Aussie-Pete Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 It is Ignacio Bernacer Alpera page Silly me how could I forget this great creator of sculptors Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K2Pete Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Very Nicely done Ricardo! It looks like it's about 24cm tall ... your painting of it is excellent! And I assume you painted the visor's reflection too! WOW! The fabric on the lower wall is a nice touch too ... this is such a unique subject. To have the cosmonaut entering the suit, as a diorama, is a wonderful idea and your representation of it really does it justice! Well Done! Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K2Pete Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I just went to Space Helmet Models and see that you've scratchbuilt the spacecraft structure for the diorama ... I just assumed it was the part of the kit ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricardo Salamé Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Aussi Pete I think that It's the best source for astronauts and cosmonaut in 120mm and the king for bigger scale. Ricardo Edited June 7, 2021 by Ricardo Salamé Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricardo Salamé Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Thanks Pete! Yes I try to mimic Alan Bean work. I got my inspiration from his paints. Its a very cool subject, but Soviet era hardware information it's a little hard to find. The accuracy suffered a little. I am glad that you like it.

Ricardo Salamé Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Yes Pete, you know me. I always like to add something to the model in this case was the base. I am glad that you like this little touch Ricardo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CaptKirk Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 "The accuracy suffered a little" Ha! - Not from these eyes it didn't. Love the composition; Gives a glimpse of how incredibly difficult it must be to get into one of these things in microgravity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricardo Salamé Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 Thank Cap I am gald that you like it. I have a few question for Starfleet, can you relay them? Ricardo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CaptKirk Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 With a name like Kirk, I've been able to relay questions to Starfleet, seek out new life and new civilizations etc pretty much since school age. Never mastered making models up to this standard though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crackerjazz Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Very nice job, Ricardo! Excellent additions to the base, and amazing work on the painted visor reflections! : ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
