Luner Rover and Astronaut
About a week ago I was looking on the net for space models because I had just did the Dragon manned spacecraft from AXM paper models. I went to the Canon site thinking I had all their models about space, but to my surprise they had added a lot of models to their space section. The one that caught my eye first was the moon rover. They had a "Lunar Roving Vehicle Simplified Version" so I printed it out and made it. I did not modify the main body but I did put skewer as axles so that the wheels turn. I also made the big antenna so it could rotate. They do not list what the scale was but I wanted to add a astronaut to it to drive and want a simplified version of that also. I had done the astronaut from the paper-replika.com site and by a ruff guess I reduced it by 50 percent. (The astronaut did not list it scale also). After making the rover I did the top torso and back pack to see if I was near the right scale. It looked good so I went on to make it withe mod to the legs so it could be sitting and its arm so it could be driving. Hope you enjoy.
I am having problems downloading photos so here is link to my photo album https://photos.app.goo.gl/txuLKid5uLxAJU1Y8 Here are links to the sites I got the models from Canon https://creativepark.canon/en/index.html paper-replika.com

That is neat. Did you notice the surface of the Moon diorama availble there?

Until recently you had to own a Cannon printer to access those. It was called "Creative Park Premium". The japanese version of the site has a lot of cool models the English version lacks: https://creativepark.canon/jp/catego...087/index.html
