HOW TO TURN A $10 TOY BLASTER INTO A $500 STAR WARS REPLICA (EASY)

[@noahabel.mp4]

Dang this looks like a legit movie quality prop! I've always wanted to do this with my old nerf guns haha, nice work Carly!

[@GreyMatterStew]

I recommend doing the Nerfs. You can get some really cool results.

[@Andrew-se4tg]

@@GreyMatterStew agreed...

[@noahallen4254]

No body at my school likes Star Wars so thank you for keeping the spirt alive, and may the force be with you

[@Vorcov]

6:38 it's amazing how much the dry brushing transforms this - you've got a lot of talent bringing this to life!

[@SavannahCarnley]

It looks REALLY good and high quality, hell yeah, nice work Carly :)

[@carlyking]

Thank you so much!! Love your profile pic 🙏🏼

[@shoemakerluis]

Really nice work! Particularly the weathering turned out great. I would maybe recommend a primer before the enamel paint but on the other hand if you want a bit of that orange tone to show through, that seems to work great too

[@davonbarber1199]

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match... " Nicely done! 🔥👑

[@ArmordilloGamers]

My dad bought that same dremel a year or so ago. Such a useful tool, very Poggers indeed! Keep it up with the great content! I hope to see some Martial Arts based vids in the future!

[@carlyking]

Absolutely!! coming soon :) thank you!

[@jedironin380]

Great job! Wouldn't believe it was a bright-colored toy beforehand.

[@kyleadkins7567]

This was an awesome video. Has Solo is an iconic character and has the most recognizable blaster n STAR WARS history. I am moved by ur work and detail, good job. May the force be with u Master Carly King

[@coryschlichting3517]

Carly, this is so FREAKIN' cool! Does your awesomeness know no bounds? Methinks not. Please continue to bring us these amazing Star Wars videos. Maybe one day I'll get my man cave I've always wanted... and have enough money to buy/make all these sabers and blasters and such to decorate it. A guy can dream... until then, I'll happily live vicariously through you.

[@Bordereffect87]

I hope you had better luck getting the spray paint lids off this time. It looks amazing I may have to consider trying it.

[@donc5220]

You are so Talented ,I just battlewashed a ultrasaber I had collecting dust.I loved this.

[@o.k_dan7595]

1. Its great to see girls into this hobby, dont see that to often 2. Amazing work it came out great 3. Keep it up and and may the force be with you too

[@Ty_the_Druid]

AWSOME!!! You finally did the Han Solo weathering project, Awesome job!!!!

[@jarrarwinks8470]

Always prime when painting like this, takes a bit longer, but is super helpful, also using a bit of black spray paint facing into the barrel is good, the a little around, adds a nice natural looking bit of weathering and makes it more uses looking. Anyways, other than that great job, really nice looking.

[@salvatorelodato7220]

Kenobi once said “so uncivilized”…NO, this is better than any lightsaber, u are so talented. I love the color and “worn out effect”, this looks like a prop used in some movie/good fan film production. Nice job (ALSO congrats for the 19k on yt)

[@anatolithecousin9308]

Wow, you did a great job. Loved how the weathering came out. I did one of these a year ago. I’m thinking of 3D printing one.

[@aaronkroeker7716]

Omg so incredible! The arts and crafts are strong with this one!

[@ryanmarkham2521]

Loved this video! Get a respirator for future painting projects. Makes all the difference with the fumes.

[@mattanderson5627]

I am absolutely going to be using this video as a tutorial for when I paint a Kyle Katarn Bryar pistol that will be 3D printed. You saved me like $50 bucks. Thank you!

[@annie_j]

Great work Carly! Definitely given me a new project for the holidays. It looks so realistic too!

[@MikeB12800]

Dremels are amazing!!! So versatile!! I know we’ve been wearing masks for the past 2 years, but when your painting or sanding, it doesn’t hurt to wear a mask and keep the fumes and dust out of your mouth and lungs. Those silver touches look amazing!!

[@markmunoz1188]

This looks amazing! No way I would think that was a $10 plastic toy blaster. Fantastic job Carly! Great video as always. ❤️🤓🔥

[@TreyEversman]

Looks awesome and I LOVE your wallpaper!!

[@GadgetTrish]

I love that feeling of working on a project and you liking the outcome. This was very clever and I just subbed!!!

[@christopherwhitford831]

First off primer I recommend tamiya grey let fully dry then your black coat several coats, after fully drying brush your silver on the muzzle, the look up dry brushing yours looks over weathered in that dept. between that and not priming your handles and using a clear coat instead of a matte coat could have made a good looking blaster to a great looking authentic replica

[@koshkjiing8449]

That looks sooo good I might have to do some stuff like this

[@carlyking]

Thank you! You should!!

[@AndrewDFT]

A most impressive paint job indeed!!!! I too need to do this and add it to my prop collection =)

[@Itspanko]

I have one of these I might be able to do this it looks very good

[@davidhayz330]

Great job 👍😎 I reckon that would be a great competition prize,our very own replica Star wars merch with some Carly flair

[@ziggurat-builder8755]

I did this a few weeks ago with a cheap Mauser toy gun from China. Now it looks awesome.

[@MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup]

5:35 - prime it with white spray first.

[@Imperial_Collection]

Now this has been a great Solo blaster tutorial Carly and love watching your content as it is always great to watch.

[@mattskinner4153]

Great video! I just bought one myself. Now time to paint! Oh who is the artist/song title of the last song you played? I love it

[@Alex.Burg04]

Hey Carly a very important thing when using the dermal is to wear a mask because you don’t want to inhale the plastic

[@perikaso6969]

Great tutorial 😯!!! I need to do this!! Came out awesome 👍🤘

[@kiranjohn]

First the lightsaber makeover now a blaster :) Please make this a long series its fun to watch and looks cool !!! 👍🔥😎

[@indianniejones5]

Where is your 'ik what I have to do but I don't know if I have the strength to do it' crewneck from?

[@josiahpeterson17]

Wow. This really turned out to be great. Awesome work!

[@MrCoombzy]

Carly, I know you aren't British but I'm going to say it anyway... you're a wizard. Seriously, continue this series with more toys, it's super enjoyable!

[@HitaxasTV]

Using the dremel over the X-Acto knife and sculpting tool was a great idea. And I vibe with the worry of using one for the first time. My first time using one was on the metal shielding plate to a Playstation 3 I modded, which was nerve racking on it's own. Finished result of the blaster is pretty neat. I personally would have looked for a way to remove the screw on the grip to hide it's toy origin. But, for a "conversion", you still did a fantastic job!

[@Andrew-se4tg]

Hey Carly, Awesome video! Always great to see another star wars fan! You definitely have a new subscriber! May the force be with you always...👍💚

[@kurisa2780]

Carly makes this look like an art form

[@CainMetty]

Just a nitpick: The canon barrel should not be 100% silver since that version of the blaster is not the rotj one. He had it all black in anh
