Fallout Plasma Rifle no.1

This is the first update for the Fallout Plasma Rifle!!!! I've decided to do these updates in parts because this prop will probably take a LONG time to make now that school is in progress.First I did the main barrel. 



It's created from a 3in. PVC pipe cut into four sections and holes drilled big enough for a smaller pipe about 1 1/4in.. I then covered the end of the smaller pipe with clear plastic and another plastic ring on top of that to create a "porthole" effect. 




The vent piece is just plastic sheets cut and glued together into the desired shape.


I've decided to paint as I finish each individual piece because if i waited until the end, there is going to be a lot of hard to reach places and it would just make it even harder to deal with.

The next piece that I am working on it the syringe-looking nose of the gun, look for those to be posted soon. 


Thanks to all the people who have posted blogs about this gun, it is really helpful to see how they worked their way around problems and helping me get through mine!

AER9 Laser Rifle Replica Done!



After about 3 weeks and 7000 changes to the weathering on the AER9 Laser Rifle, I think it is just about done. This was the finished product.













               

For a first project, I think it turned out pretty good. Now me being the BEST BLOGGER EVER, I only remembered to take one W.I.P. shot so.... yeah.




As you could probably tell, its almost completely made out of MDF. The only other things that I used was ghetto styrene, a metal bar for the pipe on the bottom, and some rubber tubing for the pipe on top.

I had actually finished this project about two weeks back, and have just now gotten around to posting anything about it. Since then I have already started on a new project that I will be posting about very soon. Oh and that reminds me... more Work In Progress Pictures! 

Because of the fact that I'm such a massive fan of the Fallout series, this next gun is as you guessed it, the Plasma Rifle! Look forward so seeing from that!

If you have any questions about the Laser Rifle, feel free to leave a comment and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
