This is my first real 100% scratch built prop and also my first post here on the RPF, so if a do a "taboo" please let me know. So this E-11 was build using primarily 3 materials PVC pipe Sintra and a generic green plastic clip board along with some misc bolts, screws, mdf, glazing putty, super glue, epoxy,plasti dip, washers and plastic rivets. The total build time was about 40 hours. Overall I am fairly happy with the final outcome of the build aside from the trigger and trigger guard, the placement is off due to the trigger covering the screw hole that attaches the grip to the receiver tube.
After all the "holes" are drilled cut and sanded
The initial rough end cap
Building up the end cap
Muzzle rough build with screws and bolts
Sintra detail on receiver
More Sintra details... backwards.... ugh
Attaching the pivot point for the stock
So from this point on I really got into the job and stopped taking pictures of most of the steps and just took pictures of "stages" the next pictures are basically the raw machine gun with the "T" track.
The next set of photos is after all other parts are added and it being sprayed with Plasti Dip
And here is the final blaster minus brown chalk dusting I added later to give it a bit more deep grime to the recesses
So there it...being my first scratch blaster build I am overall happy with, I see many flaws that need to be fixed changed and detailed out, but I will save all that for the next one. this was a great learning exercise in replicating a prop, scratch building and creating my own plans and order of operation. Thanks for checking out the build.
