DOCTOR WHO - The SONTARAN.

 Hi....Thought to show you my display of SONTARAN soldiers. I prefer these ones to the later blue uniformed types. With the Sontaran Spheres - I wasn't about to pay $400 for genuine sphere ships so I purchased some $3.50 Toy Rubber Balls and made cardboard circular bases for them and sprayed them with silver paint. They look the part. I do like my Sontaran.


Best Wishes. KEV.

  1. Hi Kev,
    I like your home-made Sontaran spheres, they have a nicely futuristic texture to that tiling pattern. Definitely not worth spending silly money on licensed models when you can produce something like this.

  2. The Sontaran spheres look great. If you had not said they were home-made I would have assumed they were purchased.

    1. I'm pleasantly surprised you thought the Sontaran Spheres were commercial items- I'm glad I decided to make them - certainly they go well with the Sontaran figures.

  6. I don't remember the Sontaran's (I don't think I ever got over that first episode with the Daleks in 1963) but these look good!

    1. Hi IAN- Thanks- glad you like the Sontaran and their Spheres. I missed out on the early 1st and 2nd Doctor WHO shows as we didn't have a TV until much later...catching up now- and can enjoy the 60th Anniversary. Cheers. KEV.
