Hi guys.

Some time ago I read on this forum that there is a project of a Cygnus cargo spacecraft with the pressurized section larger than the one currently in use.

I have done various searches but I haven't found useful information or drawings. I would be interested to make the model of this Cygnus.

There is someone that could help me. Where can I find drawings? Where can I find any information regarding this special version of the Cygnus spacecraft?

Thanks!

Hi guys.

I’m proud to present my latest modeling work to you. I made the Cygnus Enhanced on a 1/72 scale.

The Cygnus model kit is made of resin with photo-etch details. The model kit is then completed by some decals that faithfully reproduce the solar panels and other parts that will enrich the model.

Thanks to this model kit it is possible to realize three different versions; these versions are all real concepts, not sci-fi.

If someone has interested in enriching his collection, contact me via PM or the e-mail attached here, or visit my YouTube channel.

Thanks!

Hi Guys!

I’m very proud of the model kit that I have just finished, it’s the N1 rocket of the Real Space Model.

The model kit is well made and it is very beautiful. That is well made and full of details.

If I really wanted to find a flaw in this model, I could only say that the instructions are too minimalist; it would be good to make clearer instructions.
Personally, I had some problems figuring out which was the best solution to fold the photoengraves present in the model.

Hi guys.

AMK has put on the market a very interesting new subject with a space theme. This is the Dragon spacecraft cargo (version 1) reproduced in 1/72 scale. With this subject, you will be able to create one of the three possible versions.

There is youtube channel: AMK astronautic model kit, where you can see more and more very interesting videos regarding astronautic model kits.

With these photos I show you the third and last Dragons's spacecraft version (version 1), which I made. This Dragon version is not sci-fi, but it is a real project studied years ago by Space X and, unfortunately, never realized. The project envisaged the use of this Dragon spacecraft in an inhabited version in order to carry out a maintenance or repair mission of the HST.

If you are interested in this project, you are looking for this document: Space X dragon as an in-orbit Servicing Platform (March 25, 2010.

Eventualy you can go on my You Tube channel: AMK astronautic model kit.

Thanks!

Hi guys.

After over 9 years of hard work and problem-solving, I’m so proud to show the new AMK’ model to the world.
From my point of view, it is the apotheosis of my work.

I made the ESA’ Hermes mini shuttle completely in resin and I made it in 1/72 scale. The Hermes model is finely detailed and full of details. Its creation was possible thanks to my great work of researching photos, drawings and various types of information.

If anyone is interested in this subject, please contact me.
