I also have stl files of the model at 1/144 scale, which I would be happy to share with you if you want to 3D print it. The stl files could be scaled up to 1/72 scale when printing.

3rd person interested - I was in love with the Renegade as a kid and as recently as 3 months ago was doing a search on Scalemates to see if anyone ever modeled one.  And to top it off, my 14yo has started learning 3D printing, so...methinks he will have an assignment from the guy paying the electric bill....  :)

That just goes to show that you never know GM, because I actually have a response for both Maverick and Space Ranger.

As for plans... I do not know if they are still available or not; I found them on-line. I still have the JPG files though and would be happy to send them to you if you e-mail me at rdutnell@ou.edu.

If either of you are interested, let me know. If not, happy modeling!

Are the plans for the Lake Renegade still available for download?  I'd love to build this in 1/48!

I'd love to have one in 1/72! Where did you find the plans?

This is a great model ! Would you be interested in sharing your 3D model. I have dozens of accurate aircraft models, but I do not have a lake amphibian.

Thanks artworks2!  I’m glad you like it.

Like I said, it may be a while before I get any more done on it, but I’ll post it when I do.

Neat!!

UPDATE 4

Hi Guys!

I decided to put the main parts of the Renegaded together, as seen in the pictures below.

UPDATE 3

Thanks CN Spots!

I finally received my Renegade model today, and I am one happy camper!  It really came out nice!  Below are pictures of the model, as I received it from C2D (after unpacking it of course).

Here is a picture of all of the parts.

Here is a close-up picture of the parts fret,…

… a close up of the seats…

… a close-up of the stationary prop…

… and a close-up of the clear parts, including the cabin glass and spinning prop.  I am quite surprised by the clarity of the clear plastic.  In the past the “clear” plastic wasn’t very clear.  These definitely are.

Very impressive!

I haven’t received my order for the Renegade yet, but Ron has, and was kind enough to send a picture of the printed parts.

Continuing from my initial post, I next made an interior, cut out of the bottom.

Next I consolidated the pieces on the engine housing and made an attachment point for it, as I did the pontoons.

After this, I turned to the interior, first creating an IP and detailing it using pictures.

The images below show the parts of the completed kit…

…And the model “exploded” showing the parts.

I also made two different seats of decals for the model…

…And at Ron’s request, made a mold for bashing windows out of clear plastic, because the 3-D clear plastic is somewhat opaque.

The model is currently available from Click2Detail.

Stay tuned for the next phase, building the actual model.
