Help Me Design a Blaster Rifle
« on: Nov 12, 2020, 10:41 AM »
Okay, I know the rails need to go and it will need to be painted.  This is a rifle chassis I was using for competition and ended up going a completely different route so this is laying around.  Looking to keep the length about as long as it is.  I wasn't looking for something with a long barrel sticking out.  Need some ideas for what to do with the top channel.  Should it have a scope?  I don't know.     Let me hear your thoughts and ideas.







This is a WIP shot of my kit.  It was a lets try everything on loosely just to see if the idea is coming together.  Lots of work still needed to be done.

I would definetly add a barrel but one with holes in it like the dlt-19x

I do like that idea.  I will be mocking something up in Fusion 360 in the coming days and will see how it looks.

And a scope. When in doubt, add a scope. If you don't like it, add another scope. Repeat as necessary.

Perhaps add a polished aluminium heat guard all the way along the top, then add a scope. Very easy way to obscure the original silhouette and make it appear more in universe. Remind me later and I'll dig up a picture for you I have saved on my PC (on my phone atm about to go to work).

Why did the droid cross the road?

Because it was programmed by a chicken.

Nice chassis, what do you plan for your character? Is this going to be a specialist weapon? If a ranged weapon ...how about scope, bipod, what about a sling

I second this motion and yeah, as others have also said - add a scope or two to really make it pop. Or if you chose to just add one scope either make it a) really small or b) incredibly large lol
