Time for a hellpistol to provide a bit more firepower (from the same forgeworld as the laspistol)

I'm not glueing any of the small details on until after the first coat of filler primer, to make access easier for sanding

Another tip - put some body filler on the areas that show the most layer stepping and sand it down before the filler primer. I'm sure I'll be adding some more filler, but it's good to get the worst areas a bit tidied up first

Junestealer keeps rolling along. This hefty Aberrant can do more than just swing a hammer, he can fire a Lascannon! Watch out!

Bolt Pistol, Laspistol or Plasma Pistol?

Commander Krole: *shrugs* *hand gestures*

Melpomanei: "What for? Each has advantages. The laspistol is reliable, efficient, and cheap; the bolt pistol devastating against unarmoured or lightly armoured targets; and the plasma pistol, though temperamental, is powerful enough to make a mockery of conventional armour."

Commander Krole: *hand gestures*

Melpomanei: "For my personal use, I would take the bolt pistol. The laspistol's advantages do not factor into my considerations, and my usual prey relies on more esoteric defences than mere plasteel and adamantine."

Rogue Trader Game: Into the Storm; Session 1

So I'm a commissar, I'm supposed to have a weapon, so, this is my metal laspistol. More specifically, this is a Voss Pattern Hellpistol, from the Warhammer 40,000 setting. It is made almost entirely from smithed metal to fit my hand measurements, with glass lenses and brass pre-Heresy* emblems.

This is the showcase post, I will also do a making-of post with all the background images and how it came to be. The short of it is, I designed it, my friend welded the bare body, and then I prepped, sculpted the details and finished it. I would say re. hours spent, it was an equal division of time between myself and my buddy. Note: Something went very badly wrong with the lacquers and they need redoing. I know.

I've been told by other cosplayers and gamers that we "should" have used foam, resin, plastic or even 3D printed parts. From day one I had folk saying metal was very silly. But, I wanted this age-worn, tactile metal object in my hands. Something you could believe has outlived dozens of previous owners in a universe where metal is valued above men.

It does not have a trigger. There are two main reasons for this;

- From a distance, or to the general public, it looks a bit like a Mauser or antique pistol. I wanted to be able to be able to very quickly remove any doubt that it's a functioning gun, if requested to show it to staff or security. - Carrying it and posing is a lot easier without a welded trigger, and allows other (larger) people to put their finger in there.

FAQ: - No, I can't make you one. - No, I can't sell you this one. - Yes, Dan Abnett signed it; his wife took photos, it was sweet. - It weighs 1.914 KG or 4lb and 3.5oz - Why a Hell-Pistol? Because it was the first piece of gear my Rogue Trader Seneschal was awarded in the first ever tabletop RP I ever played in, an archeotech Hell-Pistol.

*It is not particularly lore-abiding, primarily because I don't care, and also because I've never met anyone offline or in person who cares about there being a 30K icon on a 40K gun. They're too busy going, "IT'S A FREAKIN LASPISTOL!!!"
