Part by part, the machine becomes complete...

As night fell over the Forum the unearthly sound of hammering could be heard from the pit, with occasional bursts of green smoke and light, as the Martians worked tirelessly to build their engines of war...

... that is, until the blaring sound of a horn echoed over the field and the Martians all halted in their tasks and proceeded to feed on the strange beings they'd brought with them from home, and converse amoungst themselves while drinking stange heated liquids...

I have started work on the lower section of the side legs, not very exciting pictures I'm afraid

Not much to offer today, too knackered :(

This is the Leg joint shield, it has been pointed out to me that with the hole in the side it looks like a fixed pivot joint, it is not, the hole is just a vent for the green smoke as shown in the photo, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it 8-[

I suppose I should tell you how I made this.

First I rolled a small quantity of Milliput into an egg shaped ball (as showen by the dotted line) and then cut and filed away the excess material and hollowed it out using dental burrs.

You could just say that it's some other non-pivot sort of joint, that just looks like a pivot. Mine follows the 1953 "Magnetic Everything" motif. The little Gold rings arround the "Knee" joints are charged with current, causing them to attract/repell each other and move the leg arround.

Or stick with Gas-Vent, whatever suits you. (Think you're putting a bit too much thought into this, it's just a knee)

They came, their suits are no longer white. They are going to need Bold Ultra White Washing powder to shift all that blood. Of cousre they'll have to scoop their brains back into their craniums before they put the wash on. :a028:

This is not one of the Martians, it's the underside of the Hood.
I have drilled small holes for the tentacles. I have also been working on the other upper side leg section adding the fine detail.

I have started work on the feet today, once again I need only make one and then duplicate it, the toes will be separate some of them will be moulded to the base the model stands on and I want one of the feet to be in the air as though stepping, so the toes will be closed up like in this picture.
