Question Gemini with interior

have i seen a big Gemini with interior (like Carl's Apollo)
or was i just dreaming of it?
does one exist?
i know D7's Gemini 4 is half cockpit but i would like do one with both doors open
if i take D7's and flip the cockpit parts, would it reflect a true cockpit then?

I have seen someone (can't remember who now) flip the parts for the interior of the Delta 7 Gemini and build the other side of the cabin, so I am guessing that it works in practice. Not sure what kind of adjustments need to be made for fit, though.

EDIT: Second picture in the gallery: http://www.delta7studios.com/gallery.htm. Looks like someone did manage it.
I'm also wondering how he did the back end. There's parts in there I've never seen on pics of this model before...

D7S provides a full interior, they just don't provide a starboard hatch. But yes, if your printer has a "reverse print" function, you can just reverse the pieces for the port hatch and build it with both hatches open. I did it for my "Gemini Recovery" scene. (The flotation collar and nose detail, as well as some other bits, were scratchbuilt, though.)

Okay, it was dhanners's model I had seen. I distinctly remembered both hatches being open, but I could not remember where I had seen it.
Let us know how it goes 2Kamser -- I still haven't purchased the CD, although I know it will be well worth it to do so.
