This is, sorry, was the original dio base, I had issues with the scenic water setting, it sat for ages so I added a X-wing.

When I resurrected the J2 I went back to re-do the base, scrape off the water and then build up with resin with colour swirls...I doubt I can re-work the base.

How did you do that base Si it looks great.

Sorry Barry, I totally forgot about this question. I'm a numpty...I know.ops:


The base is made from polystyrene, shaped. It is painted with acrylics and then highlighted and dry brushed. The lava effect is done by cutting a slither off a plastic bottle then I applied some two-part epoxy, once dried I applied Tamiya clear red/orange then smoke pigment to get that cooled look. The hissing water is just some salt encased in two-part epoxy again with the lava stuck into it.


The water part is just sealant and rubbish sprinkled on. I also used some scenic water and that didn't sit well and caused issues by not going off.

Nope, Robbie the robot is from Forbidden Planet. The Lost In Space One is Robot B-9.


This is the original B-9 I made...really small.
