A Mother Ship and Lunar Rover.- Made from card and junk......

[spanner570]

So sad that Ian's proposed Sci-Fi 'Fun' G.B. fell short of the required number by just one more member joining the build.....

I have little interest in Sci-Fi, but unperturbed, I'm going ahead with what was to be my entry.

"There's life, Jim, but not as we know it!" So spoke 'Scottie', Chief Engineer on board The Star Ship U.S.S. Enterprise.

This famous quote will be the basis for this build.

All I have in mind thus far is summat wot will carry summat else and boldly go where no man has gone before - Deep Space!

I will scratch build the things from whatever is at hand. I haven't a clue what scale it will be. I will just design and build it to a comfortable and manageable size. They will be a complete figment of my imagination....Gawd help me!

....so countdown to blast off has commenced.

Hi Ron
Good to see you've been let out - again. Meds must be working.
I shall enjoy seeing what your modelling skills and crazy imagination come up with.

Good to see the creative juices are running again Ron……..I wonder what you’ll turn out……be difficult to throw the model up to space for photography though…..
Montgomery Scott is a worthwhile actor to quote, by the way, he landed on Juno beach during D Day and was wounded in the line of duty……

Oh my, well we can expect bits of the new conservatory, bit of pond lining and quite a few polystyrene bases.

Interesting idea Ron!

Shame about the GB I was looking forward to it, been collecting crap/ materials! Might jump on board when I get some other stuff finished.

Thanks everyone for the most excellent and humorous posts. It's good to know I won't be drifting around in me capsule on me'yown.

I just hope Matron doesn't cotton on to where I'm going!

Mark, yes it is and all for the sake of just one more 'Joinee'

Why don't you do what I'm doing and build something anyway?

"Ground control to Major Tom": Just letting you know you're not alone. Maybe we can't help directly, but you got a lot of moral support!

PS When you talk about life, but not as we know it, does that mean you've finally found a use for all that pink belly-button fluff you so carefully collected and saved all those years ago?
