Chris,
Space 1999! - I'd forgotten about that, I suppose because it was live actors!!
Dave
YES Dave same here id forgotten about supercar an like you say space 1999 an UFO but ive got them all on dvd must have night on watchin them but its a hard job to get tv time as jen likes her soaps an by the time they finish im too tired to watch my dvd's an tried to watch tv in bed but no go as im just shattered after spendin my days workin on my TIGER but i'll have to have another go as it worked once with jen by sayin that i will disk record them on dvd an jen can watch her soaps next day while im up modeling on TIGER so i might be able to have a gerry anderson night again as it makes me feel younger just to watch them dvd's

Hmmm - stop motion/cgi, and only Gerry Anderson? I wouldn't count any series as a genuine part of the genre really, unless you can see the strings!!!! :tongue-out2: Sorry UFO, Space 1999 & Space Precinct fans!

Done some more work on this. Got sink holes filled and sanded, also cut the wings and made the panels for the landing legs.

Thinking of how the rocket section fits to the main body, I’m going to get rid of the 2 lugs that stick out, so I can glue the body together and get it all sorted and painted. Then I can just but the rocket section too it at the end.
