...and still not accurate
...and still not accurate
But to be fair - as I said a few posts back, you have to cut the guy some slack. The model is pretty good given the information that was publicly available at the time he designed it.
And for a garage resin cast, the moulding looks quite good in those photos - pretty sharp, and free of bubbles.
Now - taking money from people and never shipping product - *that* is inexcusable...

Don't get me started (my own experience with him
) To be fair; his casts were always sharp and clean.

So, has anyone made progress in making an accurate alternative?

Yes, I did...not accurate by any means. Here's the pics of the thread (I did a search, but without succes
) Yogybear gave me one of his EVA Pod ear and allowed me to recast it to make the other one, as well as DaveG contributed by giving me his highly accurate STL file for the arms.Still a work in progress, since I've modified the upper engines (top of the window on the right/left of the model, as well as the trapeze bell at the upper top left).
Here's the new pics:

I've been working on one for the past 4 years. Not an "alternative" per se, because it's not going to be a kit or anything.

Beautiful model by the way!

Another one of those crazy model to build...a sphere is never easy to work with. Many challenges and many artistic liberties taken; I'll get through it eventually:)
