3D Printer - Model Satellite Construction

When you are designing a game and cannot find suitable models in the shops and cardboard counters will just not do, fear not 3D printing can come to your rescue (see below, need a satellite, know a friend with a 3D printer, ask them for a favour):

Paint it red and spy on the Americans (see below, a Sweeping Satellite counter checking out what the US are doing in South America): 

Satellite production line started (see below, there is a little patience required in teh "fiddle" of small parts slipping from my chunky fingers despite my opposed thumbs): 

Global coverage of satellite scans is increasing (see below, the typical game turn will require between three and five model counters to represent geographical areas scanned): 

For every Red model there is a reciprocal Blue (see below, the black line represents the satellite track and the circles locations to scan): 

The satellites had to fight for their space on the painting tray but were righteous and victorious in the end (see below, despite teh curing of teh super glue required): 

Ready to go to the show (see below, eight Red versus eight Blue):

All I need to add now is some yellow (China), green (Commercial) and white (NASA) satellites.
