It’s Actually Well-Worn…
The 3D print file I used for the Webley Flare Gun was for a perfect version of the actual gun. While doing some research on the stock, I noticed that Fett’s stock has a chunk taken out of it. So, I must now try to replicate that stock damage…
I looked at as many screen shots and images on the internet that I could find that showed the damaged stock. I then penciled in the area that needed to be damaged.
I then took my soldering iron and started melting the plastic…
I continued melting it until I got the basic shape of the damage down.
Then I used the soldering iron to try and give the plastic “grain” lines. If you look at the damage on Fett’s rifle stock, you can see some areas where there is some splits along the wood grain. This is what i was trying to replicate.
I then used some heavy sand paper to smooth out the damaged area.
I then applied a coat of primer, to try and get an idea of how it was looking…
