Nice. This reusing household objects or completely sculpted? I don't recognise anything!

C'mon, fess up.

The bow section MIGHT be a scabbard, maybe off a toy warrior.

Whatever, after a few more guesses, you SHOULD share.

Did you see TMP has started a separate Scratchbuilding thread. As I stated there, I'm hoping to see most crossposted.

And, of course, WELL DONE!

Some Lego kits have similar parts - if you filled in the "tell-tale" connector bits. Hmmm, curious to find out what you used now.

The rear 'engine' was on the end off a toy crane. The turrets came from two surces ,the 1st were cut off an old plastic sprue ,the others came from a cheap toy plastic 'scifi  Trex' ,it was bought to be cannibalised as it had some very nice bits on it.
Now the ship itself . I have no idea what it was or where it originally came from. I found it in a charity shop in a box of miscellaneous toys. Nothing else in the box or the store looked as if it went with this piece of plastic. As soon as i saw it i thought WOW that will make a great space ship!
