My M90 Shotgun W.i.p.

[Akademee]

Sure thing. Just some quick specs on the thing, the original design called for it to be 48 inches long, but that was so big that my arm could barely reach the pump if the butt of the gun was in my shoulder!



So I scaled it back to 40 inches, and compared to a 6 foot guy like me, it seemed to be a perfect fit.

Well, everything in the UNSC was scaled up for the use of SPARTANS.

I just used some spare quarter-round I found in my basement, that particular one is oak, but it could really be anything from pine to plastic.

So now, along with my suit, the shotgun is finished, I should say, was finished about a month ago, but here it is ladies and gentlemen, my first scratch-build m90 shotgun with added shells for awesomeness.



Enjoy!

 

[Bryce Youtsey]

Totally Epic! i love it!

 

[Frozensnot]

Amazing...It turned out really good for a scratch build!



I wish I was as talented...



Are you going to add a little more paint? Because if you did, it would look even cooler!

I appreciate the compliments on how its good enough to mold and all, but it is definitely not my all around best work. If I were to make a model suitable for molding, I would do it the "leekegan" way and make it out of wood or some other very solid material first. But I do really appreciate the entusiasm, I plan on scratch making double SMGs for my ODST.

Pretty good work. The only comment I have is that you should add some battle damage and change the gray to a darker gray. That way it looks more like a real gun instead of a cartoon one. But you did do excellent work especially considering you did it from scratch.

 

[Akademee]

Nothing a little oil wash and a bit of dry brushing won't fix, I will definitely dirty them up for next time!

This is a sick build man! I love the shotty, but I haven't seen too many around. Yours came out great. Any chance we could get more detailed shots of the finished shotty?
