Thanks!

 

Astronauts will be up next.  Leaving off the antenna array until the end--because if I put it on now I'll just break it off... still touching up to do on the CM and elsewhere, but a lot of the heavy lifting is done.  Also leaving off engine bell--easier to work with this thing without it on there right now.

 

Also found a stand from Polar Lights that I think will support all this plastic and resin.

BTW, anybody have ideas on where to get 1/32 astronaut space suit decals?  There's a site called JBOT that used to do them--but apparently the owner had a stroke in 2018 and isn't filling orders anymore.

 

I can't find anything anywhere else.

A bit more progress.  Hatch and EVA camera installed, as well as the EVA light.  Probably should have thought of a way of LEDing the light, but oh well.

Hrmmmm, I can only see the "no access" blank picture, with a grey circle with a horizontal white line through it.

Thanks.  That hatch was a real PITA to sand (the casting was a bit rough) and then paint.  the windows are that Crystal Kleer stuff--I couldn't manage with plastic that didn't look dirty or scuffed afterward.  there's an inner and outer window.

 

Next come the astronauts.
