Gemini Titan II

I built this one over the weekend along with Enterprise and the VF-1J. I was going for a "rocket park"-like setting to show off the stage seperation. It's from the Delta 7 studios Gemini collection. I think I may redo the main thrust structure, replacing it with Ton Noteboom's, because I'm not all thaty happy with the way it turned out.

Nice job! You definitely got the "park" look.
What's the scale, please? 1/96 as supplied on the disc?

I have one of D7's Gemini disc , it's a great collection. I'd like to get the Gemini Blue disc also.

1/96, I'm considering and upscaled flying version though.

Throw in a concession stand and some kids climbing on the rocket and you'll have it perfect....

Seriously, great-looking build and thanks for sharing the photos.

I really liked the stands for the rocket. It can sure be on a diorama of a space port.

Great work - piling on the idea of a diorama. Easy addition would be a scaled school bus (idea cribbed from Jon Leslie). There's a bus a www.papertoys.com .

I'm just amazed that someone can complete THREE models in a weekend!

Nice work DS, but have to agree with you about the main rocket motors - the ones you have used let what is a perfect build down - Tons's are THE best by design {piccy attached of mine}
