Plasma Rifle Progressionby ~Darksamu

Artisan Crafts / Costumery / Props & Accessories

Here are a few of the steps that went into turning a nerf gun into a plasma rifle. I really have to learn to stay to one background and the same camera when I do these things. Next time I'll plan better.

Here and here are some closer shots.

It looks like it's no longer functional since the clip is no longer there, you can't move the pump-loading-thingy (look at my extensive knowledge of gun parts), and the barrel is blocked. It looks great, it would just be fun to shoot friends with a nerf gun that looks like a plasma rifle.

I make Fallout Inspired props as well I made a set of Nuka Cola bottles and some nuka cola caps but this prop is amazing and yes I would fell like a total bad ass with a plasma Rifle on my back

DD oh and if you would like to see my fallout props check out my album I have on my profile ^_^

I have this nerf gun and... Really need to do this.

It's fun and rewarding! Not to mention how awesome you feel when you're carrying a plasma rifle around downtown.

Might i suggest using a baby food jar for the MF cell?

~Darksamu Feb 13, 2011 Hobbyist Photographer

That is a neat idea. And much easier to get than test prescription bottles.

Can I ask what you used for the yellow flask on the bottom and the bit on the tip? c:

~Darksamu Jan 12, 2011 Hobbyist Photographer

Are you talking about the MF Cell? If so, I used a little pill bottle that I received as a sample and painted over it.

The end is a glass cylinder I found at a garage sale along with some craft wire circling it and for the tip. It wasn't very sturdy, so I might have to find a replacement yet.

Try disassembling the blaster before painting— this allows more control over the surfaces, and a nicer overall look.

Very nice however!

Thanks!

I had done some minimal dis-assembly with the first lighter gray layer, but then ended up not for reasons I'm not really sure of. I'd definitely consider keeping it disassembled for longer next time. It was pretty hard to get in some of the cracks with the spray paint. Thanks for the advice!
