Hi fellow prop makers!
Here is my build log for the Hellboy Good Samaritan Gun, its something I have wanted to make for years and finally with advances in technology and of course seeing the amazing build by asavage I decided it was high time to get to it!
I'm not much of a 3D modeler myself so I recruited AndersEFP , the same Anders who made the equally amazing Blade Runner PKD 3D Model.
Here are some of Anders early models of the Samaritan.
As you can see in this image getting the HUGE scale of the gun was somewhat of a challenge
But eventually we got to a point where we were both happy with the way it looked, so on to printing!
I am fortunate enough to have access to a rather large resin 3D printer, so I managed to get the whole thing done in just two prints!
Next up was to sand all the parts, But I couldn't resist to try a dry fit
After this I primed the parts.
This thing is HUGE!
Here they are all ready to be moulded, as I waited for my rather large silicone order to arrive I decided that I wanted to make the BPRD logos and grip plate out of Pewter as I feel the model deserves some real metal at the very least. So I moulded them and made some casts.
A little rough for the first cast but as its Pewter I can try as many times as I like to get them right.
This is as far as I have got for now, My Silicone has arrived and in my excitement I have already started the moulds and forgot to get some pictures, when I open them up tomorrow to cast the 2nd half I will take some!
For now enjoy this exploded view that Anders knocked up for the model.
