As in Green Day, or did you make the "Tres Cool" on it's own tangent?I'm loving the chainsaw bayonet boltgun. Tres cool

And I sold his signature drum set from Slingerland two years ago, dang. Noise Marines in the Underhive?
huh. if anything I'd say they got edgier as they got older. 1021 smoothed out slappy hours (an ep collection) and their other pre-Dookie release are pure bubblegum...
BUT this has nothing to do with the thread...

It kind of does. Underhive noise marines. Named gangers. Tres Cool running the heavy bolter budda-budda-budda, Eyeliner Evan on the sniper rifle, and a spastic set of gangers that have to roll the dice to see if they act like zombies for a turn. Take an Escher model and convert it to a Green Hole ganger.... The Green Hole gang, Elmer Hoofstrike would have a heyday encountering them...
I am certainly not a successful and wealthy musician. Not really a successful and wealthy anything. But I have to admit, and maybe it is just being Canadian, but I never really put considerations into how franglais is used or understood elsewhere.
The blasters do still fire their nerf darts, @nooker, though some of the builds won't. I think I can whip up a missile launcher easy enough out of some 4" diameter electrical conduit from work, so that won't fire darts... though part of me wonders if I could shoot single ball shoot and burst fireworks out of it But the other non firing weapons will include a Plasmagun and a Flamer. Thinking of going backpack fuel canister for the Flamer; I feel like making sci-fi fuel canister/ spaceman backpacks is a good staple in underbudgeted sci-fi movies
The pistol with the hazard stripes is a matching pair, so they will be a good gunslinger option.

Don't make them visible in your car, my nephew was arrested for having black painted air-soft guns in public. But then he also put a friend in his trunk who "escaped" in a fast food line, was chased down and returned to the trunk. It was a prank, but it was a suburb of Chicago.....
I am not a succesful or wealthy musician, and my daughter would argue the musician label in any meaning of the word. But I enjoy banging on drums, pianos, and Cawdors.

A bit more work. These won't be intended for very many car rides, more just gonna hang em up on the walls after. The longlas received a new front end to make it retain nerf gun capabilities, although for the biggest rifle in the mix it has a very poor spring coil in it. I'm not really in it for the dart shooting though it is cool to keep the function on them.
Tbh I'm a fan of your stub gun. Oh speaking of cosplay the youtuber mineralblu made a music video that has some really awesome ones of various characters. But the best one is the woman that was the sister of battle she was from the order of the martyred lady I think. She was top notch.
Thanks
I have seen some of the MineralBlu videos before; seems like Beat Down Boogie has the main comicon cosplay electro trance music video dance scene thing in their videos of costume showcases. Those builds and outfits are next level. This whole thing is more like sewing bicycle tires over the shoulder of a leather jacket for some photo ops with space blaster guns.
Yeah there were two Maverick pistols (they were both yellow and orange with black pistol grips), and then the other two pistols were almost like updated versions or something. They were literally lot purchases: 15 guns total for less than the price of two Necromunda gangs.
For paint I use Rustoleum Painters Touch Matte Black as a base, then sometimes I make further additions to the weapon and just use brush on black paint. It is all the same paint I use for terrain, the 60 mL bottles of craft acrylic paints like Folk Art, Applebarrel, DecoArt, Crafters Acrylics, etc... I usually buy paint from a Michael's, not sure if that store is outside Canada. I base coat layers, then usually drybrush silver then gold, correct any of the panels not needing drybrushing of those two colours, then weather by layering a very wet black acrylic down, then silver, then wet brown and dry brown. Maybe orange. Seal it all with Rustoleaum Painters Touch Satin Clear. Add non paint markings/ tape/ straps/ etc., and they're done. Long term plan is to have them as fancy background wall pieces for some battle report videos I piece together of some gangs and terrain I have painted up. Put some more Necromunda videos up on youtube, grow the number of YakTribe standard of quality videos that can be found by searching "Necromunda"... that would be sweet
So so far down the road

Not exactly Necromunda, but I made armor for my son's Adeptus Mechanicus costume. Don't let the expression of the boy fool you, he's actually really excited to have the armor & now his sister wants a set.
How do you make the foam shapes and secure them? Do you have any more WIP stuff? is it painted black after? You could glue a whole host of trinkets on their that look the part and then some drybrushing of even really dark greys around all the edges will really give that photo quality look of depth really really easily. That thing looks sweet. I wanna make something like that.
So far my thought of a Van Saar costume would just be buying the classic green or blue coloured compression long underwear for ski/outdoor winter work season, and then making little shoulder pads or arm bands with techy stuff in them, have a belt and leg pouches and probably some sort of backpack worn suit-tech looking thing with breather filtres and power packs and ammo, etc.. If lots of the pieces are transferable between house looks and the rest is just random garbs of clothing I already own, I think it wouldn't be too hard to get some blatantly Necromunda inspired costumes together...

Here are the latest mods to the longlas:
The new longer barrel is a size up in diameter than the old one so it will still fire foam darts.
Some foam work. There will be a scope perched on top of that even so it gets into being tall, so I will bulk out the body with gubbins glued on and wiring harness looking runs... the ammo magazine will get a bulky capacitor bank and fan heatsink look to it so that should balance it. I think that it looking cartoonish helps with the fact that it isn't something people are gonna lose their shit on and swear is a real sniper rifle.
Blacked out the raw materials. Still will cover the majority of that up even if the design pans out how I am thinking.

@Blood Donor I do not have a tutorial or more wip shots, but I will share with you what I used to make it, which will be pretty much the same thing.
I bought this pattern and the arm pattern for the shoulders (although, I just realized I did it rather differently than the pattern intended), but there are a ton of free ones out there (I'll link one if I can find it).
And then I followed this guy's video:
