Project: Aurra Sing pistol

Not quite finished, but finally making some progress so I thought I'd share...I really hate painting, but I also really wanted to see one painted up so here it is so far:

Multiple paint layers starting with grey primer, a coat of satin black followed by bare metal silver then flat black camo and some drybrushing and flaking..still dreading the marble on the handle :p
 
Good luck with the marble/pearl effect! I'll be watching with great interest.

By the way, I think the buttplate is shiny silver like polished aluminium and not the same color as the grip.

Thanks Kboy! I believe you are correct..I think the butt plate is silver (at least the raised area is) That part wasn't painted yet in the pic, but thanks for the heads up:thumbsup
 
Unbelievably cool. The best pistol in the PT, and you nailed it! Man I wish I could have gotten a pair of these! Stupid budget... :(
 
Payment sent for 2 raw blasters! Now I'll have to make her lightsaber to go with them on a nice looking display. :)
 
Thanks again for the compliments Caymen :thumbsup and thanks again for payment Aaron...these will be on their way to you within the next two days
 
The pearl effect is looking good. How about trying some of that pearlescent effect coat over it?

I also saw some glistening powdered pearl effect paint on ebay, maybe you can rub that into it as is?
 
I just got my two pistols. I'd highly recommend snagging the last couple left before they're gone. Totally worth the money!
 
I've got one set of these left. They were assembled, primed and ready to paint for a customer in Australia, but unfortunately I have not heard back from her in quite a while so I am putting these back up for sale. They are already packed and ready to ship. Please pm for details. I would like to keep these as a set. Thanks
 
Hey everyone... So I figured it was about time that I actually made one of these for myself finally lol. *I've been tinkering with this one off and on for a few weeks now, just slowly working on it between the thousand projects I have going right now. I wasn't completely happy with my first paint job when I did one of these (painting is one of my least favorite activities when it comes to props and armor). I was gonna keep it for myself and then someone wanted to buy it, so I sold it. Long story short, I decided to try again. Here's a pic of the prop:

And here's where I'm at so far:

Drilled the hole for the metal rod running down the side

Then added it with some plastic bonder, I think it adds a nice realistic touch to the weapon
