The Steampunk Nerf N-Strike Nite Finder Dazzles Dangerously
Matt Ho — October 21, 2011 — Art & Design
The latest customized Nerf gun I've had the pleasure of stumbling upon is the Steampunk Nerf N-Strike Nite Finder by Montreal-based Etsy designer IsilWorkshop.
The Steampunk Nerf N-Strike Nite Finder design takes on the Victorian, sci-fi aesthetics that's a trademark of the steampunk genre. The entire gun has been revamped with a three-layer custom paint job finished with a protective varnish. The addition of brass gear, screen and other customizations adds to this badass piece that makes it truly original. Two slots are available for extra rounds on the bottom of the gun and there's a bright-red targeting light for more accurate shooting.
In addition to the Nerf N-Strike Nite Finder, IsilWorkshop has also modified other Nerf guns that I highly recommend anyone to check out.
