The shuttle has the wrong markings (NASA worm logo and the NASA meatball on the wing are from two different periods) and 8 cockpit windows instead of 6. For just a model it looks okay but it is incorrect if you'd consider it a realistic model. Julius absolutely has a number of brilliant models but in this case I still prefer AXM's 1/144 shuttle which is 100% accurate.
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely! Paper-Replika's models are cool, but the AXM's website has detailed space shuttles of pretty much every NASA space shuttle mission! ;o)
Delete(although not *all* their space shuttles are historical NASA-accurate either: papercraft James Bond Moonraker space shuttle ;o)
