Can you make a Darth Vader helmet build
Hay can you do a video useing only knifes welded wood and a rotary tool no heat gun and if you do this plz do a like lord of the rings helmet I need tips
Can you make The weapon labor of Olympus from Honkai Impact 3rd
tip take a picture of inside moving parts so you know where everything goes when you put it back together
Yep, its the best way, I got hundereds of pics of the insides of nerf guns
Excellent suggestion!
@@hazard4349 that's gross
Adding the battery and switch behind the sliding prime was an ingenious and elegant solution.
how does this comment say 2 days ago when this video was uploaded today
@ItsJustRhino we release our videos early for our Extra Credit Club members! You can learn more about that here: punishedprops.com/extra-credit-club/
Britt: "Bill! Why is all our kitchen so grimy??"
"Wait...you weathered the dishwasher???"
Bill: "I got a problem, OK?!"
HAHAAAA!
Why is your dishwasher so dirty? did you weather it?
'ahhh, yea, definitely not cause i haven't cleaned it'
All makers are hoarders. Just ask Peter Brown!
One of the other nice things about Nerf Modding is that you can cut out sections and replace them with textured EVA foam. It really makes the grips feel and look cool!
Makers don't call it hoarding. They call it "Saving it for a future project". ;-)
Great ideas!
@@punishedprops *not hording, think of it as merely the advantageous archiving of randomly displaced elements in a resourceful manner for the express purpose of future assemblage and repurposing...LLC*
Nobody:
Cosplayers on quaranteen: WATCH THIS I AM GOING TO REPAINT THIS NERF GUN
Gotta stay creative somehow!
Oh its so cathartic
Looks so great!! We bought some NERF guns to do a project just like this after our we visited y'all and they've just been sitting around since. This really makes us want to bust them out 😀
p.s. also want to re-visit the DIY ammo sometime lol
Wooo! Yes!
liked before even watching, I know that all the videos that Bill does are amazing and worth watching, thumbs up to Punished Props Academy
Thank you so much!
5:42 "It's not trash..." I feel you :)
It's only trash if it's useless!
@@punishedprops Some may call this junk, me I call them treasures.
Love seeing your use of lights in this one!
Thank you!
Uncle Bill, crankin' right along! MANNNNNNN, I like how this turned out!
Aww shucks, thanks so much CrafsMan!
Bill: makes a nerf gun mod
THE SHOP: "0 days glitter free", ARE YOU LYING TO ME!!!
😝
Whenever I sand my Nerf blasters' warnings off I like to keep the WARNING and symbol in place, and occasionally a few other words, so it looks like there were some instructions there on how to not have this thing blow up in your face like an overcharged plasma rifle.
That's a fun idea!
"Why do I own that? Because it was $1 at Goodwill."
Dude, story of my life right there. GW4Lyfe
I love the shots of the priming process, it always for a split second looks like you swapped out the prop for a 3D model and it's so oddly satisfying.
Right? That's one of my favorite stages
Bill: Some may call this trash; me? I call them "Treasures."
HAH! Good ol' Belethor
Nerf gun props hold a special place in my heart as it was the first thing that got me to make my own props. I love it when you do these occasional toy gun mods and repaints. So much fun!
We love them too :)
LED's add the extra mile to everything ;) The switch access is a great idea to hide it!
Thanks so much!
I'm amazed of all the details you've put in to this, truly awesome!
Thank you so much!
Yes, it’s been way too long since I’ve sat down to enjoy a blaster mod. Absolutely loved the gage you used, I’d imagine that’s a very useful tool
It's awesome! We have a link in the video description if you want one for yourself :)
Watched this today, great job and love the defused light part. It also heartens me to see bits and pieces used in a build. Nice work my friend.
Thanks so much!
I would love to see you mod the tools you use everyday to look cool, but still function. Like strip a heat gun down to the basics and rebuild it to look like a blaster, but maintain its functionality.
For a future project I suggest eather the vermin or plasma carbine from the outer worlds, both look awesome and would probably require different styles to make.
Superglue and baking soda make a great plastic bond. It basically becomes a form of plastic when mixed. You have to work fast but you can build it up, it is sandable and paintable...
Yeah that's a great trick! Works really well.
Damn that's some relatable content when you try to blow away stuff with a mask on. Love the greeblies box. In all other aspects of my life I am a minimalist, but as soon as it comes to my little boxes of greeblies it's a different story.
Wow, I love your Greebly bins!
Thanks!
Good to see you back Bill! I was starting to worry (I'm silly that way). Hope the crew there is keeping safe.
We're doing well, thank you for your concern! We chose to take a short break from videos so we could focus on getting Foamsmith 3 written!
Great video Bill!
I'm glad to see that you did get some of that perf board that was recommended. It does make these electronic projects easier.
The only thing that I would have added would be a momentary switch activated by the trigger that lights up a different color LED for a "blaster bolt" effect.
That would be awesome!
*something else that might be useful if looking for an interesting texture, especially for grips and handles...gaffers tape... very tough and sturdy that can be weathered even more with acrylic paint...and then later sealed...especially useful if you want the weapon you're constructing to look like it's seen a lot of usage, and front line dings and infantry repair on the fly*
*would love to see you do a collaboration with the create scifi channel here on youtube if you've not done so already*
Nice greebles and lights.
Thanks!
Gotta love the old dart tag line, even if that blaster is reverse plungered
Old school techniques. No CNC machine or 3D printer. While those are useful, the classic frankensteining of a prop is always better.
he gives off so much happy dad energy, i love it.
Hard to be bummed when you're working on something fun!
Lady Longshanks needs to make something during quarantine. Keep your hand in, Britt!
Britt makes all kinds of cool projects and shares them with our Extra Credit Club when she's not filming all our videos! Check it out: punishedprops.com/extra-credit-club/
great job Bill, this cheered me no end today
That's really good to hear :)
This man totally redefined what a nerf gun is.
I hope that's a good thing!
Glad to see you back in the saddle again, hopefully we'll see videos more frequently again
That's the goal!
Another great video from you. The mod looks great and the diffusion of LEDs (with the slight crackling effect) is really cool idea.
Thank you so much for watching!
Something that might help to reduce the amount of necessary LEDs is to paint the interior Crome or silver. I guess you could use aluminum tape.
Great idea!
Great video as always...thank you! That contour gauge is AMAZING....I HAD NO IDEA IT EXISTED!
Right? Such a great tool. Thanks so much for watching! :)
I've begun work on one of the Lazer Tag pistols. Just paint and cleanup so far.
Fun!
He is the Bob ross of toy props
Awwwww thanks so much!
When working with thin plastic or acrylic drill a small 1/8” pilot hole and then drill out what size you need in reverse and let it melt its way threw
Thanks for the suggestion!
I have no idea how I ended up here, But i like this guy. Wasted (debatable) my entire Saturday watching these cool videos! Subbed.
Hey thanks so much for watching! We really appreciate your support :)
This is just the kind of project we all needed today Bill, thanks gang!
Happy to help! Thanks so much for watching :)
I love when people do mods and paint up nerf guns! I could never deface a nerf gun myself but I really do enjoy watching the process. (Adam Savage's video on TESTED is my personal favorite).
That's a great one!
Soon as Bill starts sorting through the crate what do I spot? An Auto-9!! That would look so cool modded and beefed up even more!
Oooh!
Ah, that explains why the channel has been lacking videos in the last couple of months or so. Glad some videos will be up again, and glad that you and Brit are ok.
Looks really good, better than most of us could do for sure.. I think I would have done a little silver dry brushing around some of the high points to make it look more beaten up. The rub and buff on the screws was a nice touch.
Great idea! Thanks so much for watching :)
That shape looks kinda Farscape-ish, that's pretty cool.
Thanks!
This was really cool, imo you really missed a great opportunity with the trigger.
Totally should have used the trigger with a button to run the lights when depressed, as if you are shooting it.
17:35 *not only is the hot glue delicious, it's also gluten free as well....BONUS!!!*
This just in, local hoarder goes crazy during quarantine and builds firearm. Passersby noted it was in fact "Pretty cool looking" and "Just a toy with some lights" More on this at eight.
Hah!
You should look in to making Sickicks mask. He is a Canadian singer/songwriter who has a really cool mask with some intricate shapes. I would love to see you tackle that.
Thanks for the suggestion!
always happy to see the angry bumblebee haha
NEEEEEeeeeeEEEEEeeeEEEEE
You should do a Jedi and Sith holocron build!
Oooh that would be neat!
that pvc foam looks like it would be good for armor
Yeah! Tons of folks use it for exactly that, especially in the Star Wars costuming communities.
You should’ve put the button inside the trigger so when you pulled it it turned on
That's a great idea! I hope people who try this mod try that too!
Pretty awesome build. I love painting old toy guns I find at thrift stores :)
Thanks so much for watching! It's a really fun project
Hallelujah!!! I was worried there would be no video during COVID-19!!!! Made my day this!
Fantastic!
I would love to find content of adding a sound card and LEDS to a nerf gun. I want to figure out what to use for that.
The profile of this gun reminds me so much of a peacekeeper blaster from Farscape! Have to find one of these to mod into my own Winona.
it kinda looks like a hand cannon or one of those rapid firing blasters from destiny2 , i forgot how the fast one its called, always used the hand cannon more
You should do before and after shots
Thanks for the suggestion!
Please make the helmet from call of duty infinite warfare. Awsome build
Yeah
Thanks for letting us know you're interested in that build! We have our current schedule worked out, but there could be room for this kind of video in future plans.
Good to see yall back in action
Feels good to be back!
The noise your rotary tool makes XD
WeeeeEEEEeeeeeEEEEeeeeeEEEEE
Love the red metallic color.
Thanks!
Amazing as always Bill
Thank you very much!
The secret to good prop making? Hoarding!
Very cool
Obviously it's going to vary from project to project depending on the amount/type of LEDs and batteries, but what's the expected battery life for something like this?
That's a great question. I imagine it's similar to a small flashlight or computer mouse, but I'm not sure!
It’d be really cool to see the mandalorian’s pistol or rifle as a prop. Doesn’t have to fire but a moving trigger would be cool!
Looks Great! Did you thin the Tamiya paint? Tamiya paint generally needs to be thinned for it to have the best results. When spraying metallics, it's best to use a gloss black base coat to make it really pop. Other than that, love the cyberpunk vibes of the prop!
I do usually thin Tamiya with a little alcohol, yes :)
when you are in a Nerf war and someone pulls out this bad boy 26:20
How fun!
The finished work looks very Tau from Warhammer 40,000 and I love it
I would personally love to see some Borderlands 3 builds. To take the Nerf Guns and make at least one gun from each gun manufacturer. Preferably a Jakob's pistol and sniper rifle, and maybe functional. We don't have enough Borderlands content lol.
Maybe even some 3D printable related content.
Thanks for letting us know you're interested!
I was wondering looking at the Nerf blaster used. was that not the one they used for the Energy pistols used in Farscape. it looks really similar too it.
Oh maybe! I'm not sure
THANK YOU for this lovely video; break; and wholesome content that otherwise cannot be lived without
Awww that's so kind. We're SO glad we can help people find some joy these days
Awesome job on this build, Bill.
Thanks so much!
Hey I love your RUclips channel maybe you can do some videos called fan pickers so you build what we your fans pick?
Hi, a while back I asked for you to build a pipe pistol that shoots bb's. I would also be duly impressed if you could build a death claw gauntlet with the extra claw mod that could actually cut through things.
Thanks for letting us know you're interested in that build! We have our current schedule worked out, but there could be room for this kind of video in future plans.
Awesomeness!
Thanks for the video Bill. The only thing I would have done differently with this build is that I would have used more styrene to decorate the handle.
Thanks so much for watching!
Very cool. Does anybody know which Nerf blaster that was?
*Strange, I haven't seen a Punished Prop video in my feed for weeks, I'm sure Bill's been up to tons of stuff during quarantine, can't wait to check it out...!*
Crickets. No uploads. D:
We're working hard to get Foamsmith 3 published! You can help us keep producing our monthly videos and get some extra content by joining our Extra Credit Club! punishedprops.com/extra-credit-club/
Always gone with the approach that you start a large bit hole with a small bit. Works even better than the step bits.
How about a flash circuit so when you pull the trigger the blaster "fires" also when you power it up or fire it you get a a recharge or powerup whine.
That's a fun idea!
Good to see you again! Looking forward to the book
We're glad to be back and so excited!
We are subscribing!
Fantastic! Thanks so much for your support!
We whose the other person
My only recommendation is to add some metallic blue to the barrel.
Ooh I like it!
Bill is the "Fred Rogers" of prop making.
Awwww you're too kind :)
Glad to see a new prob congratulations on the new book cant wait to get my hands on it stay safe out there
Thanks so much!
You should totally make garnet’s gauntlets or are they fist thingies?
They're kind of both? They're super cool!
every kid in the world goes "mommy, can you buy me a new nerf gun please? I ruined mine."
Hah!
Not being a lighting guru like you, how hard would it be to either make the lights change color or brighten on the trigger pull? Might be a cool touch on a future project.
Id like to see some Zelda theme items like Majora's mask, Link's sword and Hyrulian shield maybe even Ganons head mask
Thanks for the suggesiton!
This honestly looks like something out of Halo.
Maybe it is the colors, or i don't know
I haven't played Halo in a while but any fan let me know if you guys think the same.
Other than that
Awesome!
I can see it! Thanks for watching :)
Woo, nice to see you guys back with a vid!
Tah-dah!
Punished Props Academy I’m glad you got to slow down the release schedule a bit, and I hope you’re both feeling more on top of things. I did miss your content lately, though! It always makes me happy.
