Mini Space Shuttle

[Tars]

Hi! Usually I'm mostly into Sci-Fi models, but since I really like the Space Shuttle and couldn't find my finished model of it, I decided to build another one fitting my Dropship Series. I think it is some kind of dropship after all ;) So here we go, this is the Columbia model from Delta 7 Studios (which is unfortunately no longer available there) scaled to 1/430! That makes a wingspan of 5.5cm. I'm pretty pleased with the result!

Wow. Good job. I thought a 1/96th-scale shuttle was too small....

Very nice! Could you take a picture of the Space Shuttle next to the dropship for scale comparison?

That's a great little shuttle! The model is actually available. The artist at Delta 7 made a deal with Chip at Fiddlersgreen to sell it there. Here's the link

Ah of course, I wanted to do that anyway. Here you go! It's two Pelicans, a Republic Gunship, the Aliens dropship and the space shuttle. I am beginning to think a Millennium Falcon would go along nicely with these :D

I'm sorry, but the scale relationship is way off there!
don't you think?
...the woodgrain in that board should be much smaller compared to the Space Shuttle at that scale.

Absolutely outstanding job. Great skill (and eyesight!).

Awesome tiny!

Thank you! :)
@airdave: that's because the board is in 1/1 scale, I guess I forgot to mention that! :D

That is seriously sweet!

Nice work!
