I have also a version at 1/96 but it's very very ugly.


I love the Gemini Project, and I think that it was a remarkable story of success, birth to explore "terra incognita" and to check, to perfect and tune all things we need to go to the Moon and conquer the space.

But my top is always the Apollo Project, and i cannot wait the release of Ken's model, maybe at a smaller scale ...

I hope you enjoyed my build.
Best, Nando

How did you get the 1/72nd capsule so black compared to the larger scales. diffrent paper? Oh, Very nice work, I have one in the ever growing build pile.

IBQ, as Nando points out in the quote you copied, the 1/72 version is made of plastic. It's a word some of us paper modelers appear not to be able to pronounce, I guess... (-;
I guess the model is probably made a long time ago and in those old plastic space kits the colour advisory, like the detailing, often is quite bad.

I guess I couldn't read between the letters

Thanks for pointing that out.
