Wondering

Christmas is when I,ll be posting that one.About 56 1/4 high and 22 1/2 at the base.Same deal as the Mercury basic parts and fill in the details as we go along.I figure it would be a year long project on and off.I figure I would do the Mercury ,Gemini and Apollo in 1/4 scale then I would be done on large scale spacecraft.I too have a few awaiting I found a really cool light cycle I want to convert to a paper model.

I was wondering if there was going to be an 1/4 scale Apollo CM/SM-LM?
I hope you follow up with a 1/4 scale Shuttle.:mrgreen:

I think you could get a fortune for this model, it is incredible.

A 1/4 shuttle!!!!! WHOA, I'd have to build that in the back yard, I think my wife would have me committed if I started on something like that.

PaperAir has talked about designing a 1/4 Gemini next and posting files around December and moving on to a 1/4 Apollo cm.

1/4 Scale

You are bringing back lots of memories!......When I was a kid my dad had several models that he had built mostly aviation but also Space program stuff, and lived, ate and breathed Moon program!...


Good Stuff!!!!
