The Dragon build looks cool. Any idea when it is being offered, and how accurate is the detailing? Is it based on the current flight article about to be launched?

Hi,
Yes, the detailing is very accurate and it's based from NASA photos. Now I'm just waiting for more pictures to complete the inside of the trunk. Unfortunately SpaceX has not revealed photos with details of the trunk yet.
This model will be available in two scales 1/144 and 1/100 scale, including the Falcon-9 rocket in a couple of days. This is the current flight configuration to the ISS.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to it. I am, however, thinking of enlarging it to 1/48th scale. Would the files lend themselves to that or am I going to get fuzzy details?

The graphics are vector graphics so there's no problem when you enlarge them.

Oh Wow! Thanks Alfonso, for doing the Dragon capsule and vehicle!

Elon Musk is my new hero - and I am very happy you've chosen to build it.

And SpaceX will probably not release (hi-res) images of the inside of the trunk any time soon. But NASA probably will. After all, NASA will use the space station robotic arm and Dextre, to have a view inside the trunk once Dragon has been berthed to ISS.

Off to a nice start there, Marcellino! I just took a look. Nice clean lay-out, but unfortunately I can not read the sidebar. The pictures are nice, you already have some great models. Perhaps you should try and photograph your models in full daylight, to get less yellow pictures. It will improve the colours a lot, I guess.
By the way, I also have a Blogger-site with my models and other space-related stuff. (click on my signature to get there).
