I'd love to build it in G.I.Joe (3- 3/4") scale but alas Star Trek figures are the larger TMNT ( ? ) scale, which would make the shuttle a bit large and unwieldy for any practical play purposes.

Truly wicked and brilliantly executed !

Didn't see a good 'fit' for this in any other category so here goes: I'm introducing my (second generation) nephews to tabletop gaming and miniatures play, 'dumbing-down' the basic rules for Battletech and Car Wars in that effort. To do so I needed some large format graph and hex , which is...

Nice progress, basing anything off a Matt Jefferies' design is a good place to start !

Very cool, I scored one of the Pepsi promotional R2D2 'coolers' that were in all the convenience stores back then. Like all of such that survived the 'dome' was crap so your project might be inspiration on an easy fix.

Pardon my cynicism, it's television, it's worse actually, reality television which means it's all scripted

I'll bide my time until two competitors square off in Aliens' Power Lifter-style exo-frames, to me that's Real Steel !

Awesome ! Always had a place in my heart for any mech with a skull face.

I've played different RPGs on tabletop with different miniatures of all kinds, what I can suggest for anyone having that interest in general is think outside the box, meaning look beyond licensed or traditional items. I browse a lot of dollar-type retail stores for 20mm/25mm-1/72 scale figures...

Consider that a definitely-happy-to-share guarantee, likely to cross-post any links here as the project would have several other sites 'eligible' such as Instructables and Dakka-Dakka. And for those not playing splatterball, a NERF adaptation is in the works as well.

This is very cool, I've often wonder why in 40K there haven't been more non-conventional applications of dreadnoughts such as a quad-walker chassis or similar to the rail-variant, a Predator equipped with a 'torso' in lieu of a standard turret.

One of my favorite tools for scoring paper is a 'expended' rolling ball pen, generally a Sanford Uniball variety but any like make-manufacturer when used with a straight edge tool will produce such cleanly and clearly.

Again, Wow ! That glove treatment looks great and really enhances the 'authenticity' of the model as viewed against it's full-sized counterpart.

Watching Stingray, Fireball XL5 and Thunderbirds were-are treasured memories and moments of my childhood, a tip of the hat in respect to the memory of the man who generously provided such.

Not a commonly found material these days but the venerable onion skin paper once so commonly used in typewriters might be an option. http://www.thepapermillstore.com/paper/onion-skin-paper
