ASTP
« on: 07/05/2015 10:15 pm »
Just in time for the 40th anniversary and something I've contemplated for years.

Used the Dragon 1/48 CSM (extremely heavily modified) and scratchbuilt the Docking Module and Soyuz.

These are just photos of the model on the stand, but I'll shortly be taking more realistic photos.

... That Soyuz is scratch-built? Holy crap. That's really amazing.

You even got the big paint bubble on the side of the SPS engine bell -- very well done.

LOL, that looks way better than some films I've seen. First class work there!
