Model Gallery

Home/Top of the Page  

These are some of my creations 

This diorama took me over three years to collect, paint and then construct. It is 3'Lx1'Hx1.5'H. It contains three predators, 6 aliens and 21 alien eggs. If you push the skull in the middle of the base a predator roars. (recorder located underneath the base)..
