Hi:D
To celebrate the forthcoming 40th Anniversary of Apollo 11.
I decided to add a twist on the Apollo 11 mission patch by making a 3D version ;)
The Bald Eagle is taken from Canon's website,reduced in scale by 50% and I had to add a lower beak as it does not have one.
The Olive branch is my own design drawn with Adobe Illustrator.
I made the Moonscape from paper-mache using Ton Noteboom's plans for his Lunar Surveyor.
Unfortunately UK newspapers contain a lot of colour photo's so I had to go over the moonscape with a grey car primer to hide the flecks of colour dotted all over:mad:.
I love the Apollo11 LM plaque so I decided to include that aswell.
It is printed on to a brushed aluminium inkjet paper.
The base and walls are made from black 5mm foamboard.
