The show your custom BLASTER thread!

[SethS]

That thing came out awesome!

I'm adding this, I didn't make it, but it's based on a 1861 Savage Revolver. It looks pretty sweet! KR-6 "Savage" by Shakin

Been working on various custom blasters, both in Fusion 360 and with old airsoft guns.

Nice!
Here's my build from an old Daisy bb gun, universal scope and some parts from my garage.

Did these over 10 years ago. Thinking about adding some scopes to them. --Ed

Those are gorgeous designs!

Built this custom mish mash E11 with a secondary fire launcher underneath.

Ed, I really like these designs. Hilariously they remind me of the Mandalorian props - but that's just a coincidence. What is the make-up of those bolted filled in fronts? Resin with aluminum plates? Really intuitive design there.

I would suggest doing something different with the revolver chambers and handles, maybe something along the lines of Beckett’s blasters

Thanks, thd9791.
The reason that some remind you of the Mandalorian blaster is because I borrowed the front portion design of the Bergmann pistol (which is what they used to make the Mando Blaster) I always thought the Bergmann pistol would make a great Star Wars Blaster. Little did I suspect it would be used for our favorite TV show!!!
The
"plates" are simply plastic styrene glued then bolted on with cap nuts. I used Milliput to fill in the spaces and contour some of the grips. I also had some leftover P-38 pistol grips that I added to some to give them a slightly different look.
The Revolver was modified to be a 'Break-Top' with the addition of the hinged portion.
Here are some shots showing the build-ups.

All of your blaster models look absolutely killer!!
Do you have any plans for them? I would absolutely love to print and paint one or two!

Thanks! I’d love to print them myself, but right now I’m at the mercy of public libraries and other cheap printing options. If you (or anyone else, for that matter) would like the files for any of my blasters, send me a PM and I’ll get a more print-friendly file sent your way.

Edit: and if you would prefer to slice the models yourselves, let me know and I can get you that too

Oops, what the heck, website error - wouldn't offer option to insert quotes in the previous post

Milliput - I've been using Aves Apoxie Sculpt with similar results, it's so useful this putty. I am sincerely impressed at the blending job of the panels to the trigger guard. Fooled me into thinking you replaced or covered all of that with another piece.

Ed, I love your "Bergmann-Study" custom designs! I've been proven wrong that nothing "cool" could ever be made from the standard Crosman "Repeater" pistol (the one that EVERYONE probably had growing up, that is loosely based on the 1911)!!

And I REALLY like the "Top-Break" conversion to that revolver! Very nicely done! And the P-38 grips with the C96 look slick.

I think the Luger version is my favorite (love the front strap mods, with the pinky extension, and the front ramp sight, also the grip medallion), although the P-38 is a close second. It needs something different at the muzzle, in my opinion, though. I like the presentation box, too!

Some excellent Milliput skills, sir!

DEFINITELY weird that after all those "Bergmann-esque" builds, that that's what our Mandalorian carries! Totally spookular.

HMSWolfe, beautiful designs, as ALWAYS!

EVERYBODY has been building some great customs, lately, pat yourselves on the back, ALL Y'ALL!

Thanks, Dann & thd9791 !!!
They were fun builds. Yes, the Crosman repeater was SCREAMING to have anything cool done to it...LOL
