Dl 44 blasters

[Chubs&Doggers]

Wanted to share some blasters builds I've completed. All Han's blasters. 2 are the same ESB builds, 1 HERO & 1 GK. Built on a modified Denix with metal and synthetic parts to complete each blaster. I also build Luke's Degobah & Bespin blasters. At the moment I'm working on Han's ROTJ blaster along with a TFA build (not on an airsoft but also on a modified Denix).

Thanks for looking. I can also share more pics & I do sell them as well if interested.

They look gorgeous, Chubbs. Great weathering and detailing.

Can I ask how much money you put into each and where you found the parts? I probably would never find the time to build one myself, but I'm curious anyway just because I would love to have one.

The parts are not inexpensive unfortunately. The mauser I use alone cost about $100 (W/ Lacquered Wood Grips). The EMPIRE flash hider can be found on eBay but they sell for another 80 I believe. From there I invested in having all the parts for all my builds made into 1:1 STL files. Or as close to 1:1 as could possibly get. For all my other builds I gathered parts where ever I could, then modified them to what I believe to be film accurate. Obviously there is no definitive answer to this - the orginal hero doesn't even exist any longer). But there is plenty of pictures on the net to guide you.

I also modified the denix of each build to try a replicate the MGC mausers that were used in the OT. Sanding off the denix logo, the trigger, and many other parts. Changing out the grip screws etc.

Thanks for all the info, Chubs. Very impressive amount of work you've put into it! They really are quite beautiful and you should feel proud to have made them and have them!

Adam Savage did a one day build of one with a (limited number) kit he got through the RPF board:

Thanks a bunch. I've seen this video and it was very helpful. Especially seeing the master replica compared to what adams built. He also had an actual MGC Mauser to build on. They cost about as much as what the MR goes for alone! Crazy expensive. I use a Denix but with the proper love it can do a really nice job of subbing in. I've tried to duplicate the authenticity of having all separate parts then assembling them as one would off the assembly-line.

Here is my TFA blaster build

Gorgeous builds!

Gorgeous builds!

Thanks!

Just finished Han's ROTJ blaster and wanted to share.

Very nice! Denix is a very good base for DL-44 (or Merr Sonn). Real MGC's are very expensive, and real deac. Mausers not allowed everywhere.

Looks beautiful.

 

[Chubs&Doggers]

Thanks. Here's a HERO build as well.

Also a collection of HS OT Blasters

Beautiful stuff. I hope to get in on a future batch of the metal kit for a ANH Han blaster.

 

[TonTon]

Those look great, Chubs!

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Hot damn, those are beautiful! Great work, Chubs!
