UPDATE

After rearranging the panels etc in the structure I have come up with something that works and looks better. The back wall panels are old Megablox lengths that looked the part. The small portion of the wall has the bottom from a pack of Mr Kipling's Country Slices...and jolly nice they were too The floor are small foam tiles from a craft shop. The whole lot has had its grey primer coat, more to paint before weathering adding stuff etc. Also the Alien has had some gob-drool added, which has worked rather well. A pipework truss/walkway will be made and then damaged at the end so it looks like the Alien has burst down from above.

Ta mate, last night I was all fired up and not really thinking straight in placing stuff etc...but I was ill in the night, I had a flare up, very painful hands, arms and legs. Managed to get down stairs and stayed there until after 3am. My wife got me back into bed, dosed up and didn't make a start on the interior until around 2ish. Hope tonight is better and that I haven't overdone it, the cold has gotten to me a bit.

Thank you Polux, cheap Megablox kit my son got many years ago...decided to keep it, as you do, it has worked really well. Glad you like it.

But remember to factor in the "aliens have acid for blood" when arranging the splatter pattern. There should be a lot of little burn holes everywhere...

Aye Steve, got that covered, melting via heat, soldering iron and then dripping silicone painted in a nice chrome/black colour. Should work...I hope.

Take it easy mate , this truss is it like a bunch of pipes running along the ceiling ?

Yes, made two carries out of some old handles that will house the ali mesh, then pipework will be added, had to work out the size and height as I nearly forgot the size of the figures lol, there wouldn't have been enough space for them! That's the problem, getting carried away adding things and realise that the setting is useless for the intended figures...
