Here are the scans for the Cylon rifles as promised...

I've also did a scan for the stunt rifle.

I hope that helps. :wink:

Just to let other Cylon know what is the right rifle to grab when prepping to take down the colonialist, don't grab that stunt gun on the far right. The other 2 rifles to the left are the working hero versions.

Hi there,

I am new to this forum, I am a huge cylon fan, I own my own armour as well, I created it all myself including cylon eye electronics. I am also a great fan of papercraft and create a lot of prop items for myself and friends. below is a photo of a cylon rifle I made using papercraft. You can then fibreglass finish the prop or even use them as a templete to create a wooden prop from.... I also have a number of other cylon papercraft items that can be used as templete's including the leg armour.
I am willing to give what ever I have free to anyone interested, I am in the process of creating a coloninal blaster in papercaft at the moment.

The other image is off my cylon helmet that I chrome painted up with alclad chrome paint.

Wow, NICE stuff stranger (and WELCOME by the way :))

You could email me the paper crafts you have - I would like a copy please (little email links under signatures). I did a papercraft cylon helmet once, but it was not as advanced as yours.
Your rifle is looking awesome - seems like you have LEDs in the sides? Very creative. P.S. Your Bayonet is on upside down ;) the serrations should be on the bottom.

I was just reading about papureka (spelling?) the other day... is that what you've used? Again, NICE WORK!

Hi Cylon knight,

Haa you spotted the delibrate mistake on the rifle :wink:

Yes I do use Pepakura software, I have become quite good at using the software, you can download the free viewer from their website, as this will guide you in assembling Pepakura items.... you simply check the corresponding faces on the 2D section to the 3D model.... easy.
Here is the link to their website incase you do not know it.

Will send you a copy of the Cylon rifle.

Oops! I had my email deal set to "no." I saw it, but I tested your permissions and you couldn't... cRaZy :)

I have it fixed now - you can now see my little email Cylon button, under the sig. Thanks for sharing!!!

The barrel tip and the long clear part extending from it that you see in the vents at the top of the rifle body is all one long piece, correct? The long clear tube and the blaster tip are one?

If so, what is the diameter of the tubing needed to be found for the long clear tube?

might have messed up on some math trying to build mine.
Gold cylon, if you can help (I have searched this site for hours and could not find the answer)
can you please measure the width of the front portion of the rifle and the width of the "box" area (where the panels go) and the width of the stock and the width of the grip? I would like to make sure I make it right. Would like to finish today if you can get those measurements.

The prop is 36.75" long including the bayonet what about from the back of the stock to the end of the barrel? (without nozzle and bayonet).
