Few weeks ago I recieved my NERF LMTD ALIENS M41-A Blaster from Hasbro. I wasn't disapointed when unboxing that puppy but, of course, I had to make it...well, better!
Not seaking screen accuracy but to make something cool. Cheers!

Here's a little recap. First, fill all the hole with body filler. (red stuff/Bondo) Sand. Prime everything. Paint everything with satin black. Paint the "beige" with Rust-Oleum Nutmeg (not screen accurate but close enough for me) and then, weathering. Rub and buff for the metal scracthes. Washes with acrylic paint mixed with water. Rust powder and finaly, a clear coat to seal everything. Cheers!

    Nice one man. You have the old school movie magic craft in your blood for sure!
  • I was really surprised how well that looked without all the extensive modding and changes ive seen people do to these nerfs. Came out really well.
  • I love the fact that Adam is ‘watching over you’ on the wall
  • @Quaz7007
    I actually bought this and was thinking about making it look like the movie. After watching you and your skill level, looks like I'm stuck with the toy. Fun to watch. Looks amazing.

    ''The original color of the Pulse Rifles in Aliens has long been a cause of debate. The props originally used on set were actually painted in Humbrol 170 "Brown Bess", not green as is often erroneously stated (although due to on-set lighting, the weapons often appear to be olive green on-screen)''
  • just came here from watching Adam unbox his. im super impressed by the lengths you went through to mod this! very cool!
  • I've got one of these to do the exact same thing. Thanks for posting this! That weathering took it to the next level!!!
  • @blizatrex
    Well done. The sculpt looks like it lent itself to the repaint.
  • Great idea, and very nice work. As a fan from Aliens, I apreciate this homage.
  • Nice work! I just got mine in the mail not too long ago, can't wait to give this a shot.
  • Great build! Thanks for filming it!! Definitely going to be using some of your techniques as I modify mine :)
  • Excellent job! I've saved this to my collection of vids with people modding these and I'm getting great ideas from all of you, plus I have some of my own ideas.

    You surely found your path in this world!Congratulations!
  • @stacystec
    Great dedication! I don't know you couldn't resist the temptation to run around with the shop shooting imaginary chestbusters after that amazing overhaul. That final product looks like the ultimate toy!
  • @n2darkness
