The Tin Dog. K-9 construction project, Part 2

The Brain of Morbius

While building K-9, I figured I would also watch/re-watch old Tom Baker era episodes of doctor who both for inspiration and to serve as a rough time reference. Many of the episodes I had not see since the 80s and quite a few I simply didn't remember.

The Brain of Morbius is interesting because the planet in which the episodes take place was again re-visited in the recent mini-episode, "Night of the Doctor" starring Paul McGann. For some reason I loved the voice modulation of Morbius as a brain in a tank.

By the time I had finished the story, much of the pieces for the sides had been cut and I could go off and start gluing things.

The Tin Dog. K-9 construction project.

I don't remember when the idea first came to me, but shortly before Christmas 2013 decided to build a replica K-9 from Doctor Who.

Finish Line!

New shuttle decals!

 With the home made decal sheet completed, it was time to apply my handy-work.

Some basic aileron and flap details finishes off the wings.

I had to resist a strong urge to add many more details as this is a desktop model and unless I wanted
to spend a lot of time on the shuttle (I didn't) I thought it would look too detailed compared to the shuttle.
