Imperial E-Web Heavy Blaster Cannon
Based off of the blaster cannon seen in Star Wars Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back.
Here I am creating my Blueprint to make this Replica. This took me several hours / days to figure out how I wanted to create this weapon.
In the end I decided to base my E-Web off of the toy.
After I have made my plans I started creating my replica of the Imperial E-Web Blaster Cannon. I started off with the Tri-Pod or Base.

After the base
was put together I started the next logical parts for the cannon. I
started to make the main body / barrel of the E-Web Blaster Cannon. This is what
the product will look like all laid out in order. |
|
Then I started to make the swivel mount. This is the piece that will hold the Main Body / Barrel of the E-Web Blaster Cannon on top of the Tri-Pod / Base. | ![]() ![]() |
Now that the main body or barrel of the E-Web Blaster Cannon is built I started to make the Side Guards and Controls. The
Side Guards are made small rather than large and over bearing. For my
replica I just thought it looked nicer with the smaller Side Guards.
Depending if you look at the movie, books, toys, ect they do differ
in size. |

So now that the E-Web Blaster
Cannon is well underway it is time to start priming the pieces. Before priming I wiped down all the parts with quick drying thinner to clean the pipe and all parts so that the primer would hold. |

Here are
most of the parts all primed and painted. |

Here are the control grips for the controls of the E-Web Blaster Cannon. I used Bicycle hand grips. | ![]() |
Here is the Main Body of the E-Web Blaster Cannon all primed and painted flat black. I added the Controls, Side Guards, Swivel Mount, and Scopes. |

Here is the main part of the E-Web Blaster Canon ready to be put onto the Tri-Pod. | ![]() |
I did leave the bottom of the middle mount of the Tri-Pod open so I could later
if I choose to I could add a hose that connects and an
energy box.
The box I
would use for the Energy Box is a black plastic TupperWear type box that is
sold at
most department
stores
around Halloween. The pieces of my replica will
fit inside of one of those boxes for easy transport.
Here is my Finished Replica
of the Imperial E-Web Heavy Blaster Cannon.
Here I am at 6:30am standing at
the controls of the Imperial E-Web Blaster Cannon to give you an idea how
large this replica is.
One on my neighbors called the Police and told them that I was aiming an Anti-Aircraft
Weapon around. The Police came and
laughed about what happened and told me that I did a good job on creating
the E-Web Blaster Cannon.
Die Rebel Scum! Is my face mean looking enough?
