Brilliant looking model, but my word, and I do hate to criticize, but in my humble opinion, that's is quite a horrific stand???

Thank you...It was never repeated for absolutely years on the BBC, which was unheard of in the 80's - unaware of its global release, but as the Australian and some E.U countries helped out with the cost of the production it was shown in those territories Guilty! borrowed it for a week! Who...

Winging it again! It'll never fly...

Thank you, it made for great impedance to get them done. I do tend to have a lot of unfinished projects, but the deadline helped me get them done. There's still the filament one to finish, so I'll continue to add the progress of that one on here as well...

Cheers matey, I'll send them your love... I might even give them a rub for you!

A high accolade indeed, thank you so much

Tripod build final Close up of the slot around the head where the plastic strip was inserted Mr Silver was first to be finished - bloody camera miss-focused onto my neighbours flat! Closely followed by Mr Red Really happy with this picture, in natural light they almost look real...

A masterpiece, you do humble me so... A mere passionate modeller Yes, the caps do make for a good base, the wooden one was laser etched??? by the model maker, I've had to make another as you'll see. Tripod lolly now there's a treat

I remember the scene, but not the prop... interesting stuff

One for me, one for the resistance! There were a lot of flying spiders about that day, the parts came back indoors 'webbed' - I do have a airbrush, but its early days for me to get a good spray at low pressure indoors. Yes, they may look symmetrical, but not as you rightly say all have small...

I also left the can in the sun in-between coats, spraying in the Autumn months is not really ideal, but the result from the Tamiya spray was very good.

Many congratulations on a model well done

PART 2 of the Tripod builds. Moving on from the filamented Tripod, it was time to move onto preparing the resin parts, which still had a little clean up needed, tiny support nubs here and there. A few underneath to take care of too. The leg tolerances on the legs joins were incredibly...

Yes, one will be red and the other silver, stay tuned... Loved your synopsis on the general overview of production, couldn't have said it better myself!

nah, can't be bothered with all that interwebbage nonsense, and when I have it on the shelf already, there's no need ;)

I can almost taste the finish, slurp, slurp!

veery 'shiny'

Cheers bud, @zathros supplied the links - I hope you get to watch the series and maybe find a copy of the books to read

Unfortunately your videos are ironically copyrighted in my country where I have a tv license!!! Glad I have the dvds... I do have industrial sized elastic bands, but this was super glue and I only had to hold it for 30 seconds.
