Dummy 13 - Blaster Arms Overhaul

God, I just need to release these. I'll keep iterating on them forever and never get them out there otherwise.

THE NEW AND IMPROVED BLASTER ARMS ARE HERE!

READ THIS:
ALL of these guns are designed to be printed vertically; I personally have not had a single one fail or fall over, but you may need to add a brim. I printed in PETG on a textured plate, but the few I tried on a smooth plate were also fine.

To put the blasters on, fit the right fist onto the handle, then slide the arm through the strap and into the hand. With this, you can now print out the blaster once, and replace the elbows/forearm/bicep as need be. No need to reprint the entire gun once it wears out!

The guns being so much longer does lead to some wear on the arms, so I wanted it to be easier to replace the parts. A flamethrower takes an hour and a half to print; a new shoulder only takes 15 minutes.

This entire thing started because I've always hated the original “shotgun” blaster arm; I never knew how to make it really work and it just stuck out from the other three. It always irked me. This time, the shotgun lance is one of my favorites, so I think I succeeded in my goal. I also made the flamethrower actually look like a flamethrower this time, which I like.

I was working on these alongside the Vanguard 13; I actually started working on the Vanguard because the original Dummy was just so small compared to these guns. I've gotten ready to publish these things five times already, and every time I have another idea and make some change and push it back a week. I just need to release them.

Guns included in this pack:

Each “Lance” has a shorter, stubbier version, except the revolver. That one just looks whack with a shorter barrel.

BE AWARE: Each gun is designed for left or right, depending on orientation. You can download the one you want, or you can just mirror it on the x-axis in whatever slicer you have. I included two of each version for ease of access.

I might throw out an overhaul v1.1 or something in the coming weeks, because I just keep having more ideas. I keep making new ones and deleting old ones, I feel like I'm going crazy over here.
