  1. The Martian Underside! This is the Underside of the Dish with the underside of the UFO fit in place where it will be positioned later. I am using a 1/16th" Drill Bit to cut plastic. I will use it kind of like a router bit. I cut out most of the plastic that would have been under the UFO Underside. More Coming...

  3. MARTIAN FLYING SAUCER! I am going to build a 9" Flying Saucer using the Dish Section of the AMT USS Yamaguchi for the main Body. I am getting Martians and other Details from the Pegasus Alpha Centauri UFO Kit. I will probably add Lights later. I just got New Decals for the Saucer. They are the aftermarket TSDS Decals for the Alpha Centauri Kit. More Coming...
  4. MORE than Enough! Thanks Bill...

  6. Moon Tanks! It seemed like almost every Model from the 1960's had a Moon Tank in it. There were very popular back then. I found 2 Moon Tanks in 2 different kits, not so easy to find Moon Tanks in the new kits. Here is one of the Tanks on the left side. Here is the other one. More Coming...
  7. Me Too! Mock-Up Coming Later...
  8. Color? Pretty soon, but I want to finish the chassis first...
  9. Thanks for the kind words Dale! So glad you are enjoying it...
  10. Protection! I cut out and added sheet plastic panels to the front of the Roll Cage and behind the Driver. I brushed on some Flat Black Paint and then noticed a couple spots that needed Filling. Instead of using putty I added Formula 560 White Glue to the holes and gaps with a toothpick. After the glue dried I brushed on another coat of Flat Black. More Coming...
  11. Thanks Glenn! I like Different...
  12. Looks Great!
  13. Thanks David! So glad you are enjoying it...
  14. Shinny Pipes! I lightly Sanded the Pipes and Sprayed them with Tamiya Silver Leaf. I also added & painted a few more details. I glued the Pipes in with Zap-A-Gap. I really like the look of the Aluminum Tubing at end of the Pipes. Here is the other side. More Coming...
  15. Thanks Andre! Glad you are enjoying it...
  16. Smooth Pipes! I attached the 2 Lengths of Aluminum Tubing to the ends of the Pipes with Zap-A-Gap. Then I put some Apoxy on the seam and pressed it to fit around pretty well. Next I put a little water on my finger and smoothed the Apoxy down pretty well. I will still need to sand a little in the morning. More Coming...
  17. Thanks Chris! Yes, I plan to be at NNL West next year. See you there...
