.
Inspired by Ratchets Foamies build I did a Mark 1 AEP7 Laser pistol from Fallout 3 and New Vegas. The mark 1 I did in a day.
AEP7 Laser Pistol Mark 1
Foam board skeleton on the barrel and Foamie's brand 6mm and 2mm craft foam.
The warping on the back piece there is because I did not use the foam board as a base. That's what I get for taking shortcuts. Was only my second scratch build prop however so It was a huge learning experience.
The Mark 2 EAP7 Laser Pistol
This one was made from foam board and foamies as well. Took 3 days but I was taking pictures of every step for an Instructables contest.
I do have a real laser wired up but its a weak cheap POS
The TWO together.
The future Mark 3 I will probably do a wood build ala Nexxt and Vulpin. Its the only way I can think of to get the detail I want. so have been doing some sketch up plans.
Until I can get into a place with a decent amount of room to tinker in besides my corner in the living room I'll have to make due with Perfecting the dimensions and plans in Sketch Up.

I'm also working on a stimpak in Sketch Up. I have learned I need to get all the dimensions down first or things can come out a little wonky.
DISREGARD THE Dimension still a work in progress.
