Mass Effect Carnifex turned Paladin pistol foam build

Decided to give a foam build a try, started out as the Mass Effect Carnifex pistol, ended up being a Mass Effect M-77 Predator. Not overly happy with the finished product, but for a first attempt okay.

I changed from the original Carnifex idea to the Spectre M77 Paladin, simply because I don’t think anyone has done one before, whereas the Carnifex is out there in the fan realm as a prop build. I actually like the overall look of the M77 more, with its grungy white and striking red and black decal work.

Mass Effect Paladin - Foamy goodness, light but easier than mdf

Don't mess!

The Caution decal reads this is a Spectre acquisition sidearm and if you’re not a Spectre agent and you’re caught with it you’ll be arrested and the sidearm confiscated… well we can’t have just anyone running around with top level weaponry now can we ;p

I took a photo of it with my 1:1 Avenger for size… meaty.

Oh and this build is MEANT to look dirty, it’s meant to look grungy and oily and messy, it’s a battle sidearm, not a dress weapon ;p
