E-11 first build, there's a new hope even for me :)


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I wanted show you my WIP on my firts Blaster.

I bought a DDs kit and in the meantime, waiting the goods, I collected some references and tips here around.

I guess that at the end of the day I even added something interesting at the build that could be useful for your build.

At the beginning, I cleaned some edges with the dremel and drilled holes between the pieces that needed to be bonded and inserted pieces of a threated rod to increase the resistence using the resin

Posted Image

I added the tip of a tiny screwdriver as front sight

Posted Image

Posted Image

I drilled some holes as seen in the references

Posted Image

I added the real screws where needed to increase the accuracy

Posted Image

Posted Image

The aluminium rail cut, bended and drilled

Posted Image

Milluput paste to straightening some weak edges

Posted Image

and to add few datails like at the bottom of the magazine,

here below I make the clip on the back side using ABS and the inner pipe of an ink pen

Posted Image

A new idea grown in my mind, open the ejector and create a full inner barrel

Posted Image

After sanding

Posted Image

the inner part using a 2cm pipe and an ABS strip

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

Here I made the spring using a crutch

Posted Image

Posted Image

After few tweaks

Posted Image

And the final look

Posted Image

I drilled the rivet shape using a tip for wood and appling a sligth pressure

Posted Image

after a while I changed the front screws with the striped one in imperial measure this time.

Posted Image

here some bolts, screws that I added to the build

Posted Image

Posted Image

some tweaks on the "hengstler" counter

Posted Image

I cut the same 1/3 of the 2cm pipe that I used before and the ABS to create the reset button and the cover

Posted Image

Posted Image

for the screen cover I recycled one of those transparent box

Posted Image

Posted Image

after sanding

Posted Image

I painted with the matt black the base and the inner part of the "mast step"

Posted Image

divided per 6 parts

Posted Image

Posted Image

I rised a bit the last number

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

Even though I forgot to shoot few steps here, this is the final result after the Grey Primer

on the whole blaster I added a first layer with the Brigth Silver, and on the Lens the brass.

Here below the result after the sanding and few strokes with a dry brush.

Posted Image

I forgot to mention that I drill the small tiny points on the front sight

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

this is the "Rivet Effect"

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

before the last black layer I engraved the "OFF" on the magazine

I am starting to look into the steps needed to construct a SWAT appropriate E-11 and this thread was great! The best part, IMHO, was that someone somewhere finally found a use for those infernal plastic packages that require a surgons skill to open.
