MeanGene Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 It blows my mind what these printers can do. I feel so old and out of touch... 🙂 What is the rough size of that gun? Looks large next to the keyboard and gauntlet, but hard to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeanGene Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Wow that seems like it would be 1:1 sizing. How long of a print was this and what kind of printer did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lwoff0677 Posted February 14, 2022 Author Share Posted February 14, 2022 I'm using a Viper Which is a very easy printer to use.. and maybe Took me 24 to 36 hours To print 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lwoff0677 Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 Added some more colour but not But not sure if it's the correct one... Any input Suggestions would be appreciated!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanGene Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 You are on the right track. Ice can comment at length about weathering items. But the main idea is to add layers of color in washes. Washes means thinned down paint with water. Makes the paint runny. Wipe it on and rub it off with a rag. Go do so while wet and dry. Use various colors to age the items. Makes it look worn and used. But father time is not uniform to items. The colors vary over time. Adam Savage has a Mandaloriam helmet weathering tutorial where he does this exact method. It's really good. https://youtu.be/iEaf3t3KUyg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lwoff0677 Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 Yes I am trying to work out how I going to install some lights into it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanGene Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Based on some of your pics, you can probably dremel out the interior sections of the fun. Getting some basic LED's in there to project light through the gun would be pretty easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
