Sky Captain Dex Custom Gun

Hey guys, I've been looking around to have a custom prop made similar to the gun from "Sky Captain and the world of tomorrow". I have included a picture below. Now I know they made replicas of this but they are long out of production so what I'm looking for is a maker to help me bring this idea to life. It's for a costume and I'd like the lights, and maybe even the sound to work. I've looked around on Etsy but I've not had any luck. Can anyone make any suggestions? Thanks.

It's possible I may be able to model it in 3D to have printed.
Do you have any dimensions to work from?

Jamie

Funnily enough I found the same reference from the propstore auction on a Google search this morning.

I'm thinking, 3D print the ray gun to then be finished with silver automotive paint, weathered with an acrylic wash and real rivets.
 
Is there still interest in this Ray gun?
I have pretty much finished modelling it in 3D. I will post photos when I get in from work.
 
I would be interested in this. Always liked that gun and pulpy sci-fi style items.

I'm going to start a separate thread to document my build, you'll be able to follow progress on the prop there and any potential run of kits or builds that I may do.

Thanks
