STINGRAY - The Model.

Hi...I thought to show you some interesting photos regarding the model of STINGRAY.

Reg Hill inspecting the model of STINGRAY that he had designed.
Gerry Anderson looking through some 35mm Film - Sylvia Anderson looking on.

A 3ft model of STINGRAY which I hope to own sometime during 2022.

I hope to do some more 75mm FEMO sculpted figures tomorrow.
I will start with the devious 'Gadus' and look at other bad guys too.

Well that is my news for today.
Stay safe and well Friends. Regards. KEV.

  1. A beautiful ship in all forms Kev! Good luck with your bad guys, they always seem to be more fun to work on than the good guys!

      Certainly glad you like the look of the STINGRAY models. I've finished sculpting and painting 'Gadus' to-day...will work on other figures in the next week or so. So far I've sculpted ten figures for STINGRAY - well pleased with the results. Cheers. KEV.

      Well pleased you like the color scheme of the STINGRAY - certainly a well thought out paint job - especially for 1963. Yes- great to see the older photos from 1963-64 ...there is a good lot of photos from the era- very interesting to see the actual people behind the making of STINGRAY the TV series. Regards. KEV.

      Well hope my luck holds to eventually own a 3ft model of STINGRAY - yes, that would be something to have a photo of myself holding the STINGRAY model. I'll need to be patient as Terry hasn't given me any month or time that he will have the model of STINGRAY built for me...fingers crossed that it won't be to far down the track. Cheers. KEV.

      Yes- STINGRAY is an interesting topic for a Hobby- I'm enjoying it greatly. Hope you are well there in Seattle. Autumn here is about fairly warm days (28Deg C) and cool nights- trees are just starting to change leaf color. Best Wishes. KEV.
