what the ... hell is that UFO made of? If not for scale I'd guess the tip of an old WW ll airplane. ;)

It's an outdoor LED lamp found at my local DIY/Hardware store. I added some panel lines to the base and details on the underside, which, sadly, cannot be seen from this angle. More pics later in the thread.

Is that a Dr Kroon hover disc?

I must admit I do not catch that reference - it's a scratchbuilt rendition of a Dalek hoverbout, primarily based on the version seen in the 1960s' TV21 comic strip.

I am happy to hear, that their ship is more advanced than the Daleks ^^

thanks

i just discovered the splintered light miniatures yesterday at the local renaissance fest, and ended up with a couple of packs as a birthday gift from my son. was even more amazed to find that company is based very close to my home.

very excited to see the rats painted up here!

I think the 'Dr. Kroon' reference is to .45 Adventure.

You are lucky, because SLM have a great catalog.
I think it is good that you are close to SLM, but probably your wife doesn't think the same :D

I love Splintered Light! They are so full of character. I have quite a few painted up...you'll find they're like candy. You buy some, and want a few more, a few more...

David from Splintered Light is an awesome guy to work with, too.
