Brian's Blade Runner Builds

I can't find the extreme heat spray paint you mentioned. Should I go with flat black or semi gloss black spray paint?

That was just black paint I had at hand from another project. It's not important. I would go with the semi gloss black.

Well made...looks real

Progress on my various projects. I’ve weathered the lower section of the radio-phone and added rivets to the fastening clasps. I’ve also added a few finishing touches to my water blaster.
Moving on to my PK-D carrying case, I’ve been working on a security lock. The idea here is to give the impression of an ID activated unlocking system. I still have some more work to do on the case.

That box is gorgeous, I want to build my own soon. Don't have much room for it but that size looks just about right. I notice that there are a lot of different ammo boxes (or rather different labels I guess) out there, is there a specific size of box that is correct, or is it simply personal preference?

Stunning box mate, bravo!!

Box is fantastic...that lock is cool:cool

Very nice! Good job.

Thanks folks, much appreciated. NeilDavies - I’m not sure if there’s an agreed size for the ammo box or not. I just made it up.

I agree with Candykiller mate, this was mine made a few years ago and it was designed to hold the modded .44sp rounds I created for the blaster

In that case I'll do the same and make my own up and design a label etc, that'll be fun! Got it all planned in my head...

I have three different Blade Runner builds on the go at the moment and I will use this thread to post pics of all of them as I make progress. Today’s task was to clean up this piece of junk I picked up from eBay in preparation for recreating this BR 2049 prop.

And here are a couple of my older scratch-built Blade Runner replicas. I still need to do a bit of ageing on both of these pieces.

What's the appropriate size LED? I assume you just drilled out the cast LEDs and inserted these from the outside, rather than like...dismantling and inserting them from the inside?

I couldn't find actual LEDs small enough to fit. I bought a sheet of small gold self-adhesive semi-spheres from Poundland and painted them with a blob of red enamel. They fit in the existing holes perfectly.
