Nerf Firefly ver 2


My second version of the Nerf Firefly dart rifle has been customized with a sci-fi / cyberpunk theme in mind. I dremeled off the Nerf logos and later added my own decals after painting. The main barrel chamber has been left transparent so that the flash effect still works great. For those who don't know, the Firefly has an option that when turned on makes the barrel flash every time you pull the trigger. This gun has not had an internals modified as it was intended more as a cosplay prop.

Paints Used:
- Krylon Fusion Flat Black
- Spaz Stix Ultimate Mirror Chrome
- Tamiya Acrylic Flat Black
- Createx Pearl Silver
- Folkart Acrylic Metallic Silver Sterling

The Firefly was first basecoated in Krylon Flat Black. The trigger, front part of the barrel, slider, and dart rack were painted with Spaz Stix's Ultimate Mirror Chrome while the top front section and rear shoulder rest were airbrushed with Pearl Silver which I love for its blue-ish aluminum look that contrasts nicely with the chrome silver. The rest of the body was drybrushed with some Metallic Silver Sterling to bring out the details. Tamiya Flat Black was used for touch-ups and for the airbrushed shading and burn mark effects.
