Hello everybody,
now, of course, the question araises, how one could preferably scratch this heat shield, has anyone from the round possibly a useful tip?
Here also still an original photo, whereby these foam insulation under the rings in the early missions did not exist then.

At first I thought of a suitable ring that one would have to halve, but so far I could not find anything like that.
Or I could try to model such a half ring, e.g. by using
Epoxie Sculpt on a circular ring from Sheet.
The easiest way would be for sure if I could motivate
Michael Key to model such heat shields in
1/144 for 3D printing, similar as my friend
Bill (niart17) made it in
1/72, although I do not necessarily want to overwhelm him with further extra wishes.
So, what else are there for suggestions or ideas?
