K2Pete Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 This is from the old "Astronaut On the Moon" kit, 1/6 scale by Revell ... I did a lot of scratch building to make this model more accurate compared to the kit ... Lots and lots of added details ... like the Camera, PLSS (Backpack), boots, hoses, LEVA helmet ... This was another satisfying build ... thanx for taking a peek! Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stikpusher Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 That is another fantabulous build! Your passion for gettin the details right and love of that era of the space program really shines through! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Deliduka Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Stunning work Pete! If I didn't know any better, I'd think that was a real astronaut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2Pete Posted January 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 Many Thanx Mark! This kit was big enough that I could use a lot of different materials to replicate some details. I used Aluminum Foil, Grocery Bag plastic, Straight Pinheads, First-Aid tape Home made decals ... and I had a ball doing it! Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stikpusher Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 Another great build Pete! I love how Cernan and the Apollo 17 mission was portrayed on “From the Earth to the Moon”. Your work captures that spirit perfectly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
