Well guys, this is by far the most iconic piece that I will EVER have in my collection im sure. I bought this this past week, and yes it is deactivated I bought it because I have always wanted a piece like this and it will be the center piece of my collection.
When if first saw it on Tuesday I have to say that I was shocked by the weight!! but man, having it in your hands screams Star Wars. I bought it like this, but didn't really want to keep the paint scheme;
So after a few hours of using Nitro-Mors it managed to get most of the finish off. Please note, I didn't want to leave it perfect and know I could have gone in with sanding to get rid of every single bit, but I wanted to keep some to add to the look and feel of the blaster:
And after 2-3 coats of primer and 3-4 of black I am at this point:
My scope and counter has been ordered, as has the rail. Im still looking for a set of power cells though so if there is any info about resin or decent 3d sets, please let me know.
Cheers
