    This is just a prototype. I got the idea from a guy on Youtube, but I kicked it up a notch (or two). I can already see how I'm going to improve future versions, including more and varied stickers.

    That's pretty coool. Is it modular, like being able to attach to similar bases?

    I've only made the one, but I think they would sit together almost perfectly flush.

    I saw the u tube video of this idea, I think it was a gundam base, excellent idea and I've been meaning to try it. This is a great adaptation.

    Is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking......orange and purple spray cans..... the Ark and the nemesis.
