Painting a Nerf Blaster with Bill Doran.

[@MikeS-um1nm]

God I love these guys! Grown men who refuse to grow up, and love to be creative by customizing toys, are the best and most fun kind of guys!!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Ha ha thanks Mike for your support.

[@punishedprops]

Great job Ted! You can come to my shop and use up all my spray paint any time. =)

[@EvilTedSmith]

Next time stock up before I get there Ha ha..

[@Zulfburht]

Finally someone who disassembles the nerf gun before painting it. The proper way of modding

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks. It was a little scary but it worked.

[@kitirena_koneko]

It's the ONLY way to mod a Nerf blaster!

[@CharismaticCryptid]

I'm a simple man, I see a video with Bill and Ted, I click like!

[@kitirena_koneko]

I love Nerf blasters because they're really easy to take apart and modify. If you're not sure how to modify the internal mechanisms, there are roughly 10,000 videos on KZbin on how to safely mod Nerf blasters of every type, ranging from just painting the exterior to major modifications like changing the Mega blasters to accept the standard size darts to all kinds of crazy mods. Plus, if you're afraid of screwing up, you can find older models like the Maverick and Recon at pretty much any decent thrift store or garage sale for dirt cheap, as well as in varying conditions on Ebay. Also, the different blaster lines (like the Mega and Zombie Strike series) really lend themselves to being modded into sci-fi or Steampunk weapons, depending on the style.

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks for all cool tips.

[@kitirena_koneko]

Hey, it's the least I can do to try (pathetically) to repay you for all the cool videos! (Yeah, like that could ever happen! -_^) Oh, and on the subject of Nerf modding, here's one from my roomie Derek: as you remove the screws from a nerf blaster, take a spare sheet of cardboard, trace the outline of the blaster you're disassembling onto it, and punch small holes into the outline in the same places as the screws you remove, then put the screws into the corresponding holes so that it's easier to put them back in the same places you removed them from.

[@acledfloyd]

This is my first Evil Ted video but I’ve heard other makers reference him many many times.

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks. I too make videos on crafting and prop making.

[@Riceball01]

What I like to do to weather guns is to paint the gun with a base coat of silver after the primer. Then, after I've painted the black, or whatever color on top, I then lightly start sanding away at edges, and any other area I want to expose the silver, with some 0000 steel wool. I find that this gives me a lot of control over how much of the silver I want to expose, both in terms of area and amount, so I can have areas where the silver is only just starting to show and areas where it's fully exposed. I've also found that using 0000 steel wool over the cheap Home Depot semi-gloss black spray paint (which is really glossy actually) dulls it down to a nice, proper semi-gloss and does a pretty good job at replicating the blueing found on a lot of guns. The only down side is that it doesn't allow you to get small recesses, so those areas will still have the original finish, but everywhere else looks great though.

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks for the cool tip!

[@GreekGadgetGuru]

Never noticed the screw driver grip! Such an awesome paint job

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks.

[@dazperson2531]

Hi

[@TheGeronimojack]

Bill and Teds' excellent (mod job) adventure!

[@Intro2Love]

Bill and Ted's excellent prop journey😉

[@EvilTedSmith]

Ha ha that was fun.

[@ixiladams4275]

Love Bill! Love when you guys are together super cool stuff!

[@EvilTedSmith]

I love Bill too!

[@GraceWillow]

I love the gun you modded Ted!! The spinny saw is my favorite.

[@duckrutt]

It does have a strong Gears vibe going on. Feeling better?

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks ZonZonZonbi. It was so cool as is all it needed was a cool paint job.

[@mobspeak]

Bill and Ted, this is truly EXCELLENT...!!!!

[@notprops]

Really great work, both of you! You gave me A LOT of hints to finish my armor AND doing the gun that I'll have to build ^_^

[@EvilTedSmith]

Well thank you for watching and subscribing.

[@subliteral]

Great video as always. My only suggestion would be to add something like a "beauty flyby" shot of the prop at the end so we could get a good look at the details you've applied.

[@EvilTedSmith]

Aw your right... You can see it really good here. www.ebay.com/itm/Nerf-Zombie-Strike-Brainsaw-Blaster-Modified-and-Painted-by-Evil-Ted-Smith/232501109946

[@spartanmac911]

Hello my old family friend, you've come to capture my childhood again..

[@matichorjak4166]

damn Ted your brainsaw looks amazing

[@masonl87]

How have you not taken advantage of these collaborative videos and put them under a Bill and Ted moniker?!?

[@TheGeronimojack]

If they do that , they will need to make Bill and Ted robots similar to the second movie. Station!

[@troybelanger974]

The rub and buff looks awesome. Can you explain how to do the rub and buff better, and what color you used?

[@toebeansvideos]

Awesome work, Ted!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks Britt and for the helpful tip on taking a photo before taking the gum apart.

[@mpolleys]

I'd have done a little bit of "blood" spatter on the chainsaw bits as part of the weathering process. Make it look a bit more zombie apocalypse-esque, you know?

[@BaldBeardedMiddle-agedGuy]

I used nerf for my steampunk cosplay. Nice work

[@christopherheffner]

looks great Ted!!!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thanks!

[@MikeS-um1nm]

This may sound kind of sick and evil, and I wouldn't recommend doing it, BUT, with a little extra (and perhaps PERVERSE) INGENUITY, you could turn this toy into a pretty DANGEROUS and REAL weapon! I don't imagine it would be all that hard to install a real, circular saw blade, into this "toy", and it wouldn't be a "toy" anymore!!

[@BlueStarBrony]

Lol that was great! Very entertaining and very enlightening! You guys are great together you should make more videos together. 8:57 That's beautiful! 9:04 Now it's ugly side.... lol 12:10 How Dare You! lol I can't help but ask because I've bought several painted Nerf guns, however I don't think they are sealed...So do you think I could spray them with something like Krypto without jamming the parts or do I need to take the entire gun apart?

You make amazing things just wow !!!

[@Reeser00]

I watched both of your videos. I’m curious what they sold for?

[@EvilTedSmith]

Sorry, I can't remember.

[@netherworkscostumes1003]

Excellent work!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thank you.

[@neilperry2224]

Also to help you on how tools collect dirt, oil ect look at used tool in a tool box.

[@TheYBlizzard]

Hey Ted! Good seeing you at D*C! Keep up the good work!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thank you.

[@vladimirmarkov2047]

Groove!

[@JohnFleshman]

I bet doing a more steam punk type thing would be easy. I like black n sinister myself. lol.

[@hawaiianpunch6534]

What was the mix on the black wash? Was it just water and acrylic paint?

[@rhythmrainbow]

Sweet!!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Sweet that you subscribed.

[@TrashCanComputerChris]

Gives me a Freddy Kruger vibe to it or Friday the 13th

[@neilperry2224]

Don't you think the combined shoulder stock/ammo storage is rubbish. They are always loose or the stock is poorly designed. How about using 3D design software to re-design the storage/stock more true to life.

[@harnden8166]

How would you put LED's on a costume?

[@boxcarz]

I'm annoyed by the yellow coil on top not being painted on both sided.

[@EvilTedSmith]

You can paint yours any way you want!

[@TheGeronimojack]

With a name like "Evil" Ted, I expected Ted to add blood on the blade of his nerf gun.......

[@MondoSchizo]

You guys look like a discount Michael Stevens and Adam Savage

[@zhenjian8459]

good job

[@EvilTedSmith]

Thank you.

[@kynacheung1133]

13:16 "0 Days Glitter Free"

[@centrevez2075]

that gun looks like the weapon from the gears of war franchise. frankie croft smales

[@shaunlewis286]

looks like you are losing big time ted. Gutted you were the one who got me into prop building

[@EvilTedSmith]

Ha ha yeah but the Brain Saw was so cool as is... I just painted it.

[@PsychoAxeMan]

I so put a bid on the brain saw

[@EvilTedSmith]

Yes! Thank you.

[@aileedubaron]

I wonder what the aquanet is for.

[@punishedprops]

Ailee Dubaron Ted needs to look good while he paints! Actually it's for sticking 3D prints down to the print bed.

[@EvilTedSmith]

I always look good when I paint.

[@patrickkarrow]

+Evil Ted Smith where can I buy rub and buff?!

[@EvilTedSmith]

Right here...amzn.to/2ECuHp1

[@patrickkarrow]

Evil Ted Smith thank you so much!!!

[@byturbo27]

hey Ted the blades in backwards hahaa

[@EvilTedSmith]

I've taken a look at them. They are not backwards. The chain saw wheel teeth are facing the same directions as the gun.

[@byturbo27]

you could be right, think mite be camera angle just looked like the blades had a pitch. My bad dude! sick finish tho and must confess I am alredy seeking sum nerf guns 🖒
