Old Faithful

Nickname: Old Faithful
Original Name: Nerf Maverick
Gun Number: 004
  
I wanted this gun to feature more of a mod theme just a few bits with a paint job. I made lots of changes to the gun it's self before adding parts and paint. I also wanted this gun to looked very knocked about and that it had seen a lot of action.

The Stilton Shooter

Nickname: The Stilton Shooter
Original Name: Nerf Rough Cut
Gun Number: 003
  
My original idea was to do another Maverick, but the shops no longer see them (unless in clear green). I also wanted to convert the cheese knife to look more like a deadly weapon. But the comedy value of just having a random cheese knife attached to the side was to much to let go... Hence the Stilton Shooter! The knife can be removed too and the gun is still fully working.
 
Your really grating on me. Say Cheese, Punk!

The Satanic Pistol Making: Part 3

First i mounted my dial and steam exhausts. I then added the extra support to keep it in place. I then added a metal cable into one of the exhausts...

I pushed this cable into position, flush with the gun.

I melted a hole into the gun where the wire can enter.

Here you see the cable into the gun.

Front left side. Please note the light bulb i added towards the rear. 

Front right side, to be continued...

The Satanic Pistol Making: Part 2

The gun reassembled after the paint had dryed
  
Next paint job was to paint the grip. I had always had a dark red in mind from the beginning.

Next i added the worn/used look to the gun as well as painting silver in the dents i had created.

The Satanic Pistol Making: Part 1

So this is my progress so far on my first ever Steampunk gun...
   
 This is the Nerf Maverick how it appears out of the box. Purchased from Toys R Us
     
 
 This photo shows the gun after a sanding and small dents and scrapes carved in.
   
I take the gun apart to sand areas i couldn't reach and to prepare the gun for spray. I was amazed at the simple design the Nerf gun uses to fire these darts... Very clever!
    
Here the gun is all separated out ready for spray. I have decided to do the one colour for my first gun.
  
The gun after being sprayed up. Next step is to reassemble the gun.

The Satanic Pistol

Nickname: The Satanic Pistol
Original Name: Nerf Maverick
Gun Number: 001
 
My first ever Steampunk art attempt of any kind. I looked online and found that the Nerf Maverick was the most popular Nerf gun to mod.

I had a design in my head of how i wanted this gun to look and can happily say i achieved my design. I managed to get my hands on a dial, which if I didn't get I wouldn't have made the gun. I have also used traditional steampunk style add-on's.
