Dalek Gun prop


This blog is about a finished project from a couple of years ago where I made a Dalek Gun prop from the new series Doctor Who Episode Witch's Familiar.

Peter Capaldi as Doctor Who in the episode "Witches' Familiar"



Finished gun firing, barrel lights up similar to a lightsaber prop

Gun on standby with led lights on, above left, disassembly of front half for transportation and access to the flashlight for the barrel is shown

Screencaps from Witch's Familiar


The Doctor holding the Dalek Gun down while Missy is trying to trick him into shooting a very special Dalek.
The tabs and LEDs with hole-locking collars (a common standard for modern LED mounting) are visible here, though the LEDs at their centre aren't lit for some reason.
The tri-pronged coupling at the back end is also visible, as is one of the two 45 degree forking cable outlets.


Missy (played by Michelle Gomez) shooting open a door. The array of LEDs at the back of the ball joint is fully visible

After modeling here's my 3D model assembly rendered 





Parts printed and test assembled with wiring for LEDs and flashlight to light up the barrel when firing.

Painting


Airbrushing acrylic silver paint



After this the wiring and lights were installed, then some minor weathering and it was done!
