  Recent experiments have shown that various structures may be formed during
the evaporative dewetting of thin films of colloidal suspensions. Nano-particle
deposits of strongly branched `flower-like', labyrinthine and network
structures are observed. They are caused by the different transport processes
and the rich phase behaviour of the system. We develop a model for the system,
based on a dynamical density functional theory, which reproduces these
structures. The model is employed to determine the influences of the solvent
evaporation and of the diffusion of the colloidal particles and of the liquid
over the surface. Finally, we investigate the conditions needed for
`liquid-particle' phase separation to occur and discuss its effect on the
self-organised nano-structures.
