I made this kit many years ago, it was produced by a UK Model Company called Halcyon and this figure was sculpted by UK sculpter Colin Batty. I shot these pics on my old Yashica 35mm, I took my asthma inhaler and fired a couple of jets of it into the beam of my slide projector behind the model, then took a half second exposure of the model.

nice one! looks excellent, better than a lot of the film stills. good old ventolin.
That is fantastic Andrew!
ps. Trevor is making an honest woman of me on the 14th October and we are getting married. Do you by any remote chance know of anyone in the Solihull area who might be able to take some photographs? Nothing posh, no albums... just pics on a CD and I'll sort the rest.
Cool lighting, and the mist is a nice touch. Inhaler and a projector huh? I'd never have thought to try it. Way to use your ingenuity.
I can bearly make out the face of Yaphet Kotto in the mist. Nice job.
All right sweet hearts, what are you waiting for? breakfast in bed.
Another glorious day in the corps.
A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm.
Every meal a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade.
I LOVE THE CORPS!
They look really cool Andy!! very nice indeed. You really are quite inventive aren't you.
whau! At first I thought, it is a 3d computer graphic! Looks great! :)
great work dude !!
Hey Annie Congatulations !!
Regarding the Photographs,sorry I don't anybody in that area of the UK !!
No probs Andrew. As it happens, we think we found a willing photographer this morning...to be confirmed next Sunday. Fingers crossed.
Keep up the excellent work!
Hello fellow projectionist,
Theres a lot of interesting work on your blog. The sculptures are beautiful, especially the Alien. Keep it up man, for the sake of humanity!
Cheers for the feedback everyone !!
I miss my Projectors Justin :(
Really cool stuff man, thanks for posting.

working with maya, . great stuff!!
Ahhh, the work of Mr Batty. Top stuff and top sculptor!
AWESOME!
If you don't mind, I'm going to post and link!
Very nice, man!
ooooo muy coool! tricky with the inhaler
hua! nice pics really; happy experiment; on the first look, the effect in the upper bluish one has something of a 80s music-clip. The other one is either being torched by a spacemarine with flamethrower or an ship's engine =)
Cheers for all the feecback on this,doing things like using a projector and an inhaler is the kind of fun and inventivness that you just don't get with CG !!
