A prop replica of a prop replica. Propception.
Got some sanding done today. The front cartridge is being printed on my Anycubic Photon at the moment, so there will be very little clean up of that piece.
Here's the freshly printed front cartridge, added to the build.
Might mask off a few areas besides the "LEDs" to leave the Amber color show through.
Any ideas??

Printed the window to fill the open slot at the rear of the receiver.
Obviously I took liberties with this piece but I won't be glueing it in place.

Apropos of nothing I've never thought BR and Alien were directly linked. . . like your work tho
Thanks man! Its not 100%, but seeing as they are both Ridley Scott movies, the Prometheus Blu-ray special features has a logs from Peter Weyland, showing that he used to work under Tyrell.
Again, it's not fully cannon, but it's a small detail that I know Adam is fond of.

Nice project, one day I hope people will make a replica prop of your replica of the replica prop of the BladeRunner prop
That would be great! Hopefully if they do, this thread will be of use to them.
Now to sand the crap out of it.

There's also a knockoff called the "Galactronic Gun" with an identical handle. I managed to snag one off eBay a few weeks ago for under $40.

Spotted it!! Someone on Facebook sent me the link to that. No spare funds at the time, but do plan on picking one up for another build. Preferably with the numbers printed on the grip.
I actually still have my Super Thur from my childhood. It has the original handle/ grip in question. I don't have any mold making skills, but I'd be willing to lend my gun to someone that does in order to make a mold of the handle. Just a thought if anyone is interested.
I'd love to have a go off it, but I'm living in Ireland, so it would probably be a bit of hassle.
Few small details and I should be done. Just did a mock up with the paint, as I'm pretty impatient.
Really happy with this so far. Love the look and the feel of it.
