  • I'm so very excited to introduce my first video. Today we are going to learn how to build a Star Wars Bounty Hunter Blaster with an old Nintendo Zapper and some scrap parts.
    We will cover the basics of painting, weathering, and accenting techniques.

    Vaseline works better for weather it. Mustard sometimes leave a yellow color on the first layer. Tooth past works too and leave it smelling good lol

    I also bought a Nintendo light gun from Ebay to build a blaster. Mine's smaller overall but I like the aesthetic choices you made. I especially like the idea of the metallic undercoat with the chipped black paint over the top. I'm going to seriously consider doing that for my prop build.
    I think this is a very good effort all things considered. As another commenter said, the gun is unbalanced and the single scope mounting point would get out of alignment the first time it gets bounced around in a bar brawl. Despite you saying early in the video that you don't want a blaster as big as a stormtrooper's, you pretty much ended up with something that's about as big, at least as far as length is concerned.
    With all of that said, there are plenty of examples in Star Wars itself of horribly impractical blaster designs. I see this as more of a two-handed carbine (the rope wrap makes a great forehand grip) that could be fired one-handed if need be (but probably not very accurately). Adding another scope ring toward the eyepiece would provide more rigidity. I don't really mind the absence of a trigger guard. Lots of real world guns didn't have trigger guards, especially early revolvers. A bounty hunter who's going to use some home-built kit like this likely doesn't care about protecting the trigger from accidental use anyway.
    Nice work, especially for your first video!

    Looks great. Will look better if you fill the screw holes.

      Pistol grips are held by screws on real guns so having screws on a prop doesn’t really detract from the gun but it’s everybody preference when doing your own

    love it! great design, and i like that is more based on the older blasters, the scope, black metal and wood are classic mixes

    I do not like your pistol.
    Before I go into reasons let me say that your video has a nice bright clean look to it. Your video production values are great with clean audio (maybe the music was a little loud) good lighting and steady camera work. Your construction methods and weathering techniques are worth watching, and you do not waffle on and on about other non build things. I really enjoyed your tutorial style and have subscribed to see more videos.
    Why don't I like your pistol? except for the rope not being dark enough to match the rest of the grime, everything else is about the design. Most of these problems would go away if it were big enough to be a carbine instead of a pistol.
    1. no trigger guard
    2. the front of the pistol looks heavy and unwieldy. This makes it slow to draw and hard to aim
    3. the sight. with only one mount it would get knocked out of alignment all the time and the placement of the mount adds to the pistols front heavy problem.
    4. holster. this pistol would be a pain to put in a holster and a nightmare to draw.
    We all make things differently and while I don't like your pistol, I am sure that many will. I look forward to your next video, please don't let this comment get you down - I think that your channel is going to rock if you keep putting out videos like this one.

      Hi Armoury-Terrain,
      I really appreciate your constructive feedback on the production of the video, tutorial approach, and the practicality of the blaster itself. You are 100% correct in that I approached this build from an entirely aesthetic viewpoint, not taking into account practicality of the prop in a film world scenario. I honestly do not know anything about guns or their functionality, which as your feedback outlines, is evident in the design. Thank you so very much for your thoughtful comment, and I really appreciate you subscribing to the channel for more content.

      They can be pronounced interchangeably. It just so happens that "greebles" is the less common plural term despite George Lucas coining the term "greeble" for a singular thing instead of "greeblie".
      You can hear Adam Savage use either greebles or greeblies interchangeably.
