Dr. The Viking's current ramblings: Dark Side of The Moon page 35

Super robots! The Robot Master is especially cool!

I'm happy you like that one... little geezer almost had me giving up at a point. Didn't know what to do about the plume. I think I might have to get another one and take the plume off and paint him up the same way as the first.  

Or maybe three more without plumes and call the apprentices!

I just have to share this page I just found by fellow toy builder Bob Rosenberg:

this got my attention:

I imagine there are lots of opportunities for moding the miniature.  Crest, open right hand, staff. Lots of stuff.

Perhaps a personal guard?

 I'm a wee bit late to this project, but everything is really cool!! Out of a good bunch im loving the robot army best! Also thanks for putting me on to Hydra Miniatures, I hadn't heard of them before.

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Scorpion brain! how silly is that? And how great

[Dr. The Viking]

Kalle Blixt - the main character of my show!

[Ray Rivers]

 

Splendid paint job! Really super!

[Auton]

Nicely done 

[Dr. The Viking]

Thanks!

I've begun the work on his ship... got lucky in Toys'R'Us 

[Heldrak]

Excellent job on Blixt! 

[Thunderchicken]

It's all looking excellent Dr V, looking forward to the next installment.

What did you find ya b**tard!? I scour my local Toys 'R' Us for bargains and always find bugger all!

Great paint job on Blixt. 

The yellow and blue combo looks sweet.

Can't wait to see more.

Well... it might not be a 'find' as much as yet something I found.



But it will be mightily useful for me as Kalle Blixt's rocket ship!

It a cheap playmobil (for even smaller children) rocket.


And the next faction arrived from Killer B Games just today! Behold the awesome Colony of The Magma Men!


I was a bit surprised to see that the model I'll be using for Werner Blitz (Klug Pluton) was rather large. But OK - Werner will be bigger than Jens and Kalle then. Maybe he'll shrink when I paint him..

And now here's a piece of music to fill the intermission, happy weekends!

Excellent. I see you've employed some Svennn Productions rivet strips already. I've been utilising some of those recently.

[Centaur_Seducer]

Awesome and Awful at the same time. I love it!
