Johnson Arms - Prop Guns and related stuff

[Johnson Arms]

Hey guys, I've been a forum troll on 405th for a long enough and wanted to get more involved here on the site. I make prop guns, focused more on the painting than the fabrication at this stage until I can move into a larger workshop. I do commissions when time permits and I'm always up for working on someone's custom weapon. Drop me a line if you have any interest in this stuff and I hope you'll check out my blog for some of the 300+ guns I've done this past year

Since the site is HALO specific, I will try to focus on posting only those guns that are HALO related until I would hear otherwise, thanks for understanding

Regards,
Brian Johnson

Vigilon WIP

Lanard X6

A few other themes..

thanks again and feel free to post your stuff here, I enjoy checking it out too

These are some really nice nerd guns! I like the combinations of barrels! I did some similar stuff recently, but your paint jobs are beyond what i have done! from one n00b to another, this is some sick stuff!

Nice to see you here, Mr. Johnson. Although this isn't Halo related, here's my painted Alpha Trooper.

Haha, nerd guns, I do that all the time, hehe. Thanks a lot I've been doing it for about a year now so I'm looking forward to what I can produce in another year or two. Right now I'm just having a fun time with em and they help fill the open spots in my schedule!

I can't even tell what the Halo Guns are supposed to be, they're just painted nerf guns.
The only one I recognized was the Turret.

i just painted my nerf longstrike today.

Thanks, that one was a lot of work, but pretty fun to build. Being the first one it took a bit longer to do Ya, that's from my sub compact Glock, haha. Good for props too

Ya, you missed the point, I think.. I do replicas mostly and the nerf stuff is just fun to do when I'm not doing the other. I don't try to chop the bodies too much because they just get to be sloppy looking with all the patching. I do them in a style of that "universe", but never meant to be exact. I'm more of a painter than a fabricator anyways, so that works for me

Ya, that was me commenting on the other guy who wrote "nerd gun"...but yeah, my iP4 does that correct all the time.

Thanks for that! They're all sold or orders so already spoken for. I don't get much time to do side projects, but when I do, I try to do more detail than normal.

 

[Johnson Arms]

Most of these are close to complete, but still a few days out. All function except the longshot with the skinny barrel inserted. Thanks for checking the out


Lots of nerf scouts in the works..some of these you'll see are not quite finished

Longshot sniper rifle (awaiting bipod stock for an actual rifle) Scope was a stand in..a bit more detailing and it's all done

Spectre - Simple Dieselpunk look for a book trailer (becoming more popular I guess)

Almost done messing with this one

Alternate Mass Effect themed Vigilon

and to roud it off, another Lanard X8 in a brass and steel color combo

Ok finally some more photos to share. As usual, time had to be spent working and not getting to play around on the computer last week. Here's a mixture of WIPs and also finished guns. The crappier photos are from the phone. I cannot wait to get the new 4S for the better camera alone hehe

Long-barrel sniper rifle

A couple props for a friend's little film project. No real closeups planned so I left the logos on there. Hey, I did the work for free!

Mini steampunk styled blaster

Green Hornet Gas Gun inspired colors on this X6

and some assorted photos

Ok, here's the newest variation on the N7 Stampede. Changed it up a little to be unique for the charity auction it's going to be a part of. Hope you guys like it and please check out the site if you get a chance, it's a very good cause!
