Blakes 7 "walkman" prop

Oh yes. Never noticed they were different. I wonder why? It makes no sense to remodel the prop for such a minor scene. How odd.

Perhaps Avon had a play with it and tweaked the design?!

Ha! He did that first, then in his spare time created the detector shield!

The body reminds me of an old magnetic tape demagnitizer extended on the bottom.

 

[KevinD]

Yes, I see what you mean. It could've been.

So I got it printed! I think it looks good. Just need to paint it now - As I said I am a complete novice in model making, so if anyone can give me any hints on which paint to use etc?

I'd use spray primer first, acrylic car spray would do it. Since it is a pale coloured prop, I'd go with white primer. After that, a top coat of some suitable colour (again car spraywould do). You might want to spray lacquer on top of that. Striping tape would be handy for the bands on it.

Thank you.
