Apollo-Soyuz Test Program
Hi, guys.
So, this is the Apollos C/SM and the docking module from the ASTP rendes-vous. This is a total redraw from the original Czechoslovak "ABC" ASTP model. I want to use John's Soyuz from the Salyut 6 for this, but as always - heavily redesigned. Will show it later.

Looking forward to it. ASTP was always one of my favorite missions. Years ago, I interviewed Slayton and Stafford. Talk about guys with the Right Stuff....

Soooo, this is the redrawn Apollo C/SM. Only the aft needs to be corrected - both the size and the graphics.
And this is the airlock module. Yes, I know, those "side wings" should be like twice the size. Will correct it later. Now, time for the Soyuz.

And so it is here.
Soyuz 19: And all the elements of the rendes-vous: It's an hour after midnight here, so I'll just leave it for now.

OK, I redid the airlock, it sucked. The new one on the right.
This is more-less complete, though the will be RCS painted on the SM, and also I consider totally redrawing SM. Dunno yet, though. Should anyone want this set, I'll have it available n my blog Monday or Tuesday.

A good model of a historic moment in space. The airlock looks much better. Looking forward to the models release. Good job!

In 1980, as we - myself and 2 other wargame designers - Dana (SDC's Conflict magazine and Streets of Stalingrad) Lombardy and John (Squad Leader and many more) Hill - were ascending the staircase of the Soviet Housing Compound's auditorium to watch the Barbarossa and Stalingrad installments of The Unknown War documentary film series, there was a HUGE, beautiful mural of Apollo-Soyuz on the wall above.
