Look for this to go up for sale this weekend. I've just got 1 commission job that is 90% done and then we'll start.

I've had my prototype on my desk for a week and I have to say I really love the look of this gun. Because it doesn't really exist anywhere (except in small drawing in the comics) it's really need to see this come to life.

I feel this is one of the most accurate re-creations of this gun ever done. Because it wasn't based on an airsoft or existing gun, we were able to (after 3 attempts) make this really big or "Hellboy sized" as we call it here.

Thanks for all the great comments, those that want one will be able to get it soooooooon!

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

Ok all, I'm ready to start this run. The kits are printing and I'm really happy with how they turned out. The kits will be $150.00usd plus $15.00 shipping to Canada and the US and $20.00 pretty much anywhere else. Forgot to add, if you've bought a kit form me in the past, you save $10.00.

So, if you'd like one please:

1) post below stating that you're committing to buying a kit.
2) please PM me with your name and address and my paypal is rgriesbeck@sd35.bc.ca
3) tell me if you're a returning customer (and save $10.00)

The kits will printing all week and if everything goes well, I think I could ship the first 5 kits probably by this weekend.

Thanks again for your support, and remember if you're happy, send good feedback and upload pics of your build!

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

Just wanted to add, the kit comes with 18 pieces including: 16 pieces of ABS plastic, 1 pieces of leather and a small piece of aluminum (as a pivot piece). Each kit will get 1 bullet that is composed of 2 pieces.

You'll need some sandpaper, "crazy" glue, and some filler (I like apoxie sculpt). This is probably my easiest to assemble kit, but I will post a how to soon.

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

Received my kit in the mail today. I am impressed by the quality of the kit and will start working on it today.

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

Got my kit the other day. Looks great. Not a lot of pieces. Kind of surprised that it's not hollow, yet still very light (honeycombed?). A lot of work put into this. I have dreams of making it disassemblable and adding springs and mechanisms for the trigger and hammer to actuate.

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

Does anyone need an assembly guide? Haven't had much free time, but I'll do 1 if anyone isn't sure how it goes together

Re: 3d Printed Hellboy Sidearm (Comic Version)

I think it was pretty straight forward how it all went together. I'm still assembling mine; currently epoxying nuts and aligning screws so I can disassemble the handle and split the housing for the trigger and hammer.
I assumed that the flat for the combustion chamber goes downward and it seems to nest optimally in that fashion. Some alignment tabs or buttons would have been nice, as super-glue doesn't give you but a few seconds to align everything properly. I think I was a bit lucky getting everything to line-up on the first attempt.

I added a #10 nut + screw to the pivot and plan on making a Webley type of release for the top. I'll post photos once I get the spring assemblies complete and then again after sanding & painting.

A little more planning and I think you could prep these so that the trigger and hammer actuate with the addition of some light springs.
