Dampf's modelling page

I've been modelling, painting miniatures and wargaming since I was a wee lad in Swansea, this blog details some of my interests - I hope that you like it. In 2010 I started a new modelling venture - building 40mm AWI/ACW terrain pieces and designing 28mm masters, which are then cast and available for sale from Grand Manner. - All original images and text are copyright of A.

Flash Gordon - Rocketship

Here you see my scratch built model of a Flash Gordon Rocketship with Flash, a 40mm Graven Images miniature shown for scale.

Photo 2 shows the Rocketship before painting. The nose is a plastic wine glass, the main body a thermos flask and the tail section a plastic Barbie cup. The fins are from plastic cards and the panel sections are sticky-back-plastic with sliced plastic rod rivets.

Photos three and four are the completed Rocketship taken against a black background.

The painted Rocketship shows signs of damage and wear as it has always been my intention to model the Rocketship as crash-landed on a themed terrain boards.

The model is 300mm long, 190mm wide and 130mm tall and was painted using acrylic paints, the red was airbrushed.
