Hello everybody, my first venture into the space and science-fiction genre: an UFO built from scratch. I did not try to recreate something from a specific TV series or movie. The idea was rather to build something just based on my imagination and skills without a kit. Obviously, scratch-building a UFO is much easier than scratch-building a real plane or tank because I can always adjust the desigen to my capabilities. I decided not to use spare parts from kits or plastic waste like soap bottles and so on although that would have been fun, too. The materials used were plastic sheet, profiles and wire. The WIP can be found here: https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235120880-scratch-built-ufo/ Thanks for looking! Every comment welcome!

I started this around 10 years ago (David Tennant was still Dr Who at the time) and got partway through the first Dalek, then got stuck on the paintwork, handpainting of the black just wasn't working, so it went back into its box and sat there. Subsequently I returned to scale modelling and I've taken to using an airbrush sooo time to tackle that Kit, with the Kits GB providing that extra push to get me moving. This will also be my first Britmodeller GB. First order of business, using a rattle can paint the sub assemblies for Dalek Caan ready for masking and airbrushing the black detail around each dome.
