...I'm lucky enough to have the full set of Twisted Land of Oz. Here's the rest of the collection, The Wizard, Dorothy, Toto, Flying Monkeys and Munchkins. A great set, but so easily broken, I really need to create a display for this lot.

This afternoon I've been fixing, drilling and pinning the broken parts from some of my Twisted Land of Oz collection, here's The Tin Woodman, The Scarecrow and The Lion...

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

...and here they are in a little lineup.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Here they are, my most recent project. Four little lego bad dreams.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

This evening I painted the head of a forth and final lego spaceman, four little bad dreams in a row. I think I'll take some good photos of this bunch tomorrow.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

One more to add to the crew.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Started an interesting project, let's see where it goes...

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Couldn't resist making a display stand for my new #LEGO ICONS Galaxy Explorer. Made from plywood, painted in BLK 3.0

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Currently refurbishing and old 3d printer, it's working well but does need new belts. Had to start by doing a test print, the last few bits will be done by the end of the day.
What a great model from @thingiverse https://t.co/x45qH2XUd2

The Boat Droid so far.
Next job work out the pose and fix all the elbows and shoulders.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

It's been quite a while since I did anything here. So started a new project. A custom toy of the Boat Droid from the Mandalorian, lots to do but everything has to start somewhere.

My #Starwars DL-44 Blaster project continues. Found a sight with mounting online now fixed to the blaster, still loads to do but so far so good.

Here's a video of the flickering Protocol Droid eye. Next step on this is painting this part.

Continuing with the current project, combining a battery powered cupboard light and bits from a battery powered candle and got a flickering Protocol Droid eye.

@TheFleshTearer It really is, really happy to get that water pistol, looking forward to start that project

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Yet another project on the table. Deckard's pkd from Bladerunner, currently a water pistol will soon become a nice prop replica, as will the casting of a VP70 the side arm from Aliens and Leon Kennedy's pistol in Resident Evil 2.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Both eyes on the Protocol Droid head are all wired up. Set it up with a main switch and one on each eye, so happy with how its turning out.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

This has been on hold for far to long. With a few adjustments, battery powered cupboard lights become the lighting in the Protocol Droid eyes. After all this time I'm happy with the result.

C3P0 Eyes fit, time to sort the wiring, fix together & on with more details.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Well here's yet another project started. First step glue and fill, then tidy up and get ready for paint.
Always wanted a DL-44 Blaster, now I've got one.

[Jon 'The Maker of Things' 🇺🇦 @prop_maker_uk]

Gone and started yet another project... I may finish some one day.
Anyway planning out a custom Star Wars toy.
