thats what being not a dev, but a fan of this game is about, taking your love for PlanetSide to the next level. this guy should do his own line of replica PS 2 guns and auction them

California being California it's probably a 100 year prison sentence for making a toy gun look realistic.

Now in the other 49 states....that repaint is awesome!

outside the usa it´s also a problem.
in germany you may do this but as soon as you show it off in the public you are screwed (if it´s not a convention or other event where fake guns are common)
even better in the netherlands. you may not even possess any kind of toy gun that is not painted in neon bright pink, orange or yellow. they find it in your trunk, you are screwed ;-) even on conventions. i witnessed how the police raided a starwars convention to collect all trooper blasters!

hard times for any reenactment fans of any kind. a friend of mine was almost arrested because he left his house in a stormtrooper armor, carrying his resin mg-34 replica. stupid police didn´t even know what starwars is.

i´ve got some old scifi toyguns, too. if one of them resembles a ps2 gun, i will likely do a nc paintjob. right now they are all in starwars mode.

Imagine if SOE sold those, instead of a water pistol, as a prop for fans' collections.

That's one thing I always felt was missing from PS1, fan art.

I hope we get all types of insane fanart, I hope I get a massive fanbase that immortalizes me and makes statues of me in my Terran Wolf armor.

OMG, if SOE started up a franchise of PS Nerf or airsoft guns in their merchandise stores, i'd kill over and die. just sayin,

That gun rocks. I'd love to show up to ComicCon dressed up as a TR soldier rocking a pair of Repeaters looking like that Longbow.

Don't think I would buy a normal nerf gun but if they made them to look like that then I would be broke all the time.

that's certainly one way of getting shot by police...

that´s the reason why they are forbidden in germany now. i think a policeman shot a kid that was stupid enough to aim at the cop with a softair gun that looked like a real machinegun at a not so bright evening.

shortly after that real looking toyguns were banned in public if they didn´t sport a bright neon red barreltip.

This guy could make a lil extra $ selling some of these. I want a BB or water gun version though :)

Shogun

i think you underestimate the amount of work that goes into things like that.
if he wanted to make money with this, those guns would be a little expensive i suppose.

but soe could really sell some watergun or bb ps2 weapons. serial models would still need a custom paintjob because toys always look like toys and only custom painting can pimp them to look that good. but having the body of the guns available from store would really make it possible for everyone to make some badass props

Wow! Nice work!

Planetside needs more props!

I did some checking through the media and found the pick of the cloaker holding a sniper rifle. That rifle looks pretty much the same aside from the hole see through-ness of the object.
