Sculpt progress on the derelict corridor - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Sculpted the base of the Giger corridor today to give it more stability and filled in some gaps. Sculpted down the floor of the corridor to make way for sculpted detail which will be sculpted using FIXIT sculpt. More to come! #alien #giger #corridor #derelict #diorama #sculpting #avesstudio
Partially scratchbuild Fire Brushtruck based on a 1:18 MAISTO Hummer. Beside the front end up to the drivers cabine, the entire rear section is handmade by me. The Fire truck is an almost 100% replica of the brush units former used by the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD).
Since this model was made for somebody else, who wanted to apply his own decals, this truck has no markings on.
The 1966 George Pal time machine.
Scratchbuild in poplar.
I threw together some parts to show how it's going.
This is a custom Hearts of Steel : Optimus Prime, built by Griffith of monolith productions, painted by me. Its about 300 parts. This was one of the most difficult paint jobs ever for me, I had to use special resin adhering paints for the base coats. From there, I coated with lacquers and detailed with Testors Model Master enamels.
Build update on the MU/TH/UR 6000 "Mother" security corridor - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Sometimes the build requires creating pieces not seen and are made to simply give stability and bring together various parts of a diorama. Although the ceiling of the security corridor contains some detail, the main build of the frame's purpose is to plug in and hold the walls together. Nothing really fancy to show and I haven't added the ribbed detailing but hopefully you can see the progress I'm talking about. I've also included and exterior of the build from the MU/TH/UR entrance from the bridge, leading to the computer's chamber or "womb" as Sir Ridley Scott liked to call it. Looks a little similar to the actual stage build. I plan to create a nice "shell" that will cover this exterior build which will resemble the exterior of he ship and give that much more stability to the diorama. More to come! #alien #nostromo #MUTHUR6000 #diorama #scratchbuilding #diorama #corridors
Actually I'm not sure if "scratchbuilding" is 100% accurate. All the black plastic parts you see in this photo are stock of modified Athearn GP-35 parts. The rest is my work.

WIP Eldar Avatar. Scratch build over a action figure skeleton. My interpretation of the classic GWS Eldar Avatar from warhammer 40k. Worked on the project on and off for about 2yrs now, will finish and start painting only when I'm absolutely happy with it. Cheers.

Laid out and rolled a cone from 0.5mm sheet to fit the pipe coupler ring, and then extended it to match the diameter of the sprocket. The ribs add detail and will disguise any wonky curvature.
Converting an old Chimera to a Hellhound. The Graia pattern tank, scratchbuilt from a paper towel roll, some small tupperwear style cups and styrene sheet.
Building the doors of the supply room compartments for the Narcissus Shuttle - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Yawn!! I know - wow, yay doors right? Gotta do the other door and then the insides of both with clear acrylic for the view ports. #Nostromo #narcissus #shuttle #diorama #scratchbuilding
Build progress on the Narcissus Shuttle - ALIEN - 1:18 scale. No fancy shots here as its late and I'm spent - here is the frame work for the overhead as you enter the lifeboat. Only part of the shuttle that reflects decorative designs seen in the Nostromo's galley. It's a separate component that when complete will help bring together all other rear components and "lock" them into place so to speak. Ellen Ripley sculpt also a work in progress. #ALIEN #nostromo #narcissus #shuttle #diorama #scratchbuild
