Billhag Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 As many of you know, I do love an E11 blaster , from the Kenner / Hasbro all the way up to a full on Sterling. But one prime example of this fine weapon as always eluded me (mainly because of living in the UK) the Hyperfirm. So after successfully establishing a International imitation firearms smuggling syndicate with the head of a notorious Texas cartel I have finally got my grubby little hands on one of these little beauties. I can see why everyone loves ‘em, they’re well built, have some fantastic detail and you can throw this sucker at the wall and the thing won’t have a dent in it. As always, not content on leaving things as they are, I thought that I’d have a little play around with it to see if I could ‘pep’ it up a little bit without going over the top (I came thisssssssssss close to putting a real scope and counter on it ). So first off I applied some subtle weathering with some antique pewter and vintage gold glaze .Then I added a simple ‘D’ ring, drilled the front barrel out, stuck a strip on the ejector port and painted it. I then changed out the power cylinders and messed around with the scope and pimped it up ‘Billhag’ style…oh yesss . Scope Tricks I wanted to keep it nice and simple and still be able to Troop with it and not worry if it gets bashed about. I know the mods I’ve made are nothing special but I thought that I’d share them so that others may get some ideas and have a play around for themselves. OK, bring on the pictures…….owww, we all love pictures…loads ‘n’ loads of pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Looks really nice Bill. Makes mine look sad, very sad. Methinks I need to take some drastic measures (e.g. get in trouble budget wise with the spouse). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
