This is my take on a BSG (RDM) Colonial sidearm. It started life as a £1 toy gun
After I repainted the grip
All of the materials I used for the conversion were cardboard and a couple of engine exhausts from a scrap model kit
There is a full build thread on the site if your interested. http://www.therpf.com/f9/custom-bsg-blaster-174984/

The Hammer - love the finish you've got on the final version! Looks superb seeing the difference between the before and after pics.
Zodiac, very cool reactor! I love it when people add that extra touch to some props with lights and such.
Lflank - nice budget flamethrower.
I'm a big Alien/Aliens/etc. fan, so anything from them makes me smile! My holy grail would be an M41-A, but somehow I haven't yet summoned the enthusiasm since there are so many great ones out there, I don't feel like I would be adding much... One thing I liked with doing the Farscape pistol is that they're pretty rare, so it feels that much more fun doing one (Like your flamethrower, you don't see that many of those!).

Some kitbashed parts, pvc pipe, sheet sintra. It lights up and blinks.
A weekend build for probably $5 if even that.
Before the hand guard.

Some very interesting things in this thread, very inspirational. Joined up so hopefully I can join in and try my hand at some things that can impress without costing a fortune because I don't have a very big budget to work with. It amazes me how people can see such fantastic objects in a box of junk or the junk drawer or the junk store. I must practice on training my eye.

Not much to speak of, but I made these... gloves? gauntlets? Whatever you want to call them for a halloween costume a few years back, out of winter gloves, paintball fingerless gloves, glassworkers sleeves, wire, tape, JB Weld, and a whooooooole lotta scrap metal. I already had all of it, only thing it cost me was a couple bucks for some paint.
Sorry about the bad pictures :x
Here's hoping future projects turn out less shoddy looking...

Wow, that's spot on. Well done.
Hope this is applicable. Made from scrap styrene, scrap foam board, clear plastic from a strawberry package, a battery-powered string of Christmas lights, a couple of business cards, and cardboard from an empty cereal box. Blue spray paint left over from a previous project.
thats effing awesome!!!
