Wow! I remember the photo images of Gagarin in the daily press when I was a boy. I was often impressed with the uncommon silhouette of this ship. Later, when I grow up, I wondered how such a vessel could bear the blows of wind, a stormy weather and massive rainfalls, having such uncommon "chalices" elevated so high above the sea level. So this was an intriguing engineering structure for me. I am not sure if I found it exactly beautiful, but as for your model, it looks beautiful indeed and the vast numbers of the small details on the antennas is really impressive! Thanks for sharing!
