The Invaders

The erie clouds kept changing form and from them emerged this UFO!

 

This UFO is actually my latest and first custom lighted build. I bought the discontinued NIB (new in box) unbuilt Monogram model kit from ebay. I added a custom built light kit from VoodooFX and added custom made lenses from Don's Light and Magic. The clear acrylic domes I found online and replaced the red lenses that came with the kit. I also changed the blue dome LEDs that came with the light kit and soldered in aqua LEDs. I wanted to make a more accurate prop reproduction from the original TV series from 1967-68. I airbrushed using Alclad II duraluminun lacquer as the main body paint.
