CAMBERWICK GREEN: SPACE 1999 BY KEVIN
AMT ENTERPRISE BRIDGE REVISITED
Someone put an anonymous comment on my previous AMT Enterprise build post asking what colours I used, so I thought I'd list what I personally found looked about right../
As I decided the kit looked a bit dull without a ceiling I chose to build a removable one with coloured lighting, which makes the kit look a bit like what we saw on screen.
For the wall colour and ceiling side sections I used Tamiya AS-20 Insignia White which is the same coulour I used for the upper hull on the AMT Shuttlecraft.
The soffit or underside of the lightbox above the controls I used Tamiya TS-81 Royal Light Gray, again the same colour I used for the lower hull of the Shuttlecraft.
For the monitor screen surround I used Halfords Polar Gray.
The chairs are a Tamiya light blue and black. The handrails are Tamiya gloss red. The red frieze around the base of the ceiling is matt red.
The centre of the floor is a ochre. The edge of the floor and the handrail supports are matt black, and the surrounding flooring is Halfords Shadow Black.
Hope that helps Anon.

George Vest
Having sorted a Leeds United kit for my Action Man I wanted a classic 1960's Man Utd kit, so I set about making one.
See what you think.
I coloured two white glove shirts and pairs of socks, one with poster paint and the other red food dye.
The food dye, the best of the two reds, is still wet after a week hanging outside, so it's unusable.
Is it a Ship, Is it a Plane, No! Its a ......
This is an odd one.
I thought it was a spaceship toy online.
Bit it isn't!
It's a pen!
