Cybertopian Handgun V2 (steampunk, cyberpunk, dystopian remix)

Step 3Building up the shape and hinge mount

Building up the shape and hinge mount
Next we need to build up the gun, and make various sections for attaching our 'bits' to it.

With this section, if you follow the pictures along, you can see me gradually start to build up a barrel, for each layer of cardboard i made a simple paper template to get the right shape.

Each layer was glued using pva glue, with this section you can glue them all down in one go, then tape in place.

Make note of the top and forward sections, where i made space for the old stapler section (top) and the hinge (forward)
