Smiley Lever/W1 Ejection Version MOD-Warhammer 40k Artificer Bolter
Print Profile(1)
Description
Background
Shell-ejecting blasters using Qilin casings appear unusually massive due to the shell size. This gave me inspiration, reminding me of the classic Bolter weapon from Warhammer 40,000, and thus this project was born.
I mapped out the original model's full-wrap receiver cover, referencing Winchester lever-action rifles, and incorporated what I believe to be Warhammer 40k-style designs. The result is this hollowed-out receiver cover, which is visually slimmer than the original and exposes more of the bolt, allowing for a better appreciation of the mechanical movement—Praise the Omnissiah! I also added some ornate decorations commonly used by the Warhammer 40k Imperium of Man, including the Imperial Aquila, winged skulls, and more skulls, making it look more like an Artificer Bolter, LOL.
Acknowledgments
The decorative decals were not designed by me, but were taken from parts of open-source models in the community. Thanks to Pegaxus and AdiCrafts for sharing them with the community.
Printing Instructions
1. Hollowed Receiver

I used Tianrui PETG Glitter Series for printing, and the printing parameters have been adjusted. Printing with ordinary PETG material should also likely work without issues.
