1:16 Space Shuttle flight deck
- Thread starter Tonino
- Start date
Guys, easy. No hard feelings :-D
explenation: this model is SO amazing that i only with british poker face stated, that it has to be some kind of fake. Since I thought it was SO obvious, I didn't use the smile. Have you ever heard about irony or it is just the Czech humor specification? Do you really think that someone can consider this topic as a fake? Even someone who posted several very positive reactions? Really?
Tonino, your model is absolutely amazing, you did a great neverseen job.
The Others: Don't Be So Stiff. It is REALLY necessary to write me e-mails and talk about kicking me off the forum? :-D Like really? This is so overreacted. Even if I was this stupid and serious about my post, it is really necessary to kick me off? I was not aggressive, I didn't use hard language, I didn't make fun of religion, kids abusing or flatearthners and still you have the urgent need to talk about my note just because you "didn't get it“ ?
Well Administrators "You Gotta Do, What You Gotta Do"
Last note: Look at my thread, it is somewhere here. You can compare the flight deck of my shuttle. It is much more detailed than tonino's. It is a great shame that i didn't make the glasses transparent (wink)
Peace

I think a smiley face, maybe at the end of a nunch of ..........dots, would have conveyed you tongue in cheek humor. I want you to know that if anyone insulted your work, I would just as hard on them. Thank you for your prompt response, explanation. Just a misunderstanding and those are easy to fix. thumbsup

It's hard keeping a leep playing field. It took a long time to get this forum to this point. You don't post that often, so without having much reference, I pounce. Remember that the written word takes much to convey the sentiment.

Dear experts, it's a pleasure to meet you. I like making paper models very much. I saw this NASA space capsule on the Internet and decided to start.I want to be as fine as possible but I haven't been able to find the dimensions of the parts inside the cabin.When I saw your work, it was exactly what I imagined it to be! I really want to worship you as a teacher!IIt's hard keeping a leep playing field. It took a long time to get this forum to this point.

Hello My friends!
It's been a very long time since my last visit here. I see I've lost several notifications about contacts in this thread (and some PMs too)...
I'm very sorry. It's not my usual behavior to ignore requests or questions but last two winters, especially last months, were a real nightmare for me.
I'm very sorry for my long absence.
As some of you maybe know, I work in the only Clinical Lab that is in the only Hospital of the Republic of San Marino. As you can imagine this winter is going to be the worst I ever had in my professional life.... No holidays, no weekends, only swabs, swabs, swabs, swabs... hundreds, thousands of swabs every day... And a lots of colleagues at home with covid...
I didn't put my hands on a model for a lot of time... I don't even remember how long... At night when I succeed returning home I've just the force to climb my bed and search for some rest...
Now, finally, I start to see the light at the end of the tunnel, positives are slowly decreasing and the recovered are more and more every day.
I'm start to feel again the desire to build something... it's a good feeling.
I think I'm gonna post something new soon.
Happy to be here again!

We are happy to have you here, Tonino!
Great to know that you are doing well. I fully understand what you were going through and I really hope that the situation will not get worse again in the near future. You are fighting at the front line, my major respect goes to you and your colleagues.
Many great threads have been created since your last visit. Some of the most extraordinary ones are these
but there are many, many more which might keep you busy for weeks.
Take care and have fun and enjoy!

1/12 Apollo Command Module
I've been looking at this model for a long time. My question is, did anyone build or buy it? Since the model is not cheap, before buying I would like to read the instructions to understand how complex this model is. Maybe someone has met the construction of this model on the net? Maybe there...

I can't imagine what you have been going through. It really good to hear from you and know you are O.K.
Thanks Marcell! Very good suggestions! Looking at those threads my modeling fever is growing again.
The Apollo CM is in my "todo" list since the day I have completed the UHU02's LM. You can imagine how I feel looking at those panels!!!
Well... I feel like I was away for a long trip and now I am back home.
Thanks to all of you for your nice words.
Now I have to complete my FIAT 500 thread (can't wait to read your impressions) and then back to work. I have a little idea for a little project that is soleciting my curiosity
News soon...
I think you can give it a try. Im not sure what scale it is and maybe you have to rescale and redesign some parts to fit in your model.
Hi Wedge, excuse me for my very late answer... you all know me by now... "fast" is not my favourite word.
Coming to your question: My shuttle scale is about 1:16 so it's far more detailed than necessary for your purposes but, re-scaling the file and leaving out some of the finest details, I think you can obtain a good cockpit in any scale.
Regarding the availability of my files... my original intention was to publish the model once completed (with the exterior walls, tiles etc.) but the whole shuttle project is now in stand by (I'm waiting for inspiration about how to finish this thing) so I decided to share anyway the files in the state they are now (for anyone, like you, searching a complement to be added to an existing shuttle model). I know I already said this before (several times) but, you know, I'm a perfectionist, I cannot publish anything without some kind of instruction sheet (at least a basic one) and I definitely have to put some kind of numeration on the many parts I have drawn. This is what I'm doing just now and I promise you that you will see something in the files section in the next weeks... You can come here to punch me if I don't keep my word...
