Hey there. It’s been months since I finished Dewey but I never got around to taking any RFI pics. It was a lovely day in the sun so I figured why not.
This was a labour of love for me as Silent running has been one of my favourite films since I was a kid. Sadly Doug Trumbull died around the time this thread was started so in his honour I dedicated the WIP this RFI and Dewey to him.
There are some great Dewey kits out there but as I’d recently bought a Mars 2 Printer I wanted to make my own.
The drone was made in 3D studio max using movie shots as reference.
some old school modelling techniques were also employed during the build. Which can be found here.
He was painted using Tamiya acrylics and ammo filters.
Sorry it’s taken so long to get the RFI done, I struggle with taking pics thinking they never do the model justice so what with life being too short I figured what the hell and just took some snaps in the midday sun. ☀️ excuse the table cloth. 😂
If you followed the build I hope you liked it and if you didn’t consider giving it a little peruse to see what went into the seeet little dedication.
without further ado I give you
Dewey# Drone 1
And there you have it. I hope you like him. I enjoyed it so much I’ll have to go do the others.
Take care and as always dear chums, happy modelling.
Any comments please feel free to post.
Johnny.
