Defiance Nolan sidearm

[blueblade74]

So I have been working on this for a while now and am finally ready to share some of my progress. I started out taking some images I found online and traced out the shape of the gun and the details. I than took that into a 3D modeling software and used it to build the model of the gun.

After alot of tweaks to the model I getting a membership to my local makerspace, i started 3D printing the parts.


Now I just need to clean everything up and paint.

 

[Bad Wolf]

looks really good!! love that pistol!!
can't wait to see more!

 

[CB2001]

It looks freakin' awesome.

 

[Sean]

Look's awesome. I have also been trying to make one. having a hard time with conflicting data.

 

[kevinericon]

Finally!! :thumbsup Looking good so far.

 

[blueblade74]

So just a little update. I finished all 3D printing and started sanding, then I decided to throw some paint on just to see how everything looked.

I think it is looking really good. Thinking of pulling this costume together for Dallas Comic Con this weekend.

 

[Sean]

That look's perfect. I was trying to do one by hand and gave up for awhile. lot's of detail stuff on that gun. and you nailed It. did you do the clip release button on the other side? some of my pic's have It some don't. any chance you would share more pic's? I could use all the help I could get.


Very nice work blueblade...

 

[Bad Wolf]

that is outstanding! great work!!!

 

[blueblade74]

Sean- I did not add the clip release. But I am totally going to look into adding it. Will upload mor pics next week. Really I still have a lot of work to do on this before it's done.

Bad Wolf- thanks in really happy with how this is taking shape.

 

[Sean]

Cool blueblade.It's going to be wonderful. and I can't wait to see It finished and more pic's. great work there. wish I could do that printing stuff. I would fill a house with gun's and anything I could think of....

 

[Bad Wolf]

having watched the Defiance marathon yesterday on syfy i just had to ask how the pistol is coming along.
:lol

 

[blueblade74]

Sadly everything has been put on hold due to the fact that I am in the middle of moving from Texas to Ohio and my tools and all projects are packed. In a few weeks once we get everything unpacked I will be getting back on this.

 

[Bad Wolf]

good luck with the move! i'll be standing by for more news.

 

[blueblade74]

So I have survived my move, but still need to get the house and my shop set up before I can get back to work one any props. I just wanted to check with everyone who is following this project that is interested a copy of the gun. Is a 3D printed kit or a solid resin kit more desirable? Just need to figure out what I need to be spending my time on.

 

[Sean]

Glad the move went well. and will be looking forward to more on this project. and I'm not sure which would be more desirable. I would think kit...

 

[Bad Wolf]

dude! glad to hear you're in your new digs!
i'd love the solid resin kit...my 2 cents lol

 

[kevinericon]

I'd be more interested in a solid resin kit, I guess that'll be more affordable?

 

[Bad Wolf]

ok, series 2 has started and already the pistol is getting nice play.
just wanted to poke my head in here and see if there was any news lol

 

[Raven713]

Wow, terrific work on the pistol blueblade. I don't have the resources here to make one. If you ever decide to sell one please keep me in mind.


Thanks

 

[Bad Wolf]

just wanted to pop in and see if there's any news on this beauty....
