KLINGON SPACESHIP- SINGLE WARRIOR BATTLEPOD- HO' JEJQU' ("VERY SHARP TOOTH") CLASS- "CASHUALTY"
"UNDER DURAS..."
Budgeting the construction of the one-to-one scale Klingon spaceship prop was a matter of diligent calculation.
A specialist in accounting was called in and encouraged to do his best work.....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are some (but by no means all) of the purchases made during the construction of this project:
ALL PURPOSE RED SPRAY ENAMEL (X2) - $5.96
SPRAY ENAMEL COPPER HAMMERED METAL FINISH (X2) - $23.42
VINYL TABLECLOTH CRYSTAL CLEAR (137CM X 1MM) - $26.80
BAR ALUMINIUM FLAT 2M (X7) - $77.77
MEDIUM DENSITY FIBREBOARD VARIOUS SIZES AND THICKNESSES (ABOUT 12 SHEETS) - $48.15
DRILL BITS - $12.25
HEXHEAD BOLTS - $39.00
(All prices in Aussie roo-bles)
The vinyl tablecloth listed was especially heavy clear plastic that I used to make the transparent canopy for the spaceship....perspex sheeting would undoubtedly have been better but wouldn't have fit within the budget.
Fortunately, I didn't have to buy much paint, since I already had in stock a four litre can of acrylic that was already tinted yellow. Adding blue and touches of other colour gave me the basic green hue that I needed for the main body of the ship.
Regarding the picture, I decided that those bloody Duras Sisters, Lursa and B'Etor, were in the best position to help the Ferengi with figures....
The most irritating thing about this set-up was that the two Klingon sheilas kept overbalancing and falling down. Guess it was their instruments of torture that kept making them topple!
