Martians on a Stick!I sprayed the Martians with Gray Filler/Primer.  Next I sprayed them with Tamiya Light Green.  I used Vallejo Flat Red Paint and Tooth Picks to paint the Eyes.  Then I brushed on a Black Wash. After they dried I sprayed them with Dullcote.  More Coming...

We Have Lights!I finally figured out how to do the Lights! There will be Seven Color Changing Lights and 2 Bright White Lights in the Top of the Saucer, there is One Color Changing Light for the Interior and there are Two Green Death Ray Lights in the Underside. Underside and Interior Photos coming later... I started by wiring the Lights and then I glued them to plastic brackets I made from plastic.  Next I glued all of the Lights in place and added a 9 Volt Battery & Switch. I grouped the Positive Wires together an soldered them. Did the same with the Negative Wires. Then I slipped some Diffraction Film between the Lights and the Windows and taped it in place.  Light Test!  More Coming...

Death Ray Test!I cut about an inch from the bottom of the Death Ray, so that the Saucer would sit lower.  Then I carved four Slots for the Landing Gear to fit into.  The Test!  More Coming...
