  1. Thanks No EVA handles were provided so I 3D drew and printed my own
  2. No the model can be found here https://3d.si.edu/apollo11cm?fbclid=IwAR064drKKHkGBHq6CLWp2lxGUlF0t1DS2hKk049aRKRZSd0Hh4pi69OnNQQ
  3. thanks for your input guys. I managed to figure it out in Photoshop CS. You don't have to rasterise all drawing in PS. So far so good
  4. I've been playing with this model for a while. Now I have decals I'm calling it done. Decals printed on work laser printer. Seems the toner is removed easy. I will touch up with paint and clear coat
  5. I thought PSP vanished. Will look into it too. Cheers
  6. Yeah I have Illustrator trial. Looks like a learning curve and a half. Thanks for your thoughts Cheers Peter
  7. the 1/6th uses PVC tube for the body. the 1/12th I have printed the body. Have since divided all body parts in half so may look at printing the 1/6th as well. Up scalable to 1/3. Just working on decals now as painting them stripes is a challenge.
  8. I've been slowly developing my Explorer 1 model. Seen here at 1/6 and 1/12 scales.
  9. Hey Brian. Mind if I ask what app you use for your decals? I've got Photoshop CS but find it over kill for model decals. I was looking for something less complicated.
  10. https://www.bricklink.com/ for all your needs
  11. Built mine on the weekend One mod so far. remove the extension from the thrusters to connect direct to body
  12. Does anyone have a good site for Falcon info? I'm trying to draw the block 5 and having trouble finding info for the legs and the Merlin 1D Vacuum engine.
  13. Nothing to apologize for. Many use the term for both. Just true SLA is around double the price of a DLP printer
  14. Thanks Crackerjazz. REsin printing is far better resolution than FDM. this was printer at .025mm or .25um. Playing with orientation reduces visible lines. Hopefully future prints will have none at all. Silver is just chrome in a rattle can. simulated heat on bell is alclad hot blue and brass.
  15. UPdates. Managed to get all parts printed at 1/32 Still a lot of detail for such a big reduction
  16. Update. Have redesigned to print at 1/32 scale So far successfully printed 1 thruster nozzle
  17. Thanks CO Photon is the cheapest out there. SLA costs more than DLP for what benefit?
  18. I have a friend with an FDM. Maybe I'll ask him
