After seeing propmaniacs amazing looking blade runner blaster 3d print, I figured that I should start a thread for my build. After finding the files on my mini factory created by Andrew Forster(which are amazing by the way) I started thinking about how to make the blaster look and feel as real as possible. Obviously my little wanhao i3 couldnt print in steel I started looking for the next best alternative, at this point I stumbled on proto pastas stainless steel infused pla which seemed ideal. I figured printing the main body in this and then cold casting the reciever, adding a steel barrel and then casting the grips in an amber resin I could get somewhere near where I wanted it to be.
As I havnt been documenting the build very well ill start by posting some images of where im up to and try to document the home stretch as well as I can. The grips have been molded and have a cast currently setting and the receiver is sitting waiting for the second half of the silicone to set.
