I had the original black plastick toy with double button sound effect activation back in the late 70's. Wish I still Had it. May try this. Thank you.

If being used for cosplay I'd recommend gluing some metal weights in the battery compartment and barrel so add some heft. This will make it sit more realistically in a holster.

Great Tutorial - I'm about to start mine - but I took all the orange off to plastic pasts - it comes apart pretty easy - I usually have trouble getting between the creases with paint cans - so I do the extra step of breaking it all down.

A tip for anyone who has a hard time thinning paints. I find a general recipe of 1 part paint and 2 parts thinner works. It works well for me as a general rule. I’m not a milk drinker so the milk consistency never really works well for me lol.

Mine turned out so awesome! Thanks for the tutorial. The only problem I had was getting that soot to stay on the nozzle from that weathering kit. It still looks amazing though.

Hello, thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment :-) I don't have a video of my T-21 build...I do have a high-level description of my build on my blog. I used templates from "Pandatrooper" and followed most of his instructions. The deviations I made from his build are what's in my blog entry. You can find it here: happytrooper.com/?p=5045

There is one online for around 85.00 USD that fits the Rubies version of the blaster. I ended up ordering one for my smuggler cosplay but haven't received it yet. I will most likely end up doing a review of it once I receive and try it out.

Respirator OR ventilation? No! Respirator AND ventilation. Phenolic compounds (i.e. Bondo, Fiberglass resin, polyester resins) aren't something to mess with. Organ damage and cancer are the most common side effects.

I would like this to be a gift for my little nephew. Can you do this and keep the sound it makes?
@HappyTrooperDotCom
@HappyTrooperDotCom 7 лет назад
Absolutely. In fact, you will cut off a few of the steps to do this. Don't seal the battery box with filler/putty. Leave it open so that your nephew can swap out batteries when needed. Also, its your call on whether or not to remove the front cover on the muzzle. It does act as a sort of protection, the speaker is right behind it, so maybe you'll want to leave that part on. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for watching and good luck on your project, your nephew will love it!
@buddharocket
@buddharocket 7 лет назад
HappyTrooper thank you! Would drilling holes also possibly hurt the sound too? Mine is in the mail :-)
@HappyTrooperDotCom
@HappyTrooperDotCom 7 лет назад
Drilling the holes on the side won't hurt the little speaker inside. It is tucked back inside the main barrel. There isn't anything behind those holes on the side, so you will be safe to drill.

@brocklydip
@brocklydip 7 лет назад
This video is great and I'm very interested in buying this gun and painting it up like you did. 1 question I have, the scope appears to be completely built into the gun unlike the real one in the movies, did you try to cut any gap or just left it they way it is? I'm concerned when I put the gun in the holster it will get hung up on the scope and I'm not sure if that will be acceptable for costume standards as well. Thanks in advance for your input.
@HappyTrooperDotCom
@HappyTrooperDotCom 7 лет назад
Hello, unfortunately, the scope is attached to the main body of the gun, there is no separation. This does make it less screen-accurate. I think it would take some creative cutting and filling to make it look seperated :( I left it connected to the body, as is. I use this as a display piece on my wall and also as a prop in short films, so I cannot speak on how it would fit in a holster.

@edwarddoernberg3428
@edwarddoernberg3428 7 лет назад
there is a bit of a buy-in price if you are not already in the hobby. i added up all the items with Amazon links listed in the description except the airbrush (no several paints and the sandpaper are also not included) and it comes to $200. spend that and you will have the supplies to paint and finish dozens of cheap toy guns, but to many familyes, $200 on non-essentials is an expense that needs serious thaught and planning.
@ravenkarlin
@ravenkarlin 5 лет назад
At that point just get a Denix Mauser replica and make an all metal one. For around a hundred dollars more than that $200 price point, you’ll have an almost 1:1 all metal replica. Trust me, it’ll be way better than any plastic blaster. For the metal one just ask a semi known smuggler “she’s got it where it counts, kid.”

C.A.K. Comedy It’s assumed in both Legends & the New Canon that the Galactic Empire would ban the DL-44 due to is being able to pierce through Imperial Stormtrooper armor.

CalitranoN 1 second ago I bought one on Etsy and it was $78.00 and it does not fire? does this process ruin the firing, i did replace the batteries
@HappyTrooperDotCom
@HappyTrooperDotCom 6 лет назад
No, it should not ruin the firing. In my video, I seal the battery compartment. This would obviously stop sound effects from being produced. If you don't seal the battery compartment, you can still swap out batteries, but, you can see that it is a battery compartment. I was going for looks as this is a prop weapon for display purposes only. I'm sorry that your prop doesn't have the sound effect :(

His dl-44 blaster wasn't special in any way. It was just a heavy blaster commonly found on the black market.
@SlasherIncorporated
@SlasherIncorporated 7 лет назад
He likely took another one off of one of Jabba's goons or was given one by somebody in the Rebellion. Like Uhuwek said, his DL-44 wasn't special in any way. The blaster is a common weapon, and not exclusive to him.
@Antiganos
@Antiganos 6 лет назад
Amanda White Could have been given to Fett to take to Jabba, or he just stole another one from somewhere, luke used a DL44 variant so in the star wars universe they're fairly common
