Kurtyboy's project updates: 24 July - More blasters

[redbutton]

A superb job!!

 

[jkno]

On the MGC E-11 the cocking lever needs to be removed.

 

[kurtyboy]

Acquired a Bolsey flash and made a Yoda VD saber. Here it is in all its mirror-image glory! Real Lamborghini wheel and the grips and oil pan are from Sjanish. I just need the flat head brass screw for the emitter shroud.

 

[kurtyboy]

Some more recent projects. Death Star camera. Still a WIP as two of the viewers are two-tone.

WIP Hoth scanner and a pair of very rare white ESB Rebel goggles.

Added a droid caller to Luke's ANH belt.

And a few more recent acquisitions. Royal guard helmet.

CZ3 head from Zorg.

Silver plated Leia ANH necklace to replace the resin one I had.

Wait...you finally found another white pair of SWANS? NIIICE!...seem to be mint

 

[woodywaverider]

I’m so jealous of your collection, outstanding

Yeah. Amazing. I'd like to know more about that too. I know you previously had a blue one, right? The one that went to my German friend.

 

[Edraven99]

Awesome work Marcus! Did you disassemble the MGC Sterling before you painted it? of did you paint everything when it was assembled greebles and all? I still have to make mine so I'm curious lol.

I have a blue one. My Han Carrerras are blue too.
What's a good paint on these?

My blue Swans were borrowed by Disney to cast all the goggles at Galaxy's Edge

Yes, I've had two blue pairs over the years but finally found a white pair after Odiwan72 beat me to the last pair a very long time ago.

I didn't disassemble the MGC Sterling before painting other than removing the spring. I painted it all in one go.

 

[kurtyboy]

Working on two more blasters. ANH E11 hero using real deactivated Sterling, and the ESB Hoth DL44 using an MGC C96.

 

[Sluis Van Shipyards]

How hard are deactivated Sterlings to come by over there? I'm curious because the part kits we can get are torched to only a handful of recognizable pieces. I know the gun laws are more strict, but the Sterlings were born there.

 

[kurtyboy]

Didn't take me long to find one.
