  1. Just started this one today: Yeah, need to refine the face and hair a bit; this is still in progress. But I was never a fan of Matchbox's attempts; need to find a set of hands for him and make the outfit (sewing...erk. ) Stay tuned, miclones...
  2. You could go back in with a very fine mechanical pencil, then seal it and no one should be able to tell the difference.
  3. Well, with a little work, they actually can become quite decent: (Gloval was actually made from a GI Joe "Dress Blues Gung-Ho" figure; Lisa was heavily modded from the actual Lisa Hayes figure).
  4. Lucky you... I turn 50 next year! O.o (where did the time go?! )
  5. I'd love for them to bring Paul McGann back for a proper run!
  6. Looks like Poison Ivy from DC Comics trying to get it on with a purple mummy....
  7. That would be the Skydancer: I found this pic here, along with info on the series: https://thedorkreview.blogspot.com/2015/09/cool-article-bionic-six.html I'd love to see that! Meantime, I think the other craft in Galaxy Rangers (the one you have a pic of above) is the Interceptor. They actually have a printable version someone designed: https://betamountain.org/index.php/Printable_Ranger_Interceptor https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4950691
  8. Tom Baker was "The Doctor" when I was growing up; never really warmed up to any of the other classic Doctors. Of the new ones, I liked all of them except for Jodie Whittaker (her take on the Doctor seemed a bit "off" to me). At first I didn't like Peter Capaldi, but he ended up growing on me (especially after his Zygon Inversion speech). Matt Smith's first speech to the Atraxi was awesome, and I loved Chris Eccleston's take when he first encountered "Cassandra" in the episode "The End of the World". Some of my favorite moments: Tom Baker: Christopher Eccleston: David Tennant: Matt Smith: Peter Capaldi:
  9. You know... I had nearly forgotten about Galaxy Rangers until you mentioned it Thom! And yeah; I still build cardboard models! Was this the one you tried building: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115162374841 Hmm... thinking maybe of of those ships would be a nice next project...
  10. You were 12 years old in 1996?!!! Somebody get me my walker...
  11. Hence the saying Safety Regulations Are Written In Blood...
  12. First Secretary of USSR: "Are you enjoying your ride, Mr. Gant? Do you like our new toy?" Gant: "it could be improved..." First Secretary of USSR: "Heh... your expert opinion, Mr. Gant?" Gant: "You could say that..." I have this movie on DVD...sometime I need to scratch this plane up. BTW derex: here's the movie for free online if you want to watch it: https://www.lookmovie2.to/movies/play/1689756702-firefox-1982
  13. I know....but still funny and applies.
  14. I'm not sure I would believe Rotten Tomatoes on much of anything; I've discussed elsewhere with folks about them and they are of the opinion RT is largely solicited.
  15. Maybe the pilot has schizophrenia? o.o
  16. Yeah; it was based on a design I did for the "United Earth Armed Forces" (UEAF) seal right before finishing the base that I then painted by hand onto it: Thanks!! Both of you inspired me and assisted me in many ways with this build, whether you know it or not!
  17. Ah... usually, I cut out a chuck of Styrofoam from a block of the stuff I have lying around, spray paint it until it's melty and pitted, finish with some acrylics and then seal it.
  18. And then attempted to turn the Sun into a torus by connecting two warp cores?
  19. Nice work Thom! That lady looks ready for an evening out (blasting Gamilas ships that is!). 👍 Speaking of "done": BTW: you used the same wooden plaque I did!
  20. ROFL!! I could always name it a Plymouth class fighter.
  21. Ain't got one yet... still working on it.
  22. Thanks! Galaga, anyone? Seriously though, some UPDATES- Did some detailing and a bit of decaling; also got the canopy permanently glued in, as well as a (temporary) base for it: (Would you believe the "guns" are actually masts from an old Revell Mayflower model kit? O.o ) Stay tuned folks...
  23. Unfortunately, I had to remove the huge cannon barrel on the underside, as it was causing the fuselage to split. It still has a cannon under there, but the barrel now runs the length mostly of the underside aft of the cockpit: Still a pretty big gun, all things considered! As for this ship's purpose: I was thinking more along the lines of destroying weaponized asteroids being fired at Earth by a malevolent colony world or some such thing.
