Final photos of my N-gauge home.

Complete with scale photos.
This whole model would sit easily within a 2x2x2 inch cube.

More views of the cartoon concept tractor model.

While the majority of the model is scratchbuilt, I did squeeze in a kit engine and transmission. Visible through the wheelarches and underneath.

More views of this UFO crash.

The shape of the UFO was built from a collection of the weirdest-shaped pieces of junk from my "pile".

Deliberately stuck together to form the most non-symmetrical shape I could.

I then added wires and putty "hoses", and then brought it all together with epoxy putty.

Scale photos of the Noisy Cricket prop replica.

As pointless as the grip may seem, it does sit nicely against the base of the finger.

I magnetised the "waist" of the multi-ped forklift, mainly for ease of storage etc. but it does mean it can rotate.

The central cylinder of the "hips" is an empty Humbrol metal paint pot.
Therefore I only needed a single magnet on the bottom of the cab structure to complete the job.

I added a guide rail and pegs so that the cab rotates in place.

Front views of the Luggage Mimic.

I sculpted 4 feet, 2 left and 2 right, and made a mould of each.
The casts were removed from the mould early and reposed before curing fully.
They all required some tidying up before adding them to the chest.

More angles of the Outer Worlds pistol prop replica.

Not having handled many guns irl, I was surprised at how thick the average pistol grip is.
It makes sense, for comfort and to house the magazine, but there is no way I would have guessed.

Bard the bowman remains calm atop the burning tower, and readies his bow.

The smoke and fire are made of cotton. I chose a wind direction and made sure to tease out the cotton to match.
I gave thought to how the smoke would be pulled around the building, find it's way out of the ladder's hatch and through a hole in the railing.

Some closer views of the Trench diorama.

The notebook on the radio includes a pencil.
And while the water-cooled machinegun is the main weapon here, there is a backup pistol, and grenades.

Outside, the repaired trench includes much scrap metal, some wood, part of a tank, a skull (perhaps non-intentionally), and a discarded softdrink bottle.
