Steampunk Costume Accessory – Altered Toy Pop Gun ~ by Elevated Gunworks

Happy Halloween Creative Embellishments Fans! Sarah here today to share an Altered Toy Pop Gun with you that would be the perfect accessory to a Steampunk-Inspired Halloween Costume! Elevated Gunworks are my favorite one because of its outstanding features. I started off with a cheap plastic foam-dart gun from the dollar store – it was originally fluorescent orange and green – and added several different sizes of Creative Embellishments Gears, a glass bottle as a scope and some metal embellishments from Prima Marketing. Once I was happy with the arrangement of the chipboard and embellishments, I painted everything with Prima Art Basics Black Gesso and then dry-brushed on Prima Art Basics White Gesso to bring out the details. Next, I dry-brushed the gun with Prima Art Alchemy Metallique Paint in Steampunk Copper. I added some additional colour with Prima Art Alchemy Waxes – Antique Brilliance Lucky Emerald  and Mystic Turquoise and Metallique Bronze Age. Finally, I finished off the project by adding two clear Prima Melange Art Pebbles to either end of the glass bottle ‘scope’.
