How to Make Din Djarin's Blaster from Star Wars The Mandalorian out of Foam - Free Blueprint
Hey everyone! I'm showing How to Make Din Djarin's Blaster from Star Wars The Mandalorian out of Foam with a Free PDF Pattern! And yes I am really excited for The Mandalorian Season 3 ! This was a really fun build and I'm incredibly happy with how the tutorial and prop came out. To go along with the foam tutorial I also go over all of the painting techniques including wood grain and graphite powder applications. This EVA Foam fabrication blaster looks amazing and weighs next to nothing so it's great as a display piece or perfect for your Mandalorian Cosplay. To help you out this Mandalorian blaster build also comes with Free blueprints that I created that can be found on my website. So if you want to protect the Child ( Baby Yoda / Grogu ) or possibly fight off some bounty hunters with Ahsoka Tano this is the blaster for you.

You’ll ever do a demo for a cosplay armor design for a work war boss
@@davidwoomer8490 I’m guessing you meant ork but that is a costume on my list just gotta find the time and I’d like for cons to be back up and running for that one 👍
This man deserves a medal and a commission for clarifying the exact material and measurements used at every single step of the process.
Thank you very much! It’s a ton of work but comments like this make it worth it 👍
100000% agreed!!!!
The last 3 builds have blown me away, if anyone ever wanted to build one of these.... This is the way
Thank you very much!
3D Printing seems easier. But I could be wrong. I’d have to compare the cost and everything to see what’s cheaper.
Great build.
Thanks Ted!
You have earned a subscriber, this day, my fellow Mandalorian 😏❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
Awesome. This just made the short list! Thanks for inspiring us all!
You’re welcome 👍
By far best building this next to a full wood versions I've seen
Thank you very much!
Simply no words . . . Just a fantastic build!
Thank you sir! Means a lot coming from a huge Star Wars fan like you!
I love the Bergmann No1/1894! It's such a cool looking gun. I thought the round trigger was weird until I held my print of it, not I love it.
I think my favorite technique of the build is definitely the wood grip, very convincing effect!
Thanks!
Super nice result! Details and finishing are really inspiring. Thank you for the plans!
You’re welcome have fun with the build!
This looks great. Truly a great example of additive building from the base out.
Thanks Wayne!
This is SO COOL STEVE!
Thank You!
Beautiful prop. Really love the techniques you've used here. Subscribed!
Thank you very much!

You’re welcome have fun!
Just wanted to say happy thanksgiving Steve. Thanks for all the great tutorials.
Thanks man and the same to you!
I always learn so much from you. Especially your painting techniques. You are indeed a master, sir. Thank you for sharing with us!
You're welcome and I'm glad the tutorials come in handy!
I'd love to see a video about how you created your HD Foam line, from sourcing and developing to packaging and marketing. Without giving up the "secret sauce" I think a lot of people, myself included, would love to learn about that process!
Outstanding work!!!
Thank you very much!
Aw some build, will definitely be using those painting techniques in an upcoming prop. Thanks man!
You're very welcome!
Really enjoy that wood effect painting method. So effective.
Thank you! And yes so much of painting effectively is just a process!
I love the graphite and wood finishes.
Thank you very much!!
YES YES YES I’ve wanted to make one of these for FOREVER!!!!!
Well here’s your chance have fun!

Looking great. Wood looks real
Thank you very much!
I needed this so much man! Thanks!
You're Welcome!
Wow impresive!!!
Thanks!
Super clean and great detail. I'm definitely fascinated by your wood technique as I'm trying to paint some wood texture on a mace I'm working on. Really high quality video sir!
Thank you and hope the technique helps with your build!
your painting process is so relaxing to watch :D
Glad you like the process 🙌
This is wonderful
Thank you!
Your the man. Yes I’m writing comments as I watch this amazing work come to life right in-front of me. I love watching you videos And props you build. I know I say this every video. Great instructions on how to build right along with you, your painting and skills are out of this world. You have made my confidence in building things from foam sky rocket as well. I’m not at your level. But one day I might be. Thanks for all your blueprints.
Thank you so much and believe me when I say I appreciate these types of comments, it really makes all of the hard work it takes to produce these instructional videos worth it!
Bloody brilliant ATB
Thanks!
That was awesome!!
Thank You!
Very nice rendition of Mando's sidearm, thorough explanation of your build and a great paint job. "Pew-pew" 👍

You are a beast my man! This looks incredible. I'll be making this project very soon! You're a great guy and I wish for your continued success my friend. Matt - Nerd Barrage
Thank you! I’m glad so many people are enjoying the build and be sure to tag me when you’ve made yours 👍
I'm printing this blaster on my elegoo neptune 4 right now.
Subbed. Awesome!
Thanks!
In this gun's design, I can see elements of a few world war one guns. The German C-96, German P-08, and the American Lewis gun.
AMAZING
Thanks!
I'd love you to tackle the new 40k game dark tide weapon the ogryn uses. It looks ace.
This is the way!
This is the Way 👍
I love your work, I really want to try an SKS props drinking game where every time you says HD foam we drink
HA HA!!!!! I don't know if I'd recommend that 😂😂 But Thank you for the Support!!
@@SKSProps also I recently switched to Bob Smith's glue after you use it so much and it's soooo good!
it's 29 times if people are curious. that's alcohol poisoning for sure
@@SAOS451316 🤣🤣 you actually counted!
I just finished (apart from painting) this! My rotary carver is apparently is not great because it was SO hard not to mess stuff up, and my gun definitely isn't smooth. BUT it looks like yours and I am so pleased!!! Thanks again for doing this :D
That’s fantastic! Congrats 🙌 if you haven’t yet be sure to watch my video on how I make my own custom sanding drums for foam. It will change your life as a foamsmith
@@SKSProps OKAY!!! Thanks :)
Well done! did you know this weapon is a modified version of the actual 1894 Bergmann No. 1 Pistol? It was an automatic German pistol designed by Louis Schmeisser and sold by Theodor Bergmann's company. Super cool!!!
It blows my mind what people do with foam
Practice makes perfect hopefully videos like this will help you on your foam journey 👍
@@SKSProps oh no I don't do foam. I 3d print but you had some great tips on painting A+
@@gabrielh7517 ahhh sweet I’m actually learning zbrush so I can add 3D to my bag of tricks 😉
@@SKSProps awesome!
Holy crap, this is great work as always! You should try to make a Boba Fett helmet next, I think that would be really cool!
Thank you very much!
I'd love to see the guns from Firefly, should you ever need build ideas!
Could you go some shore trooper armor and blaster E22 please Love your videos and work
Hi, love the built, looking forward to trying it myself. Question: is there another way to make the small punch out foam that you use the leather tool for @11:32?
You could use really small google eyes or make your own punch out of small brass tubes. Sharpen the end and press into the foam
cool! Could you also do a mandalorian rifle?
I’m making this
Have fun with the build!
@@SKSProps finished this today after getting the right paint looks awesome also made some beskar ingots
Great work as always! Really showing the versatility of the product that you've created and a really great demonstration of some awesome techniques.Your paint work has always blown me away and I wish I was anywhere near as good as you are with hand painting.
Thank you so much! These videos take a ridiculous amount of work and I'm really glad they can help people out in the community. Painting is all about techniques with enough practice and learning you can do it too👍
Incredible build. Always wondered why there would need to be a "hammer" on an energy weapon, it's not as if there is a firing pin striking a projectile.
That is becouse it is based on an actual wepon. A Bergman 1894 No. 1.
Because in the original trilogy the guns they rented could only be modified to a certain extent before they were returned and they are keeping with that tradition
My mind is blown .
Thank man the power of HD-Foam! and a paint brush 😉
Great video. Please make a video for a RotJ Luke lightsaber. Nobody does a good budget version tutorial of that hilt.
Thanks!
My first time here, and I love it! I would love to do this, but I don’t have every tool...but I do have sanding paper in my garage would that work to make sure the pieces are smooth together?
Well I guess you can but go through my channel and check out my $20 rotary tool review video. $20 will save you a lot of time and headache and you’ll use it quite a bit
Where did you source the metal rod you used? Ive got the template laid out! This will be my first ever build. I'm really impressed with your work and talent thank you for your amazing content.
The metal rod is a yard maker from lowes cut down to fit
more parts then a lego deathstar🤯
Takes a lot to make it look just right! 👍
Hey Steve could you possibly make Han’s DL 44 Blaster? Ps really wicked cool that blaster is.
Great template! I'm going to have fun making it! I did print it too big though so I have to scale it down. Do you think you could add like a mini ruler scale so its easier to match the size?
Thanks! If you open the pdf in adobe acrobat or adobe reader and click poster in the printing setting there should be no reason you are scaling it up or down it scales automatically to the correct size
@@SKSProps i have, mine always acts a bit funky. Its printing on 3 sheets is and a roughly 13.5 inches. What is the length of your blaster? Does that seem right?
@@hitmantutor yes from the widest points. Back of grip near the bottom to front of the barrel is approx 13.5”
@@SKSProps Thanks so much!! I didn't realize how large itd be!
Really awesome, how messy does working with the graphite get?
Thanks! It can get messy just make sure you put down some paper that you can toss out afterwards
I wish you would do a Jawa Blaster
THAT WAS OUTSTANDING!! Howz Bout making a Warhammer 40k Plasma Gun, Melta Gun or Plasma Pistol???
I'm a huge Warhammer fan and you can see 2 different chainswords on my channel but yes a bolter is definitely on my list
Amazing craftmanship! How did you use Photoshop to make the pattern? Did you freeze frame the show and capture a close up and go from there or something?
Thanks! Yes, I get as many reference images I can off of google then import them all into Photoshop so I can see as many angles as possible. Then I create the line work using the pen tool
Nice job! How about the colonial sidearm from Battlestar Galactica (2005 version)!
Thanks that would be a cool build too 👍
STEVE: just finished my Mando blaster - great template BTW! And an ready to paint. Ive found rustolem hammered dark bronze metallic paint and rust rusteloeum oil rubbed bronze but no hammered oil rubbed bronze so which one did you use? Thx & keep up the great channel!
Just the regular oil rubbed bronze
@@SKSProps perfect, thx!
I’ve started to paint my blaster following along your methodology. One question: after applying the graphite if you wanted to seal it using testor’s metallic sealer do you do it immediately or after you complete the silver & gold accents & weathering of the front of the barrel ?
Personally I would apply the sealer just after the graphite them go with your acrylic iridescents on top
@@SKSProps great, thx!
I think he needs to find a couple DE-10s. I believe those would be very iconic and add to the western vibe of the character.
Hello when printing out the templates what size should they be printed out
As stated on the website open the pdf in adobe acrobat or adobe reader and click poster in the printer settings that will scale it properly over 2 sheets
@@SKSProps Thanks ...
If I wanted to buy the foam sizes necessary for this, Is there a package deal of sorts I was thinking of buying a bit of foam
Yes Blick has my foam in a Cosplay bundle on their site which save you some money 👍
were the grips painted with the hammered oiled bronze too before you painted the wood grain? Or, did you try to avoid painting that area? I didn't see any taping of the grips.
It was loosely sprayed on top but it didn’t really matter since I painted the unbleached titanium as the base color
Any chance you would ever build the Star Wars Shoretrooper E-22 rifle?
I've got lots of things to make on my lists just depends on what i get inspired by video to video 👍
can a hair dryer be used in place of a heat gun? thanks!
No it won’t get hot enough. You can get heat guns cheap at harbor freight or amazon
As always enjoyed the video. I'm glad that you don't waste time trying to introduce yourself, the object that you are making and just small talk. I do have a question, please consider answering, thanks. Would you make a video that gives you a sort of beginner guide to what you need to begin making diy projects. Do you sell kit's already made up with everything you need to do "Whatever " projects ? If no maybe you can make one for the beginner and advertise that as a promotional product. I believe that would make you a million in a year easy and being a marketer I would give the chance of 30-70 on the inside of making your investment tripled on the market.
I already did a beginners guide video you can check it out here kzhead.info/sun/nbyqm5mchZ2GnHk/bejne.html
