Because thunderbirds wasn't made with plasticine type stuff?

I imagine you'd just use a string or some sort of stand to hold it in place

we used a fishing wire attached to a bar with some pins, overhead of the set then we could adjust the pins to adjust height and position, to simulate in the air stuff

Wow! Brilliant. Hope you get top marks for that, really quality stuff.
Do you write a 'script' or storyboard or something? or is it completely spontaneous?

that one was quite spontaneous

I did have a planned one out but I was under pressure to get it done VERY quickly so I just did whatever seemed to fit my mood/actions

originally he was going to trip over something and then pick it up and throw it away

and on this one I was going to have him just throw it away too till I saw it was so mushed into his hand that it wouldn't come off so I started flapping it about and it kinda came off a bit so I just thought ooo what if it splats all over him
