Customized Steampunk Nerf Guns - Part 7

In continuation of my developing tradition of creating retro futuristic Steampunk weaponry from toy guns, I've recently completed two new models.

Unlike the ones I've made and sold in the past, I am testing out a new direction in the sales arena. Previously, all the guns I've modified have only been for sale through auction-style listings on eBay. However, I'm currently trying out the idea of selling them for a fixed price through Etsy.com to see if it will work well as an outlet for sharing my creativity with the rest of the world.

One of the major pluses to Etsy is that each item is listed for three months at a fixed price versus only seven days on eBay. I also don't get charged as much to list and sell on Etsy, so I am able to use more of the money to create new weapon designs.

So without further ado, here are the latest creations from Professor Finneas Wiley's Curiosities & Contraptions.

The Gentleman's Revolver


and

The Duke's Snubnose 22


If you would be interested in adding either of these two prop weapons to your Steampunk, LARP or COSPLAY wardrobe, they are available on my Etsy store at the following links.

The Gentleman's Revolver - $25 - Sold
The Duke's Snubnose 22 - $20 - Sold

Using The Ideas

The ideas and images presented here are intellectual property and protected under international copyright law. If you intend to market the idea to the masses and/or make a copious amount of cash out of the deal, there are a few things you need to do first.

  1. Contact me and let me know what you intend to do with the idea.
  2. If I like your plan for implementation of the idea, I will sign over the appropriate rights or attempt to direct you to the appropriate individual or group that holds the rights (in the case of ideas that are not my own).
  3. If you are planning to mass produce the idea (i.e. an idea for a consumer product, book, or vehicle I've designed), I would like a working finished copy of the concept upon it's completion as well as a small negotiable royalty fee.

Some of the ideas I will present will be relatively open source and will be noted as such. If you would like to contribute to the idea, you are more than welcome. Should the idea progress to a marketable state, any profits gained must be donated to charity or used to further the research & development of the concept.

The Organization of The Site

As with most ideas I come up with, this site is still in an ever-changing state of flux. My organizational skills are a bit of a mess, so this site may look like a bomb exploded in the menu or be so anal retentively organized that navigation is a chore. Please bear with me. I'm still working on the best way to group ideas to make the site as user friendly as possible.


If you like the site and/or are feeling generous, I humbly accept donations.
