For people who wanted to see what the lights looked like in action, I've got a video up on youtube right now

Enjoy!

Are you plaining on anymore weapons from half life or any other valve title?

Probably going to revisit TF2 sometime in the future. Not sure about Half Life stuff, nothing on the books for now, but we'll see...

Not sure if you are allowed to share, but did Steve from MegaCynics end up winning this one? Im curious if both Child's Play guns ended up in the same place.

I'm not (by far) the first to say this, but this gun is 100 per cent pure awesome!

To bring up an old subject: I don't really think the crystals are Xen materials. The Xen crystals were always used/referenced around teleportation type events (the resonance cascade, the failed teleport in Kleiner's lab, etc), and the Gravity Gun doesn't seem much related to that in the fiction at all. The "real" name of the weapon is the "zero-point energy field manipulator", and to me there was always a striking resemblance to the zero-point modules from Stargate in terms of shape and color.

As for the build itself - words cannot express how amazing it was! It's amazing that it took 8 years for a build of this quality for such an iconic weapon. It's really a shame you can't provide the high resolution model or any of that information for us, but your build is definitely an inspiration.

Could you elaborate on the screen meshing material that you use on the interior of the barrel? Whatever it is looks perfect in there.

I'm speechless, but the closest thing I could find to help express how I feel are two video clips.

Seriously, great job on it, Volpin.
