Continuing my thread of getting round the outer sphere, the next port of call is Klendathu, an ugly planet, a planet where an invasion goes wrong. And if you're a Dalek, well, this is where your invasion goes very wrong. Rose Tyler with a great big gun!
The lighting and camera work is appalling.. sorry! I claim it looks much better on table...
And so on to Skaro, for Doctors. And the next Doctor in my Whovian ouevre... A man who needs no introduction.
Well these guys are.. the Fokker Eindekker, 1/144 3d prints from designs by Jimbo, decals courtesy of Pendraken, and they transformed the war in the air with a forward firing synchronised machine gun.
I have printed bases as well, pending the arrival of some clear hexes and rods from eBay. They are set up for the WW1 version of the TooFatLardies 'Bag the Hun' - 'Algy Pulls it Off'. Next, where would we be if we didn't have a few 'Heath Robinson'esque' Allied Scouts for the Eindekkers to tangle with? So here we have that masterpiece of aviation design...
The DH2. As we haven't figured out how to synchronise the machine gun to the propeller, we will just have to put the prop on the back.
Points wise.. ok
2 x Dr Who figures @5 each = 10,
6 x 10mm 'vehicles' @3 each = 18
two uter ring planets @ 20 = 40
one centre ring @20
a grand (ok not so grand) total of 88 points.. and the two Dr Who figures bring me to 25, this making it a legal 'Squirrel' -
Nice work all round, Doug! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamsin.. meanwhile, the top secret major paint project continues. Loving your entries too.
DeleteHard to think of a scrappier companion or a more coked up Doctor! Well done.
ReplyDeleteCheers, MikeP
Jellybaby ?
ReplyDeleteDon't mind if I do.
DeleteIIRC there was an episode where there was some sort of pseudo-scientific justification for the jelly-babies.
Great work on the doctor, that scarf must have taken a while. The planes and Rose look cool too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful work on the Doctor.
ReplyDeleteExcellent doctor! Rose and the eindeckers are great too!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain. More planes to come, but a little later war.
ReplyDeleteGreat work. Rose was my favourite companion, and gotta love those Fokkers
ReplyDeleteFor me, those Fokkers are the cherry on the top of this post, downright awesome!
ReplyDeleteAllways nice to see some WW1 airplanes
ReplyDeleteGreat painting Doug.
ReplyDeleteThey are all great, but I really love the Doctor. That scarf is absolutely brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI’m envious of Rose’s jacket!
ReplyDeleteLoving that Doctor Who.
