Here are the pics and description of my Proteus build: I modified the Moebius Models 1/32 scale “Fantastic Voyage” Proteus kit with Jimmy Flintstone figures and Voodoo FX lighting. I added scratchbuilt paneling, piping, and the winch bar (used later in the movie by Dr. Michaels to knock out the captain). In the rear laboratory, a faucet, stool, desk lamp and magnifier were also added along with storage graphics. I hid the 9-volt battery for the lights in the airlock’s bottom hatch and tucked the on/off switch inside the engine intake. I cut open a pedestal stand to make a capillary diorama, with cell graphics designed on CorelDraw, then covered with a carefully bent cracked ice ceiling light panel to give the cell walls texture.
