I would like to commission someone to model gun furniture so I can make my Unica 6 look like the above image. I would either be 3D printing the parts, or sending it to a company to make a resin cast of the model
Would anyone be interested, or can you point me somewhere I could find people to commission?

first off fuck you I want your guns
second, that furniture looks like you could just crank it out on a cnc router from a few sheets of plywood, bolt them together, and then stain them
if you really want to commission someone they're going to need the measurements for the attachment points and probably the areas around those points to make sure everything lines up. you'll most likely have to do that yourself as I wouldn't want to send a Unica 6 to someone and I'm sure you feel the same way.
You might be able to find some small local 3D printing/cad studio in your area who would be willing to work on it. I don't live in a very big city and even I have one within walking distance of me. Paid him $500 to 3d scan every part of my gyrojet pistol

I could make it out of wood and it would possibly look really nice, however I’d like to make the furniture out of translucent amber colored resin, like the grips from the bladerunner gun. I might also check out some local CAD studio to see if they can scan it for exact dimensions

Also a gyrojet pistol is nothing to sneeze at god damn

that would be rad. I'm sure you could probably cast your own and sell them as well.

It is if you see how gross mine is. I bought it for $375 at a gun show and I swear someone buried it in their backyard or something, there was actual dirt in the gun. I've been putting off doing restoration on it since the entire gun is cast aluminum, and I'm not even sure if it's anything other than just pure aluminum. This means that it is incredibly fragile, and a lot of techniques that I would use to clean a steel gun would destroy the gyrojet.

Would a solvent bath work?

I'm probably going to buy an ultrasonic cleaner, just it's so fragile it scares me. This part broke even after letting it soak in some penetrating oil, smallest twist of a screwdriver and it snapped, that screw is probably never coming out of there

Damn that’s a shame. At least it was only $375.
Imagine how much you can sell it for once/if it’s refurbished

I want to try doing something really stupid like making my own ammo. I don't car if it's accurate or functional I just want something to shoot out of the gun when I pull the trigger

Bro, you're thinking way too high tech for what you're asking for.
You need a carpenter with a pencil, a router, a rasp, sandpaper and varnish.

I want the final product to be be cast resin. I’ll be sending the model somewhere to have it made

Look what he posted earlier, he did a resin style grip for his Ruger
