hey @audreybits thank you so much ! making the the guns was actually pretty quick - with such a big box of toys it was easy to find fitting pieces and glue them on. also i wasnt very complicated about it- i just happily glued everything together that pleased me.
and making the silvery metal effect using a dry brush and a bit of silver-acrylic paint - was really fast. it can be done in a few minutes. but the spray coating has to dry for a while so i usually let the black base layer dry for a night before i continue. seems to take a couple of days to finish something like this. the paint-job of gun in the first photo is not finished - i later added rust and some heat-effects at the barrel etc. :) will upload new stuff later!
