    Contraption #1: Space Age

    So, I liked to have props and things when I photo my customs, but I didn't really have anything for sci-fi (I have a lot of gravestones, gargoyles, statues and whatever). Inspired by Dida displays, Laser mego's cool stuff, and a few issues of AMAZING FIGURE MODELER. I built this "background computer prop." (Its even in mego scale)



    It's actually made out of wood. I think it came out okay. I imagined a plastic model, built it out of wood, plastic and a piece from a Barbie jeep and expected it to look like a plastic model. Here's the view screen...



    It has a radioactive symbol, an exposion hazard warning, a laser warning and the Atari logo. I don't know what the thing does, but I don't think you want to stand too close when it does it. I mean, unless you have technical assistance.



    I have another contraption coming and I think it totally blows this one away.

    Thanks for looking.
