The progress is coming along great! I'm really curious how you would go about doing something like this, how would you go about starting creating prop replicas and such?
It's a bit of an involved process. Originally I found an HD model of the gravity gun (though I later found out that it was a fan rebuild of the existing first person view weapon for a world model, where they copied and/or rebuilt the deleted faces). Because I was going to 3D print most of it, I had to re-make the entire model, using the game model as reference. I also was going to laser cut the front parts, so after I built the model and determined what size it would be in real life, I started working on 2D vector images for the laser cut parts.

Are you going to use those flowers on the gravity gun?
I highly recommend it.
Nice! Much better off building one from scratch then ordering a NECA one. Knowing Neca, it's 140 dollars for something that will be released only in limited quantities, and be released three more times in slightly different varieties.. Plus shipping. Completing things like these make you feel accomplished as well. I've got access to a 3D printer, I might try making a Portal gun sometime.
Starting to look like a Gravity Gun finally!

WOAH... looking awesome msleeper! 
Can't comment right now, I gotta clean up pieces of my blown mind. Really though, that is amazing!
Aperture Science: We do our science asbestos we can!
Very nice! Can't wait to see the final product 
I'm still trying to find any decent shots, I pulled the typical "too busy to take any pictures of myself" so I'll have to borrow a friend's DSLR to get some good ones of my own. In the meantime I stopped in the Hyatt ladies room and took what I am titling, "the Gravity Gun in unifitting locations".
