It has been printed with a retro Sci-Fi pattern, and then given a shining surfacer over it to imitate the look of tin toy gun from the Atomic Era.


The faux-high-techy machine patterns were heavily inspired by Japanese tin laser gun toys from the '60s, and printed bricks from classic Lego Space series, which are both my favourites.


Field-Tested~Battle-Scarred (.25~.75). The wear makes it better. Probably Blue, maybe Purple?

Oh, that tin toy pistol at the display outside? Tough luck, son; That lady over there- Yup, the one in red trenchcoat- she just bought that minutes ago. If you really need that thing, you gotta negotiate with her, not me.
