Model Of The Month: New Horizons Atlas V

[Dyna-Soar]

This my beta build of a forthcoming kit from Retired For Now (I thought the Zealot folks might want to see it that aren't at papermodelers)

Anyway

It's also designed to fly on a cluster of 2 18mm model rocket engines.

Looks awesome! I would like to see a modification of this for the X-37B launched by the United States Air Force as the US second reusable space vehicle, and also since I am serving with the USAF. It would be a great model for my room.

 

[Dyna-Soar]

He's working on a version of that, too.

AtlasV and Payloads

The Atlas V in 1:96 is up at ECardmodels - the X-37B is there as a separate 1:48 model but it can be built at 1:96 to make a complete launch stack. There's also another X-37 version at Lower Hudson Valley (jleslie48.com) that could be scaled down to fit.



There's a few other compatible payloads as well (get out 'yer tweezers).











Either slightly modified from larger versions or (slightly) simplified versions for this scale.

Bought these a couple weeks ago..Hooking up the new printer tomorrow, then we'll blow these up to 1/48 and get busy!!! Great models yogi and dyna-soar!

Ohio - 1:48 is pretty huge. Erik T. Groen said he's working on a very detailed AtlasV, might keep an eye out for that for a big build.

Anybody know where there is a detailed Delta IV model? Just thought this might be the best place to ask.

 

[Bhelliom]

The only D-IV models I've seen so far are at the LHVCC site, but I'm assuming you've already seen those.

Yes, I have although I would like o see something with a bit more detail and a bit larger scale. I am an A1C in the United States Air Force and I would love to have the Air Force's rockets here in my dormitory at Edwards AFB, the birthplace of America's Space Program. Even though this isn't the right spot, since I work on F-16s I would also like to find a paper model of the F-16 and F-35 if there are any available.

Atlas V 400 & 500

I've been waiting for someone to design an Atlas V model for some time. Thank you for the hard work! I purchased the model from ecardmodels. I love the detailing on the payloads, including the New Horizons spacecraft.

Take care, Kevin

My dad worked for North American and later Rocketdyne from the Redstone to the shuttle.. These are awsome models and yours is exceptional.......Great work!

I have been scouring the web for patterns (That's how I found these forums) and I have seen the f-16 models but I couldn't tell you where

It was pretty late last night but I did see them!

What is really cool about 1/48 - 1/50th scale is that it is the perfect model scale for the so-called "Heroic" 28mm miniatures. Reaper miniatures even makes an astronaut miniature.
