Saucer Project

I'll save you the trouble now... the pictures are shite... it's too big to fit in my light tent, the lighting is all over the place and I had to buy a sheet of paper big enough for it as well, so they are not up to my usual standard...

anyhoo... the painted saucer... very monotone really, it will be completely generic, the Dalek was just to hand and is likely to get the most use of it (the Dalek is part of the rebasing project so hence the mess around the base edge), but should be useful for loads of stuff... not bad for a couple of broken clocks...



after discussion on Frothers, went with the no landing gear option... the clear rod supports the saucer, the ramp actually gives quite a bit of stability and has a very small foot print... at 45degrees the ramp is a touch steep, so there are a couple of strips that stop figures from sliding down...

shots of the underside and the hatch (with a couple of ground defence lasers ), the ramp is left detachable as it will be easier to store that way...
