Here is the completed weapon:



It's just built out of extruded poly-styrene and with a few layers of glue and paint slapped down out it. It takes a little while to build because you have to use a hot-wire cutter to make all the grooves, but the whole process is pretty simple. If anyone is interested, I put together a 9 minute video on the steps required to build it:

That must look really cool in real life! I'd like to see a pic of a person standing next to it / holding it.

The angle of the pic makes it hard to see what the two squares are on top of the gun are... is this an optical illusion or are they really much wider than the gun itself? Are they a sight?

Very cool, thanks for sharing

Well, it doesn't shoot anything so in that sense it doesn't work.

Since the whole things barely weighs anything, it makes a horrible club. So it that sense, it matches the fluff of the universe.



As for the giant block on top, I think it is some sort of sight and it is supposed to be wider then the barrel. As for the width of the barrel, it could probably be wider. I just estimated the dimensions from the figure.
