Hey everyone, thought I would post some progress on my latest non-Halo build: a RWBY concept weapon for the unreleased character Qrow. Since he is unreleased, and his weapon is very similar to Ruby's Crescent Rose, I figured I'd give my own design to the weapon. For the most part it'll look like Ruby's, but when it's all done there will be some visual differences. And because I don't like an easy project, I've decided to make it transformable! SO Here's some updates:
Started with a Nerf Longshot and hacked off the back stock. Then took off the front barrel and opened it up to get access to the inner cylinder so I could flip it to be external.
Added a little shark fin to a length of PVC pipe and fed that into the now external tube. This allows the external tube to slide up and down by 6", and will provide the slide up motion for the blade later.
Opened the gun up....lots of springs went flying everywhere lol. But had to open it to make sure I wouldn't cut through anything important to install the pieces of plastic at the back of the gun. These pieces allow me to attach the new back stock, and take it off when I transform it to gun mode. Those plastic pieces cam from some old toy lightsabers I had which then led to.....
The detachable stock! The first pic is of the scythe at full length and the second is of it all broken up.
I'll post more pics as I work on it, definitely need to fix the paint issue.
