Rotator X-8 "Piece of 8" by LGC

And so it begins....
Kicking off my first post of LGCs work with his Rotator X-8s
These are lanard blasters which are hard or overpriced to get your hands on which just makes me want one even more, especially when they are made to look like this.

These things just look amazing when painted and look like they were made to be steampunked.
More awesomeness after the jump!

Here is what the rotator x-8 looks like stock.  It isn't a very impressive blaster its a springer that you need to prime using the knob on the bottom of the grip.
The hammer of the blaster does actually move with the trigger pull.

Here is a WIP pic before paint of a clear x-8 which as I understand can't even be found in the US.  LGC seems to have no limit to random steampunky bits to build his art.  I personally can't identify any of the pieces.  This makes me think there is a high possiblity that this may have at one time been owned by jerm who had one shipped in before selling off his collection on ebay.

Another WIP with a black base coat

Followed by the metallic effect rounding out the look.






If anyone knows where to pick these up beside on amazon for $25 + shipping please leave a comment!
