OK, I checked out Derek's SG PA last night, not a lot of room there, but

you should be able to do some OK dust or tile patterns (might want to
draw 
on the tiles though as someone suggested). Derek has actually stuck the
PA 
onto slotter bases to give him some more room to work with (and it makes

the figure more stable on the table). Just a little bit of putty up the 
sides and you can't see the join/base bump at all.

Yep, though depending on the glue you may want to water it down a
little.

 >(small voice) I'll go back to starships now...  <g>

I wouldn't worry too much, most people don't get as carried away as I do
;)

Have fun they sound great.
