Heres about 2 weeks worth of work, If anyones seen the anime: Hellsing, you will know just what this gun is, if not:



Total legth: 390mm
Barrel:13mm
"Too much gun for anyone to handle"


First I changed the barrel to Conduit, placed an endcap where the plunger shaft should be and placed a tyre valve out of the bottom. Then I modified a cheap $2 gun, I cut down the barrel as all i needed was the handle.




Box PVC was cut down and shaped to fit the gun, and a small rectangle for the end. A coat hanger and key ring were used for the trigger system, screws were placed in the sides to keep the gun together.




Painting started with coating all of the PVC with PVC primer, then ordinary white spray paint was used for the undercoat, followed buy a black top coat. the text was first drawn on with pencil and then painted by hand, The handle was just painted brown and a darker brown ink was then washed over it. A final matt finish was then sprayed on for protection.




NOTE: The text on the side is not ment to be offensive (if it is), it's just what's on the anime's gun:

Nice. I'm still painting my Trigun Revolver. I take it you're making the silver gun to go wit it as well? One question though, how do you pump it?

[Renegade]

Wow, that's awesome! It looks great, nice work!

...how do you pump it?

I have the same question.

I really like it, especially the super long barrel; it looks intimidating.

One question though, how do you pump it?

It's pumped by a bicycle pump but you can't really see the tire valves on the gun in the pictures.

hey, i was just wondering... you mentioned that you used box pvc on your gun and i was wondering where you got it, like what is it normally used for and stuff. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I found the box pvc at a large hardware store, but as it is mostly used for down-pipeing, I would look at a plumbin store, it was actually too big, so I cut it down to size and heated it with a pentorch to shape.

The smaller siver gun is called "Joshua" I believe, and soon enough I'll hopefuly start on the "Hal-cannon"-A 30mm "Anti-freak" weapon, or maybe something from the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" series...hmmm, maybe a "Lance of longulance (SP?)" H2h weapon.
