That must have taken a lot of time! How, may I ask, did you get the blue cylinder to illuminate? I would love to know, as I am working on a steampunk gun, and the idea of a "plasma reservoir" has been calling to me, and having it glow would add all the more of an effect to it. Very nice gun by the way. :)

The blue cylinder was created using a translucent plastic tube with a small craft light that I found at Joann Craft Store. The light has a small button to easily switch it on and off and it also changes color. Thank you for your comment and your interest. Have fun making your gun I would love to see how it turns out.

I used carefully applied woodgrain contact paper and I used a small multi color craft light, that I found at Joann Craft store, and a translucent plastic tube for the lighting. It took me a couple of weeks to make this gun. Thanks vey much for your interest.

This is fantastic. I am surprised how much you did with it, my nephews have the very gun you started with. I am very impressed with the 'functionality' of it. You averted a huge gripe I have with steampunk in general, many glue gears and cogs and bits on which serve no purpose and are not at times even connected to one another. I groan at that style. Slapping it on and calling it good. I dabble with 'inventions' of my own on paper and try to make them cohesive, even if fanciful. This is a stellar example set forth of 'Here is how to do it properly'. Many, many fine details on this piece. I love the pulleys ,and they look functional! Simple, highly stylish, and superbly done.

Thank you very much! I feel the same way you do about items with a few gears glued on being called steampunk. I may not always be as successful as I was with this mod but I always try to keep my designs looking functional. Thanks again for your thoughtful comment.
