And just to clarify this is the strength D level gun, and it would be going on a vampire raider. It doesn't have to be an exact match, just a decent facsimile.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/546604/5955706.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/546604/5955706.page GMT Advice requested for scratchbuilding the eldar pulsar

My initial pulsar was actually made quite easily using a couple of 1/12 scale porch posts. They had a couple of square blocks that needed to be cut off the top and bottom and then a bit of detailing but they were nearly perfect in length and diameter. I think I found them at a flea market.

Next I happened upon some fancy looking pens at a discount store. Again, the shape was nearly perfect, but they didn't narrow quite as much as the FW ones. In order to deal with this, I used some styrene tubing and putty to give the proper narrow/wide contours.

Most recently I turned one on a bench top lathe out of a block of solid acrylic (pen blanks). After the shape was turned on the lathe, I used a Dremel to carve details in and putty to build up some other details.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/546604/5988215.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/546604/5988215.page GMT
