The only thing funnier would be if this was a Lasgun, the falling apart at the start would be lore accurate.
Really? Lasguns/pistols were known for being the most reliable weapon In The imperial guard.
@@BladeMasterGrom13 most of them. The pattern used on Necromunda was known to be faulty as all hell to the point where even the admech and the van saars two infamously stingy factions put a full refund and recall out on them due to how bad they were. It was to the point where the local militia in the mid to upper sections of Necromunda hive primus used stubber weapons as opposed to the local lasguns.
@@thomas4092 Uh, The issue with the Van Saar lasguns is that they were over-performing. They had a far higher output of damage than any other lasgun, bar maybe the Lucius pattern which the Death Korps use. The side effect was just a minor case of radiation poisoning.
@@JDalton321 yeah, so good at what it does that the gun itself couldnt contain its excitement and just breaks
Would be cool if nerf made a 40k range. Could have bolters, meltas etc.
Well Hasbro have that NERF Pulse Rifle on HasLab...if that goes well, they might seek out other licenses...
@@petermartin9224 ohhhh the nerf pulse rifle! might have pre-ordered that guy
Alpha trooper base looks bit like a bolt pistol.
(Was my first and can’t unsee it as B pistol for years)
Alternatively, could be used as a base for laz / auto rifle if you have the right attachments.
@@petermartin9224 they also did both StarWars, Halo and probably more.
So i see no reason why not.
WH40K firearms make zero logical sense in terms of mechanical engineering. With the magazine seated at the front of a pistol, your rounds would quite literally be sticking out of the barrel.
That is really nice, but now you need to go for the REAL challenge: A HOLSTER ! Leatherworking for a holster like that would be pretty easy, and printing a Eagle and getting it gold would be pretty good.
"Haven't pulled the trigger...." I see the pun game is still on target.
And this episode was almost like a variant of "Models and Memories" as well.
lol, I think my favorite part is Jay just looking at the camera and sanding....
it was alot of sanding
This same model was actually one of the first 3D prints I finished and painted, which has now spiraled into painting miniatures. I still have the finished prop on my bookshelf. I had to go get mine while I was watching and reminisce, since our processes for prep were very similar. Primer, filler spray, lots and lots of sanding.
Oh, and those small ridged parts you left out are the magazine release latches (the squares) and the safety (the rectangle) that go on the flat squares at the rear of the magazine well and in one of the rectangular grooves in the rear portion of the body, respectively. They don't really have a way to snap in, so I can see how it's easy to just ignore them, but rarely do 3D prints have parts that aren't used.
Do you know where I can get the stl? I finally have a filament printer and would love to print it
I have a 3d printed chainsword and bolt pistol. Your sanding tips and the video as a whole have been absolutely invaluable in order to make progress. My deepest thanks.
i actually started making plasma pistol prop some time ago, but it is very primitive design (i wasn't very good at 3d modeling) so i think i'll edit it, to look more like your pistol, thanks for inspiration! :)
very cool! I also designed a plasma pistol, perhaps it will show up in a models and memories in the future
The beginning reminds me of those seens in war movies when we see a guy disassembling and reassembling his rifle. Haven't gotten farther than a minute yet, but I hope it stays to where you can disassemble it again as if you were doing a deep clean of the weapon.
Absolutely wild to hear someone else had the exact same experience as me, doing cosplay and props in high-school watching one day builds before moving onto miniature painting using the skills I learned in cosplay and occasionally doing a prop build here and there
Very cool project, it turned out fantastic. Would love to see more prop videos you obviously have a gift for doing them.
I've been looking at these for ages and now really want. This looks amazingly good!
maybe it's time to pull the trigger! Pun intended
@@EonsOfBattle I think the pile of plastic will need to be reduced before that happens, the wife might use it as grounds for divorce 😬
Where do you get it from?
@@EdwardWB97 I've seen them on Etsy as both STL files and pre-printed. Just search 40k, there's loads on there.
Great build and video. A couple things that might help you along in the future.
1) holster wear is a real thing
2) carbon build up on the barrel and ejector port adds use
3) A drill holster would probably work for this piece
4) An electric tooth brush can be converted to a detail sander with swappable grits pretty easily
5) research finishing 3D prints like acetone smoothing.
Good luck.
Inquisitor Jay, of the Ordo Nunya (Biznez). Also, good to see more props like hinted in some older videos; just hobby all around.
I really didn’t like the green at first, but when you added the weathering *chefs kiss* wonderful.
yep! I was a little restricted by what my store had, but it turned out
Really enjoyed this one Jay and you did a great job on it. Definitely up for more prop style builds
would love to do more, so many more unique designs from 40k
Damn straight! Balance = $$$$$$ and don't you forget it!
Super cool! I think my only (minor) comment would be I think the finger grooves could have been a black "insert", might have added a little more variation/believability? Love it otherwise though. Would definitely be up for seeing more in a series of this kind!
jay said i needed to watch this after his stream so here I am doing my homework like a good student
"That was a good noise, I'm sure." -best representation of my 3d printing and hobby experience
Man, I love your energy. Totally powers me up for the hobby when I get that odd slump. Please, stay well and amazing. It helps us all out. Cheers!
I have a bolter my brother printed for me. I love it and it needs painting which is in my pile to do.
You could print one of these as a skin overlap for the Liberator ;-)
Very nice work Jay! A great addition to weathering instead of the silver sharpie is to paint the body silver, then pick spots and paint on some masking fluid, then spray your olive drab color. When you peel off the masking fluid it makes it really looked chipped in 3D since you can see the edge of the olive drab paint. That mixed with the silver drybrushing take weathering to another level! I like it because you can make realistic looking long scratches where using a silver sharpie for that would look very flat. Once again awesome job!
Inb4 Jay rattlecans a real AR15 and paints an aquila on handguard like a lasgun.
I would love to see a tau pulse pistol! Maybe with some LED lights installed in it!
As a Tau player, I’d love the pulse pistol! Buuuut I’d be super pumped to watch you build a plasma pistol
You forgot to install the magazine release and safety catch buttons! (the small square/rectangle pieces)
Thanks for the video, that weathering technique is nice! I've had this model assembled in my book case for months, but haven't been sure of how to go about painting it (and not finding a suitable green spray can..). Maybe your video will get me to finish it one of these days...
I love the energy you bring to your content. You create some seriously entertaining videos!
and there are plenty more on the way!
Fantastic finish.
This is making me wanna have a go at a project like this. Great video!
Oh shit the nerd is sttrapped.... the weathering effects really made it come to life. That was a lot of sanding too lol.
This intro was definitely the cutest. lol
One of my new favorite vids to date! Do more props!
I have this exact prop gun waiting to be painted in my room. Thanks for the inspiration to finally put some paint on it
you should do a prop build series to help us small time Warhammer nerds a idea of what to do with making props and how to make them awesome with a little eonsofbattle touch
I printed one of those a few years ago. I ended up remixing it so the trigger moves and the ejection port opens. I also added a longer magazine that was removable.
cool!
Love how the trigger discipline kicks in after posing with it at 19:46. :) Amazing video, and envious of the results!
only point it at things you intend to shoot! bad news for the camera!
You know, when I was looking up 3D printed gun videos, I did not imagine it would intersect with my 40k hobby. Very nice.
Great video as usual! Loved the dead stare into the camera while sanding 😂Hope Jay makes more guns/weapons from 40k
I have no end if ideas for things to build from the 40k world
@@EonsOfBattle Keep them coming! You make the best vidoes on YT imo, thanks for all the hard work.
1:50 the elusive short haired jay in his natural habitat! *national geographic voice
love it, the tyranid pistol would be amazing sort of like the weird gristle gun in existenz
Great video, an enjoyable watch.
"lOooK aT THAAAT" Lmao proper funny
yep!
I also have to try this "sanding" hobby - looks like a lot of fun...
Really liked this video and I'd love to see more 40k pistols. Specifically some orky sluggas
Ya dude make all the side arms this was fun
what?! No purity seal? No prayer scrawled on the body? No name?! don't guns in 40k get names? Great video by the way... I used to build Fallout props for funs-ies
a purity seal is not a bad idea, maybe a quick fallow-up video!
This came out nice. I have a 3D printer I think I'll try making one this weekend. I think it would be cool to add some scorch marks to the muzzle.
When I hear the term 'Stubber' in the 40k novels this is the gun I'm picturing.
17:59 “Dede get out of my laboratory !!”
I've been working on an arc rifle for a skitarii cosplay. I haven't made much progress on it though since the con I was making it for was cancelled and that really killed my motivation.
Also the sudden homestuck prop mixed in there was incredibly jarring. Always terrifying when unrelated creators acknowlege the existence of that cursed comic.
interesting, never knew what that prop was but someone paid me 50 bucks to make it!
OMG, autobody work on cosplay props! Jay, you are a beast!
P.S. You should do some welding in your next project. (You can weld plastics nowadays)
Ohh, I would go for a classic Storm Bolter! Blood Angel Terminator for days!
I just got my lucius 98 from Janovich. It turned out pretty nice! I'm gonna work on making it able to be converted to a hellgun and back again. It'll be a challenge, but I think I can do it.
Damnnnn, some good looking Ur-Ghouls at the end there 😉😘
That was freaking cool! You should do mando's pistol.
that would be soo cool!
that sickle in the prop image segment gave me fuckin flashbacks
almost screeched
alot of people are bringing that up! I never knew what it was but someone payed me good money to make it in high school
The friendliest warhammer youtuber i s2g.
for a second I read that as star gate 2
Ill admit it, I actually laughed out loud when the book fell.
Yes please please please do all other pistols
More Prop videos please! 😀
I would love to do more props
The blank stare while sanding made me ugly laugh 🥲😮💨
I would love to get my hands on that 3D file of that gun. ^^
i used to customize nerf guns for a while. this was a hell of a trip down memory lane lol
me too!
Most weapons like Las pistols, riffles, hellguns or tau plasma riffles & pistols, are capable of eig made similar to aesthcially functional blaster from Star Wars, there guys & girls who do this and make very convincing props, with a combination of electronics build into them, we have led lights, batteries that can even work as the ammo mags, very well consoled small speakers for sound effects,
Bolters are just very custom made nerf guns, I've seen a Storm Bolter,
Not the Karkat sickle lol
never thought of using a powder with super glue as a filler thats so smart!!
Wow a homestuck weapon, that brings me back
Watching TH-cam whilst at school, that makes me feel really old.
ah yes! the first fabricator-general of 2.021K.
This is rad!
i'm sure it will be a storm bolter when it grows up :)
Instead of spending hours sanding, paint on some resin from a resin printer, it will get rid of layer lines in 1-2 coats........or get a palm sander :)
I have seen that and it does the same thing as the spray primer, but it does still need sanding to be perfect
@@EonsOfBattle it's much better than spray primer at filling in those lines :) A lot of the cosplayers ditching the bondo/filler route and using the resin method instead, whatever works for you though, never just one way is right and othere wrong
I would love to see you do a pulse pistol as I wanna do one too!
[skips ahead] oh, thank the emperor, you turned the charging handle and cover plate around so that the handle is forward.
I just clicked like on this from the thumbnail. Rad pistol.
it's pretty awsome!
To bad it's not a Laspistol, could put one of those high power laser pointers in it for realistic damage.
I printed and assembled this pistol and did some measurements. The barrel and ejection port tell us that it uses a shotgun shell, and the magazine is only big enough for one.
This is a suicide pistol.
If you lived in the Imperium you'd want one too if you're fighting Chaos or Dark Eldar
In 40k I imagion that gun could put down a grot.... or maybie a small nid? Anything above a scarab sworn and you're outta luck.
a bolt round is a bolt round, with just the right shot it could take down even a space marine... in MY head cannon
You know some basic gun safety! and thats not keeping the finger on the trigger, good detail!
I bet some of that spray rubber plasti-dip stuff would be great on the front end of the grip.
For the algorithm!
For the channel!
For the emperor!
the algorithm is appeased!
Immaculate
I want this chambered in .45
I’m convinced there are three of you
we are legion!
Looks pretty cool just a bit bizarre where the ejection port is positioned for the gun. Now you got to get a Lucius Pattern Lasgun!
yah clearly the bullets are at least twice as long as the ejector. perhaps this gun is perfect and never has a misfire or jam to clear.
mortarions gun would be awesome
I feel like in 20 years this prop will show up in a models and memories
40 y/o Jay with still a youtube channel lmao
exactly!
Fun fact, this model was the first thing I ever found for Warhammer and made.
GW layers: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Adam Savage should watch this. I bet he would get a kick out of it.
achhh xtc hate the stuff. i use the old resin thats left with 3d resin printing. you get plenty of work time until your happy with the spread then uv cure it. i find that xtc has a to short time though if you spread it out on some tin foil it will not cure as fast but i always hated using the stuff. :) nice job
Ok advice taken, put prop into a box with stones and shake for 1 minute at medium strength.
@@rrxyzrr yeah it'll be a good weathering technique, not only scratches but micro chiping aswell.
love this video! more like this
I think a resin print would have saved you a lot of sanding, since it is way higher resolution compared to a FDM print
I agree for some pieces, but I wouldn't want it 100% resin because it would be too heavy and fragile.
@@EonsOfBattle Well, the more you know. Seems like the consensus is that Resin is less durable than a normal FDM print. The more you know. For some reason I just assumed it was the same.
Could be fun to see a 3D printing myth busting video. There probably is one already.
@@minihali I have both FDM and resin printers. For strength in FDM, it really comes down to wall thickness. With 8mm walls, you would have a very strong PLA print that you can stomp on in boots without worry, but the same model printed with .8mm walls will break apart like thick egg shells in your hands at the layer lines. I use both settings, depending on if I need to just make a prototype part for fitting/sizing or a functional part, and typically use 1.2mm wall thickness for small prop parts while using 2.4mm wall thickness for large props. Resin is heavy and pretty tough when printed solid, but is universally brittle on things like corners. It breaks like glass, but even thick glass can be pretty tough in the right conditions. Any resin print dropped onto a hard surface will probably at least get small chips breaking off if it didn't outright shatter.
Each has their strengths and weaknesses, and they can be used to augment each other pretty well. If I was printing, say, a tank model, I would print the main structure using FDM and the detail and exterior armor panel parts using resin.
@@BlackWolf18C Thanks for the thought-out answer! I'll most difinitly keep it in mind. I only have experience with FDM printers, since that it what my schools makerspace uses for prototypes too.
I'll write it down in our 3D priting guide for future refrence!
It would look better with indexed grip screws.. Tho its probably lore accurate as is, such care isn't typically taken with mass produced weapons. The non bullpup Boberg design drives me nuts but nice job especially the weathering.
It would have been cool if you had painted the body aluminum also. Then paint the green over it. As it got wear and tear the aluminum underneath may have shown.
It looks very cool (or at least nerd-cool!), but they scaled that gun down a LOT. Guns in 40K are silly-huge. IRL even a Space Marine could not actually hold a bolter or even a bolt pistol no matter how strong he was; the effect of gravity and leverage would make it impossible for him not to tip over. As for running across bridges and such like, carrying a gun the weight of a car engine probably isn't very safe or practical.
Most of 40k is ridiculous, in a fun way.
From the Deathwatch Core Rulebook (weights in kilograms/puonds):
-Bolt Pistol: 5,5 kg/12 lb
-Bolter: 18 kg/40 lb
-Combi-weapon (options given are Plasma, Melta and Flamer): 25 kg/55 lb
-Storm Bolter: 26 kg/57 lb
-Heavy Bolter: 68 kg/150 lb
-Chainsword: 10 kg/22lb
-Power Sword: 5kg/11lb
-Combat Knife: 2kg/4.4 lb
It is not as heavy as you think ....
@@pablocamargo8744 most of these weren't as heavy as I thought they would be, however a 2 kg combat knife sounds way to crazy as that would get exhausting very fast but at the end of the day I guess they are super human
@@fauzyabdallah8158 yes they are ... Even without their Power Armour That's the point I think I read their weight is between 200kg and 350kg without the Armour. If I am wrong please correct me. IRL They would probably throw cannonballs like Garp. 😁😀
Remember the weapons in 40k are "hero scale", as in they are oversized. They would appear smaller in proportion to a real person than they do on the miniatures. It actually looks pretty reasonable (the magazine may be a *little* small, and the ejection port may be bit narrow) for a 4 round bolt pistol, given a bolt should be about the size of 12 gauge shotgun shell.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is bolt weapon magazines. Those things would never hold the number of rounds they say they will, except through magic...
Pleasing the algorithm.
all hail the algorithm!
@@minigamerjeonsofbattle9376 all hail the algorithm!
