Hey fellas. Finished this back in Feb or so but thought I should share it here since this is where I first heard about Plecter Labs all those years ago. This is my Bronze Hand Schaub Webley and Scott MKI done up in Boba Fett's ESB EE-3 style. It's powered by none other than Plecter Labs wonderful Blaster Core v4. Assembly was tough due to how much is in there. It's loud, bright, and beautiful (IMHO) lol.

Specs:
Hand Schaub Bronze Webley & Scott MKI flare gun
EE-3 conversion kit is a mix of Sidewinder and Stormrider parts from The Dented Helmet
Vintage Milbro 4x20 scope (mounted backwards just as it is in ESB)
Plecter Labs Blaster Core v4 electronic board (sound fonts: Boba Fett, Dutch (Predator), Bladerunner -all from RedArc, E-11, DL-44 re-Plecter Labs, Man With No Name -me)
7 segment bar graph by Calvary Custom Sabers (I built a faceplate for it)
Chassis parts from TCSS
Tri-Rebel RGB (red main flash and blue stun mode)
x2 18650 Li-Ion for 2600 mAh @ 7.4v
x2 Premium 28mm speakers from TCSS (one in the barrel, one at the rear)

The blaster is a real joy albeit heavy as lead. Not sure how much trooping I can actually do with it. I'll certainly take it out sometimes. I've attached some pics along with a video of me discussing the blaster when i first finished it. Hope you enjoy it!

Here is the video I made of it:

Awesome job! 

What material did you use over the bar graph to get the scanline looking effect?

Hey guys. Thanks for the kind words! The lined effect on the bargraph comes from me using some sort of mylar (or something similar) coated wire ribbon from the inside of a hard drive. I really liked the effect it gave. It also had a smoked color so the lighting came out nice. As far as the faceplate goes, I cut the design out of styrene using an exacto knife, then I wrapped it in ultra thin brass sheet material. I used some Birchwood Casey "Brass Black" to weather it to match the blaster. I really like the way it turned out. Gives it that extra little bit of cool.

Awesome -  That bargraph remains me of the Icebreaker on Destiny! I wish there was someone on the forums who did runs on blasters.  Sell it to me LOL!!

For anyone interested in the build thread for this can check it out at:

Making progress on ESB EE-3 - Page 2

I basically made an LED saber and placed it inside the barrel, lol! I had never built anything but a lightsaber before this. Stick with what you know, right?

You did an great job with that conversion! I like your bargraph more then mine ^^

Now we are two Bronze Webley EE-3 BCv4 owners on this planet ;)

And by the way, its not that heavy to troop! I was two days on Vienna Comic Con and i was no problem at all. Just let it rest on the right Belt pocket´s and you will be fine ;)

All the best from austria and up to the Top you EE-3 beauty!  :tongue:
