Awesome! Hahaha, I've actually got a folder with reference in it somewhere. There's not much.
Here's what's left of that custom from the late 90s... Pretty sure there were originally more greeblies on there. I know there were some wires in the channel where the stock would attach...

I used to have that one. I would take the stock off and pretend it was Snake Eye’s uzi. I used to have an automatic pistol called the Exacta too and one that looked like Bond’s Walther. I still have my .38 with silencer.
Is that the pump slider from some shotgun toy on the side?

A sidearm from the grip of the forward attachment of a Nerf Longshot, a muzzle from a 2/3 scale Rebel Trooper blaster from Big Lots, aluminum trigger guard, and PVC pipe and end cap.
Nope, it was just a length of some flex tubing from the hardware store, with what I think are parts of an old flashlight reflector at either end.
And at the edge of the tubing, on the top side of the "blaster" is a red straw from a can of WD40!
And MJF, without the stock, it TOTALLY looks like a little GI Joe gun!
Sorry, but I have to be a bit of a Debbie Downer - the picture hanging brackets are NOT doing it for me. I immediately recognized what they were, and therefore they look terrible (IMO). I think the key is to use parts that aren't recognizable for what they actually are.
Otherwise the gun definitely looks like it fits in the OT.
That turned out fantastic! Looks like it would fit perfectly in Rogue One.

Thanks, mate!
Back on Page 4 a couple years ago I did a Binatone. After staring at it for a few years, I wasn't loving the Greedo killer flash hider. It just looked too much like a power washer or something...
So I decided to redo the barrel...
I think it has the stubby, over-weathered, copy of a copy, dusty museum feel of a trash background-character blaster from ROTJ... which I love.
That said, I kinda missed the long barrel that gives the Binatone it's DL-18 vibe... so I got another one and decided to make a "heavy" version of the Skiff Guard blaster...

The pistol is just a repainted PS2 lightgun with very few tweaks. Again, all screw holes were filled in as it's one of my biggest peeves with repaints...seeing superb paintjobs being let down by toy like screwholes.

Crossposting from the other thread, just finished this guy up the other day. Inspired by the same build thread that inspired one of Dann's builds.
I recently bought a tabletop photo studio, and this seemed like a good project to break it in.

Thanks! The base is the trigger assembly from an FN model D Browning rifle. It's basically a Polish and/or Belgian variant of the old M1918.
