With the latest delivery of the terminator partwork came the special free gift all the subscribers have been waiting for: The rifle.
All in all it’s very nice. The only metal part is the grip/ trigger, but it has some nice detail in it.
I decided I could make it better though.
First the silencer looking bit had a couple of seam lines that needed to be removed, and it was repainted.
I started the main work with making it look more metallic, using some C1 metalizer powder. This is just polished on and polished off.
I also added some lighter metallic paint to add scratches and wear.
With some Nuln oil to darken down some other areas, I had it looking more realistic and more like the reference pictures I had found.
It could be better, but I’m happy to have improved it from the delivered version.
I may do some more to it when it gets held in his hand, but for now it’s done.
The video is here.
