I finally got my stargate built. Creating a stargate that would work in 1:18 scale has been an obsession for a while now. When I saw a "fully wired and masterfully painted" stargate listed on ebay I thought I had won the jackpot. I purchased it off of the Bay a little over a year ago and almost cried when I openned the box. It is a poorly lined up cast of a Diamond selct gate that is apparently translucent and separated with plywood. The guy used enamels to make it pretty much solid greasy looking black, so the paint was stinky and tacky, and it still was a year later. The one thing it had going for it was the working lights. Daremo's most recent Kumite contest for Slayer was just the kick in the ass I needed to get it out and get it done. So I attacked it with paint thinner to get the sticky enamel off and worke don repainting it. Once I got it a little bit more presentable I built the raised dias and table area to sit it on. The dias and table are all made of plywood, the sand is decorative flower gravel. I built the generator from a very small scale wargames hospital building and a halo pack reduction. The DHD is a Clone Wars holo projection table with a jasper cabashon on top, the computer console came from an ugnaught figure. The runestone is again a wargames piece, and the snake helmet is one of my SG1 reductions. This might possibly be my favorite thing I have done. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.
