Here's my SWORD-Y-KINS fleet that I made in 2009.
Basically miniature Project SWORD and SpaceX toys, I made them by painting and customising Kinder egg toys, Space Voyagers toys, Micro Machines and a professionally made resin model Salvage Craft. The Blackbird is a toy and as it was, unaltered.
They are :
left to right: top: Space glider, green Lunar Climber, Dyna Soar. Bottom: red Scout 3, Photonic Space Station, yellow Salvage Craft. Front: Reconnaissance 3
I made a backing card for a the fleet too using existing illustrations.
They look quite good on the card.
Especially with a blister pack on top!
I also knocked up some mini boxes for them as well, which was fun to do.
What do you think?
Have you made any miniature toys?
excellent work,really.. ew
ReplyDeleteThanks EW. They were fun to do. Nearly ten years ago now!
DeleteI agree with ew! Great piece of creativity going on there, Woodsy. Particularly like the detailed look of that green Lunar Climber :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tone. Yep, that Lunar Climber was a small multi-wheeled Kinder vehicle that I added modelling clay to to create the shape of the C21 Climber. The accessories were from my odds'n'sods box. The wheels that were already on it really gave it the right look. I'll never own the real thing so this will do!
