Steampunk Ray Gun 1

hazzah! it is completed!
took me months of work but i finished the gun with just under a week to spare for the london MCM expo may 2010!

This started off as a purchased rubberband gun from ebay, i then sanded filed and shaped it, painted it with woodstain (at first with cheap woodstain and varnish in one from B&Q, which i do NOT recommend to aaaaanyone, it made the gun look like plastic) covered it in layers and layers of bees wax (again, use coloured bees wax, or it'll take the colour out, as i found out after about three coats

oh yes, i also used FAR too much glue in places, oops

Then came sticking everything on with "serious glue" it was not joking O.O hooraaaay

hope you enjoy, and will hope to see many of you at the upcoming expo!
