It's so tempting to take short cuts with a piece like this, but this video is a good illustration of why it's best to take your time and do it right the first time. Excellent result and a beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing this one.

[@moffin25]

Looks so real its crazy... the paint job is amazing!

[@PropsNstuff]

moffin25 Thank you. I try my best😉

[@bananaman-we1xs]

I literally finished printing the ace of spades this morning.

[@vertical_parallel]

Congrats! I just got my sad foam version.

[@bananaman-we1xs]

Will be the sunspot next, I already have the exact file.

[@figgymentum6065]

What type of material should you use?

[@bananaman-we1xs]

I use pla and pla plus

[@someman66]

This was, and is, my favorite weapon from d2. There are others guns that look cool, but this was my first exotic gun. It may not be powerful in the meta but it has a place in my heart. Seeing it done true justice by you was great.

[@bugle0075]

It may not be the best right now, but in Beyond Light it is going to be insane with the hand cannon changes that are coming

I’d love to see more destiny builds this is so good! Maybe a large scale build? Like a recluse or a maybe a huge build like a beloved or a gnawing hung? I’m sure it would be expensive though.

[@TeamLeaderPG]

Golden makes a really nice fluid acrylic for a realistic gold color and you could also try Dawler Rowney fluid acrylics, or Jacquard metalic acrylic. When you're doing a rattle can on something like that from Krylon, Rustoleum, etc, you want to do it in multiple super light coats. Literally coat it as light as possible maybe warm the can under water before applying, and shake it really good, but try not to shake the can above the project where nozzle tip build up can drip down. Like the airbrush you also have to mind keeping the can nozzle clean, a dry cloth will work for spray can, or if it gets bad run a solvent over it like paint thinner. Spray can is thicker and it will build up very quickly, you gotta try to keep the build up from blasting on to the work area or it will shoot out spotty lumps. The enamels are probably good if you can get the right colors, but with super fine details like this you really have to work at getting the perfect viscosity, so it will be very fluid, but not runny or overly wet when it is applied. Multiple layers of very thin coats will take a long time, but it will achieve the highest quality as long as you know when to stop. Every color is different as the pigments are different, so it takes trial and error. Also the various solvents are gonna be different, some dry quicker than others, leave oily residue behind, etc. Excellent work on this Sunshot!!

[@dfcprops3849]

Really nice work and finish. The Sunshot is one of my favorite pistols from Destiny too... the design is so alien, yet has a stunning elegance, adding to it's uniqueness. Also, you sure have dedication with all that sanding/filling.

[@PropsNstuff]

Prop Rocks Thank you Mr. Prop Rocks;) And yes, the sanding filling realy tested my patience on this one. But I did a lot of minor mistakes, so I had to fix them. Worth it in the end.

[@dfcprops3849]

@@PropsNstuff Yes, definitely worth it in the end because now you get to brag about such a cool prop! :D I'm kidding about the bragging part... it is a very nice display piece.

cool. But in my opinion, for a correct and correct connection, it was necessary to provide pins and mating holes on the details, then there will be no displacement during gluing)

You should make a prop of ' Not forgotten ' from destiny 2. Nice sunshot prop

[@-MrFozzy-]

I’d really appreciate a video on the whole process of finding the file/files what you do to save them and putting them on a usb …..basically the whole process from finding a file to pressing print….I’m thinking of taking the jump in printing, but not being a 3D modeller I always just thought it was all too complicated, but you’ve shown that there are great files out there. So please consider a TOTAL beginner guide. Thank you

[@PropsNstuff]

Hello again Mr. Chris😉 Yes, that's an excellent idea for sure. I do have a lot of projects I wanna share going forward. But I feel my strength and passion is more in the preparation, painting and adding that little extra details. Sometimes I'll share the slicing, setup, printing process etc. But there is a lot of really good videos out there on that already. And that's the people I try and learn from. So for now at least, I'll stick with making stuff I love, and hope it helps or inspires fellow hobbyists. I really appreciate the feedback and idea😉 Have a good one Sir, Cheers😉

[@MMMo-vt1jh]

For your primer or barrier coat you may want to try an epoxy. Light coats are key and you may want to give it like 1-2 hours cure between till you have a solid coat. Your enamels are perfectly fine though for the top coats though as epoxy isn’t great for topcoats as it oxidizes over time and can either yellow or powder.

[@MMMo-vt1jh]

As an aside I would always recommend a clear coat to seal up the final work.

[@berndarndt9924]

Nice tutorial. I don't like the finish as much as you do but that is subjective.

[@dougbrady8386]

Would you mind telling me what 3d printer, air brush etc., equipment you use? I want to start making destiny guns for my gaming room just like this and am trying to figure out what equipment to get. Any help would be appreciated. This was great, so hoping to replicate. Thanks!!!! And great video!

[@74cypres]

Hey dude remember me I was the one that suggested some destiny guns love your sunshot my new best anyways I hope to see you do one of my suggested destiny weapons love u r bids seen all of them

[@RotrossStudio]

Hey! I´m looking into starting with 3D printing mainly to print my own props and statues in very high detail. After seeing reviews I would conclude that a resin printer would be the best way to go. I see that you work with a PLA printer for your props. Wouldn´t a resin be a lot easier to work for way for more detail and less body work?

[@user-zz9dj4ze9q]

Cool gun, but can you make Ace of Spades from Destiny 2

[@Jeerin_]

it might've been easier to glue together perfectly with some guide pins

[@AAA-dy9hj]

ohh yeah

[@nekodestroyer1901]

The gun in destiny 2 is decent but in the right hands amazing the only thing that makes it really good is the enemys screen explodes in blinding color

Hey there😉 I'm sorry but I just don't remember?.......It's so long ago. And I've acquired new types of printers since then. If I had to guess. I bet I printed them separately, just flat on the print bed. with a brim on the outside, just to prevent warping. Good luck with your build😉 Cheers

what sort of 3d printer would i need to do this sort of stuff

[@PropsNstuff]

Hello Hells Illusions😁 Well, I did this one only using a Dremel 3D45. Older model with a small print volume. But it did the job. Today however. I would go for a bigger resin printer like the Elegoo Saturn when it comes to mid size prop like these. If you combine that with a larger FDM printer. Then I guess you could make whatever you want. Big, small, detailed, etc. Thats what I hope to have by the end of this month. Happy "3D printer" hunting Sir👍 Cheers
