Thank You Dyna-Soar, but your Astronaut is nice too. And Yes, the NASA meatball was in the right shoulder (see the Cerna portrait)

I have some idea about more enhancement:

first of all, put the Astronaut on the moon, i'm using the Ton's instructions about the Moonscape for his Surveyor model (paper machè)

Then complete some detail on PLSS. I discovered that on the PLSS of Cernan there was some interesting detail (see the picture I found on the capcom espace, l'encyclopédie de l' espace site)



And at last to try some technique to brush some powder (not lunar, but grey pastell) on a sample leg for test. If the result will be good I'll do on the model also.

I estimated the scale at 1/12 for my camera project, so, if you want to scale down the model to fit with the Udon's LEM (1/48), you have to reduce it to one third.

I'll keep You informed.

Nando :D
