Here we go!
After much research, delay and procrastination I have begun building my FX-7 Medical Droid replica. I used a simple illustration blueprint that I found online as a starting point, along with several reference photos of the droid from museum exhibits. I used those to build a base 3D model to get the beginning shapes and dimensions.

Excellent! I think I still have that action figure if you need further reference material!
ReplyDeleteI am tempted to have you send it but I fear it may muddy the waters as to how it really looks!
ReplyDeleteAre you using mm or inches to measure? I am assuming that this will be full size?
ReplyDeleteI am using inches. Yes, it is going to be full size. It will be about 5'10" tall when done and 27.5" at the widest point on the base.
