Vector’s Piranha Gun
Project: Private Client
Requirements: Full size replica of the Vector Piranha Gun from DreamWorks Despicable me franchise. Including functional blinking piranha eyes.
Materials: 3D printed PETG, Acrylic paint, ESP3-2 microcontroller, SG90 Micro Servo
Process: The fabrication began with the design and 3D modeling of the Vector Piranha Gun, ensuring accuracy to its appearance in the Despicable Me franchise. The components were 3D printed using durable PETG material to achieve both structural integrity and detail. An intricate internal tree structure was designed and fabricated to support the nine piranha eyes and their accompanying SG90 micro servos, allowing precise movement. Finally, the entire piece was meticulously hand-painted with acrylic paint to replicate the vibrant, polished finish of the original design. The result was a fully realized, lifelike replica
