Boltgun (Lifesize)

thingiverse

Due to updates/changes, please download as of 10/04/2021. The legendary Boltgun, wielded by the mighty Adeptus Astartes. This lifesize version currently sits at around 563mm long,100mm wide and 430mm high, including the removable cartridge. PLEASE READ FIRST I have attempted to make parts relatively quick and easy to print and assemble. I have included an exploded view that should greatly assist with assembly. There are two views available. One of the entire model, and one of the Cartridge Insert section. I advise you study each before assembling. The parts are numbered on the files, with lower numbers starting at the front (barrel end) of the model. In addition, some parts are labelled L and R (Left and Right). This is relative to aiming down the Sights of the...ahem..."model". The "Grip Cover" parts (x2) have 0.5mm guides to correctly distance them from the other Cover. You may wish to remove these for Aesthetic. I also advise assembling the Core first, as all other parts fit around it. I did what I could to scale it to Astartes but it probably comes up more sized to Adeptus Sororitas, or maybe Catachan. Feel free to print Trigger 1 and Trigger 2 to scale it to yourself first. PRINT LIST IMPERIAL BOLTGUN -Print one of each part (BG), except; BG Chaos Spikes 1, BG Chaos Spikes 2, BG Eye Of Horus Sigil, BG Chaos Undivided Sigil. CHAOS BOLTGUN -Print one of each part (BG) except; BG Sights 2, BG Adeptus Astartes Sigil, BG Aquila Sigil. DO NOT attempt to print the following files, as they are for display only. Boltgun. Boltgun Imperial. Boltgun Chaos. Boltgun Instructions. Cartridge Insert Ins. Please feel free to ask any questions if you require assistance. Happy building! Though designed from scratch by myself, this is a life-size recreation of a model that was designed by Games Workshop. All rights reserved. P.S. I've printed an alternate version of this model. Although it assembled fine, I have made significant changes to make printing quicker and cheaper. So if something doesn't work, please let me know.
