When I set out to do my Luke macros, I wound up picking up a few other cameras as backups in case I couldn't find the right parts. a long story short in the process of building one set of macros I wound up with one set of screen accurate and two 'in universes ones. Which I don't really mind...
I bought one of their Han Solo belt buckles. The mounting bracket on the back broke after the first use. I emailed them about it, they sent out a replacement fast, but I won't buy from them again based on the quality of their product.
Butcher's coat was in all likelihood custom made for the production. You might be able to find a close enough knock off out there, but you'd be better off sending IndyMagnoli a PM and asking him about doing one. From what I've picked up on the details it's basically a western riding coat with...
Check out myminifactory and Thingiverse. Plenty of free as well as paid .stl files there. I learned this the hard way, but watch out for .stl files from video games. Sometimes they're pulled straight from the game files and they aren't manifold, and you can run into all sorts of printing...
Vallejo makes some transparent paints that can be shot through an airbrush. I've never tried it for backlighting myself. I did shoot some of the stuff over a silver chrome and it gave it a candy coat sort of finish, so it may work for your application. I'd start by spraying a thin coat then...
I used to have a set of 4, now its down to one. I think this type of glass making an appearance on Battlestar Galactica in one scene where Adama was drinking in his quarters.
I've been trying to quit for a while now, got it down to about 4 a day. Thought about doing a Fifth Element 'To Quit is My Goal' dispensers, but figured the portable option would be better.
Here's a zip archive with the relevant .STLs. There's only the right pistol grip .stl since the left grip is just a mirror copy of the right grip, which I mirrored in the slicer prior to printing it. The grip medallions are identical so you'll need to print out two of them.
I almost forgot...
Apologies for the lack of updates, things have been hectic here.
I have no plans to do a run, that's just a bit more work than I have time for right now, but once I get a few more things ironed out I'll put the .STL files up for anyone who wants to download them and make their own or remix it.
Damn nice build! I have that same camera body lying around. Might have to take a stab at another set using that frame once I finish up my other builds.
It was a mix of paint techniques, I used no rub and buff. They Steyr upper and the side covers were primed with Krylon gloss black that was decanted into my airbrush. The silver metal parts were airbrushed with Alclad Airframe Aluminum before being clear coated with Aqua Gloss. The black parts...
Hovito loincloth too true. My problem is to get some of the lenses I bought I had to buy in lots of lenses, so now I'm looking at my greeblie boxes and thinking... Maybe just one more Eumig.
