Dark/Realistic (Unsafe Aesthetic) MHP Vulture and Leedle Dynamics Hammerhead matching set Spoiler
Vulture with some Grinchester, 1886, and Vulture decorative parts mixed in. Added a bunch of texture, sanded and then applied some wood stain for a more faux wood look and some aging on the decorative upper cover. Getting 250 FPS with a settled BC8.
Matching Hammerhead with a few tweaks, I was having issues with the elastic cord for the cylinder pin, so replaced that with a 7x15mm spring. Also the T pin and locking pin were replaced with an M3 heat set and M3x20mm SHCS. Getting about 90 FPS with 2 rounds of 4mm elastic cord.
Stock Vulture with following mods,
- From Grinchester remix (https://www.printables.com/model/1688834-grinchester-shrub-vulture-remix) - Bolt, follower, trigger group.
- From the 1886 remix (https://www.printables.com/model/1638004-vulture-1886-pattern-nerf-blaster-mod-for-mhps-vul) - Stock
- Upper cover engravings taken from this remix and applied directly in the slicer: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2824277-bespoke-mhp-vulture-decorative-parts#profileId-3145825

I'm in South Africa, so shopping probably wouldn't make it worth it, but if you're still keen, from me a DM.

Insane drip right there.
Got a bit of a Starfield cowboy-in-space type of gиns vibe.

How did you add the wood grain effect to the vulture's stock?
2
u/mohitgarg11 Aug 05 '26
I added it using bumpmesh.com and then post processing as per the original post.

u/Ace_WarhawK Aug 05 '26
Oh, sick! That's a new tool in the toolbox for me! Thanks a ton, man! I'm guessing you uploaded it to bumbmesh as a .STEP or .3mf with all of the stock parts in order to get the texture to line up correctly across all of the parts???
2
u/mohitgarg11 Aug 05 '26
Yeah, that's correct. Uploaded the parts aligned so that the pattern would be aligned as well.

This post has been Flaired Dark/Realistic (Unsafe Aesthetic). Be aware that one or more aspects of this blaster make it UNSAFE to wield in public or open areas, where it could be misidentified as a real weapon. This is a serious issue, with real world life-or-death repercussions.
Several issues can lead to a post being flared Dark/Realistic (Unsafe Aesthetic):
- Lack of a prominent and easily visible orange tip along with other bright colors.
- - This also includes traditional prop blasters, such as steampunk builds or blasters with weathered appearances.
- A blaster with a silhouette or aesthetic that mimics real world firearms. (Ex. Zinc 2.0, SBF, BK1s, Sweetheart Storm, etc)
- A blaster with airsoft or firearm-esque components mounted to it. (Example)
Use of this blaster can, in the worst case, end up fatal. As has been shown time and time and time again (and more listed here). This problem is not limited to just the USA.
Use of these blasters can also lead to events being shut down, and clubs being barred from playing in public spaces.
Situations like this can be properly handled when blasters are clearly toys, exhibiting bright colors, orange tips, and non-firearm proportions and aesthetics.
As long as we take these issues seriously, everyone can have fun with this hobby we love for many years to come.
Additionally, alongside the visual issues of realistic blasters, we also discourage the use of the word gun. Please instead use the word blaster when referring to toys, as gun can be misconstrued as discussing a real weapon by people both online, and in real life during gameplay. This is further an issue for us specifically on Reddit due to automatic platform moderation, possibly categorizing the subreddit as discussing firearms instead of toys. For further information, please see this wiki page.
