I kind of got a wild hair and decided to try and repaint a Nerf gun to look more "Star Wars-y."  This is my first time doing this and I really like how it turned out.  Yes, it still shoots darts Cheesy  I also made a leather holster for it so my wife can use it for a bounty hunter costume or so I can add it to my Jedi belt if I'm feeling cheeky.  Also, a little progress on my Jedi costume, I made the obi wit my wife's help.

Great job on the Obi and the blaster and holster both look fantastic.  If I didn't know better, I'd have thought that was an actual replica prop, not a Nerf gun.

Nice. I have the same one and did the same thing but went for a more stealthier look so painted it all black =] have to do a couple more touch ups though and then put clear coat on so the paint quits rubbing off. I had to glue the front barrel on mine more secure though, was a bit too loose for my likings. Yours looks sick though Tongue Mine also needs a holster

Gun looks nice and sharp. Never would think it was a Nerf gun

Thanks a ton, fellas!  I had a lot of fun doing this and will probably get a few more Nerf guns to repaint just for fun.

Post it up when you finish!  What clear coat are you using?  I used Krylon Matte Finish, it's a really durable flat clear coat.

That looks great. I really like what you did with the blaster. Really looks authentic.
