Introduction: How to Make a Steampunk Nerf Maverick
Today we're going to take this Nerf Maverick, already modded, and paint it.
What We'll Paint:
Barrel
Shell
Cocking Mech
Barrel Release Button
Step 1: What You Need
You will need:
Nerf Maverick
Screwdrivers (phillips and flat)
Wire Cutters
Brown Spraypaint
Black Spraypaint
Metallic Spraypaint
And any details you wanted to add to the blaster (I used a funnel and lego gears)
Step 2: Opening the Blaster
Use the phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws. There are 7 bigger screws in the main blaster, 3 small ones in the cocking mech, and 1 hidden under the cocking mech. Then, use the flathead to pry the gun open.
