It seems that the next Group build on SFM:UK will be alternative armour ie 2 and 4 legged walkers and hover tanks and well anything that's not your bog standerd tracked armoured vehicle. So with this in mind i've been looking at the Junk Tank Rock site and from there found a few more links to Ma.k Blogs and sites. All this is in japanese and not wanting to kill my PC i've not been translating them so it's a bit like playing russian roulett when you hit a link. The JTR forum seems to be having a discussions about ladys handbags :0 and wrist watches uh.
Heres a couple of links to be going on with so ya know what the devil i'm on about lol

I'm going to dig out some links for Dust models also as they are a great source of inspiration for the group build also.
I've got a couple of ideas for my builds taking some design cues from Junk Tank Rock and to a lesser exstent Dust.
Dooodles may be getting posted next possible of ideas for this or maybe random stuff unrelated to this ;)

The holy of holys if ya have a fat wallet and little sense.
Incredible Fruit being told the price of an old Halcyon kit in Comet lol
Holidays are all over now, was very nice seeing my big sister and Alex and Ed also. Plus i started the week with a meet up in London of some of the SFM:UK crew and a visit to Comet Miniatures. Also Maidstone seems to have a better class of reader as i picked up half a dozen good scifi/alt history books from the charity shops there, result!
Back to modelling stuff soon as my thumb gets better ( it very poorly)

Off on me Hols (at last)
Well it's only 2 days till we set of on holiday and I'm looking forward to it immensely (bit knackered of late) Unfortunately all the pre camping prep means I'm not going to finish of the Victorian moon lander in time (damn it) and gonna lose a week on the FRS (double damn it). I here by promise to finish of both builds before attempting any more scratchbuilds and to complete at least 2 OOB kit builds before i start on my Uber project.
I may be able to update the blog whilst away with my sisters laptop so i can report on the SFM meet at Comet Miniatures on Saturday.

Bench update at last
Quick shot of a 1/16 figure I'm converting to a futuristic fighter pilot. Still in the early stages but something i can pick up whilst things dry and such.
Big antenna
Some paneling and my first attempt at casting, the yellow stuff was a casting from the bottom of a plastic package that the Sunday dinner chicken came in. I thought it would look good as a sensor bank or sum such thing.
