So this guy is the prototype.I used this E6000 glue in a big glop to hold the figure onto the base.Each base got sanded with P220 sandpaper.Then a little touch up around the edges with P400 paper which is a finer grit.Crickets ready to become Selenites. Their extensive conversion consisted of trimming their behinds so they will stand flat. It takes about a second.Sanding the base.The base is done. Looks good enough to eat.

Mass Production
This blue thing is a bit of sprue from some Eagle Games figures.I always figured those figure sprues would be useful, that is the little circle / disc thingy would be.Selenite with all the stuff needed to make more. A bit of solid plastic rod shown as a while line.Airfix 1/72nd scale WWII USAAF MP with an Airfix WWI British Infantry head conversion to a US Army MP 1917 to 1945, standing next to a Selenite. I gathered up all the yellow ones, and trimmed up a bunch of those little Eagle Games sprue discs.This should be enough Selenites but since they are easy to make, who knows?
