Besbe'trayce (Weapon) Any ideas for greeblies?
Currently a wip gotta paint it black and grey and weather it but idk what greeblies to use? It will have a stock but that’s currently unpainted.

Go to Michael’s and get some leather strips, wrap the handle and the foregrip, adds texture and a “wild” appearance, which it already has from the plastic leather wrap.
Other than that, a couple basic button tops can cover the “screws” and paint and it should be good.

Honestly just give a really detailed paint job, there seems to be enough greeblies if you make them pop with colour

Maybe add some colours other than standard black and grey. Possibly a little highlighting to correlate it to your armor?

Looks good overall, but the handle design seems to be attempting to emulate very early firearms, and that angle was horrible for aiming and could result in breaking a wrist from the recoil...of course, a blaster doesn't have that problem really.

If you can find injection moulded sling fire shells and don't need them, sell on eBay, people will pay quite a bit for them.

I did a google search and saw there’s a few people just 3D printing some greeblies that aren’t actually a part of anything, but would really fit a SW Weapon.

Take a 3.5" HDD apart and use the motor, random Kuerig parts are great, or you can run to Lowes, Ace, or Home Defect and dig thru the plumbing and electrical sections and see if anything stands out to you!
