So I'm doing an urban themed Mando build, envisioning deep dark alleys and corridors thousands of levels down on a city planet, so a shotgun was my choice for a primary.
Started with a Nerf Doublebreech as a base, and added some staggered barrel extensions and PVC boxes to help break up the profile.
The scope was quickly replaced with a boxxy holo styled scope as a rifle scope doesn't make much sense for a shotgun and because that particular scope is pretty identifiable as nerf
While I liked the basic shape and style, the height was too much and the scope was oversized for the blaster, so I cut it down to a better proportion.
Scope is made using PVC pipe and couplers and the body is 3mm sintra. The housing on top will contain the LEDs controlled via the switch.
Additional pannels and greeblies added, and scope is secured to the blaster via neo-magnets.
Base coat silver applied. A few more things needed to be added like a flat cover for the "shell door" to alter the stock appearance, and probably a little more disguising of the pistol grip and rear section.
Once that's done it will undergo latex masking and blacking, with additional weathering done. LED install and testing, then filling in the screw holes and touch up.
Progress pics to come.
