Gemini


Roy writes: I haven't built a plastic model kit since I was a kid! It used to take me an average Saturday afternoon, and then I'd load it up with firecrackers the next day after church. This Gemini capsule took a few weeks, and I don't like the way the equipment module turned out, so I left it off till I can find some gold foil. We're not allowed to play with firecrackers here in Santa Barbara, so I'll probably wind up hanging it from my ceiling or something boring like that.

The ridges on the retro module are made out of (uncooked) angel hair pasta, glued on with Zap CA.
