My latest creation, the Gaslight Gun! A tiny gas lantern rests atop a small chamber, with two loupes to focus the light. One loupe is a beam focuser, the other is a ruby, which makes the 'dot' appear red. A small wired switch ignites the lamp and the loupes focus the beam down to a small red dot, showing you exactly where your weapon is aimed.


This is a modified Nerf Maverick with a decorative embellishment along the bottom. The 'gas cannister' is an airsoft laser site, and the lenses are jeweler's loupes. The small lamp is exactly that, one designed for a dollhouse.

Wow, this is very well made! I am currently working on one now, using a different model of nerf gun, and it is not cooperating as well as I had hoped. Nice effect with the color blotching, i just used a little sandpaper to give it the weathered look. Yours is far better than mine though, well done sir!

Nice colors. Did you use shellac on it as well?

dthat is freaking awesome. How did you do that thing with the leather on the handle?
I'm modding a Steampunk Maveric and want to use the idea.

Thanks! You literally just cut a butterfly shape out of leather (you can usually by small pieces at leather shops or craft stores) and glue it directly to the gun. Before cutting it out of the leather, I made a pattern out of fabric that I placed over the sunken area of the grip (if you look at your Maverick, you'll see that there's a separated area that has little nubs all over it) and then traced out the shape. Then I cut out the leather, rolling the edge of the leather under after stretching it over the grip so that it ended up with a finished edge.
