Hi Rhaven Blaack,

beautiful work with the drone thumbsup. I love the raised components. It makes the model look more realistic.
I'll try to do the same when I'm finally get to build mine. I'm still cutting out the parts and there are still other unfinished projects.

Great that you provided very detailed pics about the arm assembly. They can be used as reference when building these guys
I think the arms are the most complicated parts on this model.

Well good luck with the other two drones.
I'll be watching closely.

Nice! Although I would have made a Triad deck.

Thank you very much. was a fun model to make. I am quite certain that the other two builds will go easier (now that I have the model mapped out in my brain).
You are right. The arm assembly is the must challenging part of the whole model.

I look forward to seeing how yours turns out! I wish you the very best of luck with it and I hope that you enjoy the build as much as I did.

Extraordinary work. This, like several constructions that little by little I go snooping are invaluable to be learning to detail a model, which although in itself is already magnificent, can always be improved with something extra.

Thank you. Do you mean a Pyramid deck? In the original BSG the poker game was called Pyramid. Triad was the funny "basketball" like game.
With that being said, I have plans for something along that line.
KEEP WATCHING!

Thank you very much!
Taking printed texture and layering it (either by raising, recessing, or a combination of both) is the most simple (and quite effective) way of adding detail to any model. I learned this technique with building the BRTC25 Thunder Fighters and adding detail. Please check out the "Detailed Thunder Fighter Project". There, you will find ideas on how to easily add detail.

The reboot switched them.

The reboot switched them.

I know. I was not too happy with that. Then again there were quite a few changes that I was not too happy with.

RB, I am speechless. This is magnificent!

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

RB, I am speechless. This is magnificent!

Thank you sir! I enjoyed building it.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Absolutely fantastic! Very precise and clean work. I can't wait for the other ones!

SO, my fiance has been asking me (for awhile) to finish this collection of droid for her! Since @Revell-Fan and I have finished the Viper and the launch rail, I have decided to make the next droid in the series Droid Two (Dewy).

Here are the parts sheets.


Starting with the main body.






Here are the parts for the base structure of the front face.


The individual parts are asembled.


The base is assembled.


Here are the rest of the parts for the face.




The base is attached to the main body.




The texture is attached.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Fantastic!

 

[Toutenkarton]

Impressive, very good start. I was lucky, I was able to get the models of the 3 robots by email when it was posted. Unfortunately, no more possibility to write on its site and no response by email. No matter his current choice of model does not suit me.

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

Thank you all for the kind words and encouragement! I greatly appreciate it!!

So, here is the the next installment of photos.

Here are the parts for the top facade of the droid.


The main part of the top facade is assembled.

Here are the parts for the inside of the center of the facade.


The center piece of the facade is assembled.

You should upload those models. It would make a great statement.
