As a complete newbie to the forum who hasn't modelled anything (until starting a figure very recently) for over ten years, I thought I had better bring an old piece of mine to the table.
It is a studio-scale saucer from the Gerry Anderson TV series 'UFO'. It was made by a one man UK manufacturer (whose name eludes me) and has a resin base, core and inner dome, vacuum formed, clear upper/lower domes and laser cut, plastic vanes and 'paddles'.
I completed it using Tamiya and Mr. Hobby acrylic spray paints, Hasegawa clear green film and chrome Bare-Metal Foil for all the reflective surfaces.
I then constructed a forest base with real, cut branches and installed a couple of green LEDs to represent the night time scenes which scared the hell out of me as a kid (especially as I lived a stone's throw from Pinewood Studios and Black Park, where all the exteriors for UFO and the Hammer Films were shot).
Below are construction shots and the finished saucer.
Hope you like it.

I remember this series well, particularly the ladies in it!,
