Howdy Neighbor! I live in Indiana! The company i work for is headquartered in Ohio (Lima area), so have been there several times.

One thing I'm a little confused about, there are many photos of Buran/Energia on Grasshopper, in some pics the Grasshopper is green and some it's battleship grey. I know there are two Grasshoppers, both are grey (and rust) now. The grasshoppers were originally built for the Moon Rocket, and...

Testing photo download This is the Buran/Energia, mounted on the Grasshopper transporter. It required four locomotives to move from the assembly bldg. to the launch pad.

I had that problem once, and I solved it by making sure the first pic was completely dry, then flipping the paper and reinserting it into the printer. Only works if the pics are less that half the card.

At this point I'm still downloading pics and trying to scale them to the Energia. I work 3 jobs, so this is going to take me a long time.

Thanks for your reply. I've already been to this site, and downloaded some of the best views. I'm drawing it in Autocad. This is going to be a big project, I hope I have the time and patience to finish it.

I'm currently working on Leo Cherkashyn's 1/100 Buran/Energia, and am interested in scratchbuilding the "Grasshopper", the horizontal transporter it was assembled on. Leo's got some other transporters on his site,and I'd like to display my Buran horizontally. Just...

I built Alfonso's shuttle Challenger /tank/boosters on the mobile launch platform/crawler at 144 scale. I briefly toyed with building ISS but now seeing your 144 shuttle connected to the ISS I'm sure I don't have room to display it. But I am in awe of your dedication. My model took me 4...

I'm thinking about printing the viper onto a light grey or eggshell card instead of pure white. Has anyone had any luck with this?

I saw a Mercury capsule in a museum once, and I'm still amazed that those guys were able to squeeze into that thing for months and months training for a short duration flight. Great build.

Amazing detail! Great job!

Don't know if they count as SiFi, but the original Godzilla (with Raymond Burr) and the original Frankenstein also cool.:mrgreen:

All time favorite: ST Voyager. After that, any ST except DS9, BSG (both 1978 and 2004) Space 1999, Lost in Space (series and movie), Seaquest. All the SW movies are watchable, but my favorite is Empire Strikes Back.

Do you have any problems with clear coat spray messing up the printer ink on the model? I've never tried spraying on printer ink.

Hi. New to card modelling, have been building styrene models since I was a kid. I am almost finished with my first card model, Space Shuttle Columbia by AXM Space models.Next planning the Buran with Energia rocket. I do a lot of graphic design with AutoCad, so thinking about (trying to) make...
