Looks great so far! I can't wait to see the final product. I'm hoping to build a couple of prop-weapons from Borderlands 2 for cosplay and conventions, and this is great inspiration!

A week and a half ago I received delivery of my new toy, a Mendel90 3D printer kit. It took about 20 hours to assemble and about another 8 to configure, but it's now working well. Been mostly printing small figures and trinkets, but thought this weekend I'd try printing something more challenging. So I found a complete printable Sword of Omens on Thingiverse and couldn't believe my luck, I've wanted one since I was a kid. So far I've printed and assembled the handle and one piece of the blade. But I'll probably make the blade from a piece of wood rather than 6 printed pieces, it'll look nicer.
So I now need to get back into 3D modelling, probably using Sketchup or Blender. Then I'll be able to print parts for the Hellfire, like the sight and trigger.

You may have all ready seen this, but someone has printed an entire Slagga SMG in different sections.Making prop weapons/shields/mods from 3D printers - Page 6 - The Gearbox Software Forums

Amazing work. I'm a huge borderlands fan and I gotta say while the Slagga is nice I think your Hellfire already looks better. Keep up the great work, can't wait to see it finished.

I've recently been playing around in Google Sketchup making the sight and sight slider. It will be printed in three parts, the orange part will be printed separately using an orange plastic. The black sections are split in two length ways so it can be printed in two separate parts and glued together. There's also a channel running through the black parts so that wiring can be added so an LED can be installed into the sight.

I finally got round to printing the sight and slider. These were printed with a black PLA plastic at a 0.3mm layer height. It was printed in two parts and sandwiched together. I now need to print the orange part, unfortunately the printer is currently out of order.
I've also ordered some SMD LEDs to light it up from the inside.

This particular thread got me back into making props again. I am actually working on my own styled Maliwan Sub-Malevolent Grace. I can't wait to see more progress on this, Jonny.
Wow, a Pepa Maliwan Sniper... sounds like a lot of resin. LOL! JK though, it sounds baller.

The shape and build of this seems pretty similar to the Hyperion Plasma Caster Bill made over at Punished Props, can't wait to see some more progress on this beauty
Here's the Plasma Caster build write up if it interests anyone Borderlands 2 ? Hyperion Plasma Caster | Punished Props
