The bodywork and paint job make this Pulse rifle look movie accurate, amazing what you can achieve with hard work! A missed opportunity from the Alien franchise to make a Colonial Marine movie!

Looks pretty realsitic to me. Some folks simply "overdue" the weathering" and aging which sometimes looks ridiculous. Awesome job!

That’s looks awesome. I got the Archive paints for my Star Wars stuff. I’m not good with mixing colors so it’s great to have the actual colors. And I have trains so it works for that also. Enjoy your work and I always learn something from your videos.

An awesome job you did Chris. Im working on one now, i sanded down the nerf lettering with a hobby needle file, which only took about 10 mins to do (my fingers are hurting now) lol. I did use my dremel like you did on the aliens lettering. After you finished sanding off all the black markings off the mag casing, did you give the rest of the rifle a sand to remove the sheen before you primered?

I did not. I just primered. Just sanded the raised areas and black markings

Nice video, cool paint job. Quick question, did you paint the underside of the grenade launcher "slide" after painting it with it in the "fire position", vs the "charging position"? And does it still fire Nerf "darts/rounds" and "grenades"?
@modelsbychris
Жыл бұрын
Yes, I pulled back the slide and painted under as well in both positions. The grenade fires just fine. The bullets still fired fine after the first paint job. After this 2nd mod and removing the inner barrel, it will not get through a whole clip without jamming. The bullets can get stuck in the area you can see through above the grenade. In hind sight, I wish I would've removed maybe half the barrel. But I really got it for the look. Firing was not a priority

@@modelsbychris I picked one up a few months back and have been watching various mod videos on YT looking to see what can and can’t be done and how best to approach the main painting part of things (I don’t own an airbrush presently), so cans will have to do. I loved that black paint that you used on the barrel and receiver early in the video. Looks great in the photos later on. Did you seal the applied paints afterwards (after the weathering) or just leave as is?

The only ammo that comes out of a pulse rifle during fire is what is aimed at the enemy. M41A's use caseless ammo which does not require a heavy casing to be ejected each shot. Pretty much a form of rocket ammo.

That's correct, but the pulse rifle is a fictional gun made by taking a M1A1 Thompson, the front cage and pump from a Franchi SPAS 12, and a bunch of aluminum shrouds to link them together. The mechanical parts of those guns were still functional and exposed, so to make a screen accurate replica you need to take all of that into consideration and reproduce what is visible - even if what you see makes no sense based on the canonical description of a weapon.

Why would you highlight the brown bess with silver?? It's clearly a modern polymer gun. The Army doesn't have time to "paint metal" for each of their troops.
@ShorePlain
Ай бұрын
Now that you mention it, the screen used props have scuffs on both the black metal and brown bess, but I can't tell what color is under the brown bess. In Adam Savage's video, the Alien 3 pulse rifle is all black with seemingly silvery scuffs marks, and that one was converted from an Aliens rifle. Do you know anything?
