I wanted a really heavy infantry support weapon, so I designed an Artillery Drone. The concept is to mount a full sized rail gun onto the smallest carriage that could carry it. Basically it's an anti-tank gun that can move under its own power and can provide serious close support for the infantry.
The entire model was made from scratch, starting with a design I made and then printed on a 3-D printer. The printed model was used to make a mold and was then cast in resin. If you are interested, I have a few of them for sale at 18charlie.com

Thanks for the comments everybody!
I actually printed master molds on my 3-D printer (to make the molds with), and not the model itself. It makes the printing process a lot more complicated, but makes producing the mold itself a lot easier!
