Doors to the storage compartments onboard the Narcissus shuttle diorama are complete - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Needs some cleaning up and of course paint (coming later) but doors for both sides are good to go. Second image shows the inside of the door - using different color styrene because I ran out - no significance other than that. It will all be painted anyway :) . Ripley hides just inside the compartment.....#alien #narcissus #nostromo #diorama
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
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.
I used some bondo and styrene to fill in large gaps and widen an old Lockheed jet model. I don't know where the jet came from, but it wasn't built or painted very well, so I scrapped it as a donor. I'll likely leave the rear open with the engine exposed under a rollcage. Honestly the wheels were my inspiration to build a model like this.
Further fitting the parts together (exposed rear). Without something in the rear it looks too unbalanced, which is why I like the red container in the back.
Based on reference photos from 'Two Factory' book ( page Y-59).
I was playing with the light and my camera phone for this photo effect. This
model is still a work in progress.

Shed number 1 is now more or less complete. I still have to devise, make and fit some brackets to hold the drain pipes in place but other than that the job is complete and I am very satisfied.
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.
Something I starting piecing together last night; a 1/35 scratchbuild loosely based on Kow Yokoyama's Zerstover.

The fiber optics are left long at this poiint. Once everything is done and painted the fiber optics will be snipped off flush with the walls and they will look like nice little green lights on the wall. Should be a very cool effect.

Build update on the MU/TH/UR 6000 "MOTHER" Chamber for the Nostromo - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Rough images but they show the interior frame build (walls) is complete and I'm beginning to work on the ceiling. The flower-like design will be attached to clear acrylic so natural light can pass through. The ceiling you see in this image will drop much further down. More to come! :) #alien #nostromo #MUTHUR6000 #scratchbuild #modelbuild #diorama
