    TWIKI - "bidi, bidi, bidi!" A 3d Print

    As a kid watching the Buck Rodgers tv show of the late 70's early 80's this loveable little robot had a unique charm. I had the Mego action figures of Mr Rodger's and Twiki when they were first released, Buck survives, but only in pieces and Twiki has been lost to the world! Its quite sad to...

    "toronto gosh!" said 3-P0 or "lets build an AT-AT"

    When I saw The Empire Strikes Back as a 10 year old, the main vehicle which stuck in my mind was the Imperial Walkers. Their lumbering hulks thumping over the snow was truly mesmerising... The All Terrain Armoured Transports currently ranks at number two in my Star Wars hardware of love, so I...

    Lamborghini Countach - A simple build

    As a kid my brother Dale had his cabinet full of spaceships, but in the midst of them all was this lone car - The Lamborghini Countach. Its sublime and futuristic design stuck with me all through my childhood and whenever possible I would buy Matchbox and other toy cars of this beautiful...

    Recovery or REME vehicles which come to the aid of, or help out on the battle field are some of my favourite tracked vehicles. Cranes, odd attachments, cables, stowage and bulldozers - all those cool things which make them look better than a massive gun! When this was put up for download, I...

    "khaaaaan!" The Wrath of Khan - A mini face-off!

    As a fair-weather supporter of Star Trek over the years my interest in all things nacelles started and pretty much ended with the Wrath of Khan. The Enterprise, whilst beloved by many is not really in my top-ten star ships, but the Reliant would certainly fill one of those spots. Looking...

    Nautilus - Disney Version

    As a child the Nautilus as it appears in the 1954 Disney film captivated me. The gothic looking submarine with its monstrous looking eyes was very alluring.

    Y-WING BUILD - Construction continues...

    With a love of Star Wars and the many star ships and vehicles within the universe, the Y-Wing or The Koensayr BTL Y-wing assault starfighter/bomber has to be my favourite. Generally considered to be the workhorse to the the more glamorous X-Wing. A kind of real world comparison could be the...
