All great to hear Flyscriber. Especially cool about doing decals. Maybe have the 04, 05, and then some other numbers where the builder could make their own for the gun AND mag? I don't know how tough they are to do. Or if there's any reference for what the other numbers look like (I think we've only seen 0, 1, 4, 5). If they cost a lot to do, maybe do a basic decal set and then a custom one with more numbers for a little extra?
Andrew Bradbury has even more photos on his site ( https://www.artstation.com/artwork/3EdWYm ). Reading his description over, I "think" the images of the 05 might be CG. They look like an actual prop to me. Maybe this guy is just REALLY good.
He says "Wētā Workshop created the practical props and did an amazing job of translating the digital model to a physical model" and "Thanks also to smagda64 on the RPF for the floor tile model which I used as a basis for my model." Those two statements are what makes me think that the images are actually renderings of a 3D model he created.
I'm also surprised there's no "Art of..." or some kind of similar photo book that came out for the movie. They usually do that for the Alien films. Maybe after the last 2 Ridley ones didn't do great, they didn't want to get stuck with a bunch of unsold books? If they do one now, after the movie is moderately successful, it would probably be rushed anyways. But I'm always on the look out for good and rare images. Maybe they'll have some prop goodness on the 4K/Blu Ray extras when the discs come out (looked for a release date yesterday but didn't see anything).
Thanks again, Flyscriber. Can't wait to see more updates!
