Cassian Andor (Andor Series) Blaster (MW-20 Bryar Pistol)

There's a big difference between a "cut down rifle" and a weapon that's as modular as LEGO. Now granted, I haven't paid attention to Dark Forces this century, but my vague memory is that in the game, the Bryar was meant more as a "Space Obrez" - something that used to be a rifle but now that Bubba's taken a hacksaw to it, it's an overpowered pistol.

Whereas the A280-CFE is more "What if the video game version of the Stoner system actually worked?" And that's fine for one weapon in the setting, but when every single sidearm is suddenly a broken down longarm and perfectly usable in both configurations, it stops being special and just feels twinky.
 
I am about to start a kit I got two years ago for this blaster. I am trying to figure out colors. I have a dark copper for the base metal but I am on the fence about the outer finish. Off hand it looks like a flat black but at times I pick up hints of a really dark brown. Any thoughts?
 
I sprayed a light coat of brown over the copper then a very dark brown wash over that and sanded down the areas I wanted the base layers to shine through.

I wish I could help you out. The kit came from a now defunct Etsy store. I really liked their work because the kits were 3D printed with high quality and detail. I have their Poe blaster too.


Actually the Etsy store is no more but it does look like they have a website…
