More from the modified Wave Serpent.
As I rebuilt the engine intakes I noticed a section of the hull that could become an engine access hatch. So I cut away the section, scratch-built engines into the interior space and then created hinges to make the hatches.
On top, the new turret can still rotate as it can on the vanilla model, but the new gun can also elevate.
Additional angles of the Deinobot.
On the shoulders are 2 40k Wave Serpent energy spines,
The "eye" on the head is from a 40k Tau kit,
Around the waist are some Space Marine vehicle vents, A smoke launcher sits between the hips behind these,
Between the legs is a spare part from the HAW206 kit,
The chest is a spare nose part from a Westland Lynx helicopter kit,
And there are a few more, less recognisable, parts about.

Some more views of the UFO abduction diorama.
It does amuse me that the UFO is barely large enough for a crew, let alone the addition of a full size (and likely upset) cow.
Final shots of the Noxious Blightbringer.

A couple more angles of the Thorin Oakenshield / Goblin King diorama.
The majority of the lighting was painted with dry-brushing or over-brushing (same but a "wetter" brush).

The grip of the lightsabre prop is part of the pole that held a shower head. Being real metal means it polished up really well.
The trigger mechanism uses half a clip from a clothes hangar as a lever.
This pushes down a plastic rod "plunger" to depress a spring housed in a larger rod inside the body of the lightsabre.
Proof that the sails of the repaired windmill do now move.
After decades of being glued in place, this windmill is free.
The underside of the Raider gunship is painted blue to camouflage the (otherwise quite visible) aircraft from the ground.
The wings are adorned with weapons as with the helicopter gunships I took inspiration from.
The inspiration also led to the addition of an under-nose camera pod for tracking targets and the like.

As with the other hatches, the driver has a viewport for when they are not using the VR goggles and other sensors that are wired into their brain.
Having spent all of their time inside the tank, the Ork driver is now pale-skinned.
You also get a view of the 'nid gunner here.
A look at the front of the N-gauge train shed.
And a "before" photo to show where it started when I rescued it from a box.
