The winged Valkyries are Preiser Figures I painted to have skimpy outfits and knee high boots.
The non-winged Valkyries and college boys are from the Preiser Adam and Eve Kit, where one assembles a torso, head, arms and legs together to make the body and them paints as needed. I chose to paint the Valkyries in the skimpy theme, but to paint the college boys in their undies. The one exception to this is the couple in the Cemetery; they are Woodland Scenics figures that were only modified by having her outfit painted all black.
The NHMIB's are mostly Preiser Businessman figures painted to be wearing black suits, sunglasses, and a couple of them now holding memory flashy thingy's (made from brass rod).
The NHMIB carrying the towel, near the crop circle truck, and the one carrying the briefcase (he is the one in the blue shirt) are Woodland Scenics figures painted to be wearing Black Suits.
There is also a pair of die cast metal NHMIB's, one near Vixen-1, one in the Cemetery. They were re-painted and now carry Brass Rod Memory Flashy Thingies and are now wearing sunglasses.
Where needed, the figures were hand painted (sunglasses, suits, skimpy outfits etc).
The Crop Circle Technicians are Preiser Haz Mat figures, SOB (why tinker with a good thing). The Grass Seed Hose is a piece of Kite String waxed with chap stick.
The cattle are Preiser figures SOB.
The Unicorns (standing on the Transmogrifying Pads- I had to figure out a way to keep the horses standing so,
presto, the base they came on is a transmogrifying pad) are Atlas Horse figure with a Brass Rod Horn.
The Crown Victoria with the Valkyries sitting on the hood started life as a New Mexico State Trooper Car from Busch, which I disassembled, painted black, and reassembled.
The NH State Police Caprice is SOB Busch car.
The Emergency Services Truck is a Boley Truck that was also disassembled, painted black, and reassembled.
The grass seed truck is also a Boley Truck, with only modification being the kite string hose being glued to an outflow pipe.
The Vixen-1 ship is an Estes Lucky Seven rocketship model built SOB (except that this one will never fly).
This was spray painted and detailed using detail tape.
Valkyrie-1 is a scratch built ship using the main body tube and nose cone (and peel and stick decals) from the Canadian Arrow Estes rocket kit. The wings, spine, and lower body section are bass/balsa wood parts.
The tail cone is from Estes, and the wing/vertical stabilizer control surfaces are from the RC world of hobbying.
The landing gear are scratch built using square styrene sections, sidewalk tile pieces for landing pads, and metal pieces used to make the shock absorber struts. The Valkyrie-1 is 24 inches long, 13 inches wide, and stands about 11 inches tall from bottom of lander pad to top of tail fin. This will also never have flight potential.
This ship, and landing gear, was spray painted and like the Vixen-1, was overcoated with matte acrylic spray.
The pasture's stone wall is handmade using pea stones (from the flower arranging area of the craft store).
The burnt grass/crop circle areas are black acrylic paint.
In all, there are:
- 4 Crop Circle technicians
- 1 Grim Reaper
- 1 Dorothy and Toto
- 6 Winged Valkyries
- 7 Non-Winged Valkyries
- 7 College boys
- 10 NHMIB's
