Crooked Dice Astronauts...

the soon to be released Astronauts from Crooked Dice, painted for Karl and Graeme @ CD in a Space:1999-esque fashion...

Melody Lake and not who you might think it might be from a certain library... no spoilers...

Karl wanted them all to be part of the British Rocket Group, but after an entire evening trying to get the one Union flag right the air was very very blue - Melody managed to be British (just), but the other two became French and Chinese...

the bases need a finishing touch and they need a dullcote - the base is shiney, but looks much better from above... sigh...

Windmill 123...

UNIT helicopter...

1/48 Corgi diecast Bell 47 that was one of many bargains from Salute (cheers Karl)... basic repaint over the existing job - made easy as the plastic/metal used the same olive green as me (although have noticed a blip in the pic on the top of the skid which stands out, may have rubbed some paint off without realising...), the danger sticker was on the original (carefully painted around) and homemade UNIT decals were added...

couldn't for the life of me remove the bubble canopy to paint the interior (the single screw did nothing when unscrewed) so it was either paint it or have a crappy plastic interior... on the plus side, it matches the Mobile HQ and Lanny windows and will never look like it's piloted by the invisible man...

speaking of which a flight stand is in hand...
