Burna makin' 101 !

Over on the WAAAGH, Biv put together a great article on how to make a burna from other parts.

Biv did such a nice job on this that I wanted to post up some "real" wip shots of my take on his fantastic design.

These are actually very easy to make.

Start by cutting off the barrel of a shoota.

Than cut off the magazine

than cut the choppa off of a boy arm, and remove the majority of the blade. I like this spikey one, and I found a little of the blade helps later on.

Next, a small piece of plasticard goes on the shoota. I used both round and square stock.

for model strenght, I pinned the barrel to the shoota, starting off with drilling a small hole in the center of the plasticard, and inserting a length of paperclip.

drilling a hole in the choppa handle is a bit more work, but if you start the hole with the blade of a sharpe knife, and work carefully, it's not too bad.

finally, I trim down the paper clip, align the barrel, and glue it up.

next up is the lower feed tube. Simply bend more paperclip to a pleasing shpe. What you don't see here is the hole drilled into the shoota, just below the white block, that one end of the paperclip slides into.

The paperclip gets glued in, and than another small piece of plasticard attaches to the end of the choppa/barrel, and the other side of the paperclip goes in that.

Finally, the handle of the shoota is cut off, and moved to the front at an angle. I do this last so I won't loose that small part. Don't forget to drill a hole in both the handle and the barrell as well!

by varying the shape of the plasticard, the choppa, and other fun parts, you can easily make a variety of unique burnaz for your boyz. Here are three that I made for my scarboyz, all WIP.

I hope you find this usefull. - Scarpia
