Description I made a chance mid-stream on where this project was going. It originally was intended to be a Gears of War "Longshot", but that project fell through so I moved forward with a Halo sniper rifle theme instead Here's a link to the finished product: johnsonarms.deviantart.com/art…

how do you get the "NERF" off the gun?

I've always wondered why sci-fi movies don't just use modded nerf guns they can look really realistic with some effort (case in point).

I think they're becoming more aware of the potential and I like that, hehe

Looks more like a Hyperion sniper rifle from Borderlands 2 than anything from Halo.

We all see something different, but I think that's great.  Thanks for your comment, bud!

I like this much more than a simple black paint job; the shell really doesn't have a lot of "junk" features to going two-tone helps it pop.  It still busts my chops that Nerf bothered coming up with a decent sniper rifle and released it without any type of scope at all!

Thank you very much!  I agree that there should be a scope.  For the price you don't get anywhere near as much value as say the Longshot.  I do like the bipod, but I'd give that up real quick for some kind of updated sniper scope.  Maybe they'll add it as a combo around christmas (I can dream, dangit!  hehe)

Nice work! I recently got the Centurion, and want to model it into an M-98 Widow from Mass Effect

JohnsonArmsProps In reply to Wesker86 [2013-10-08 14:56:16 +0000 UTC]

That could work nicely!  Maybe leave the front barrel off and just add a long extension of PVC or conduit for the widow barrel?   Let me know how that goes!

Yeah I was thinking that. It'll be my first major modification on a NERF gun, so I hope I can do it lol

Just take your time and do the best you can.    I wish you well with it - there's no fun in screwing up a $50 toy!  lol

Wesker86 In reply to JohnsonArmsProps [2013-10-09 09:44:35 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, i plan to. And thanks. If I screw it up or can't do it myself, I'll probly see if you could do it for me

Thank you very much.  I've shifted away from Nerf a bit due to commission requests, but I still try to make sure I do them whenever the opportunity arises

I love this design. What parts from what NERF products did you use to create this, dare I ask?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JohnsonArmsProps In reply to ruzkin [2013-10-08 03:12:21 +0000 UTC]

This actually the Centurion with a customized front barrel.  I've seen quite a few with the shield completely removed, but it looked more appropriate with part of it still attached.  The scope is from a lasertag gun as I recall, but I can't dredge up which model unfortunately.


Glad you like it and I hope the finished piece will be even better

Thanks for the reply! The Centurion is still unfamiliar to me - it hasn't arrived in Australia yet. Looks like it has great repaint potential, though.
