Addar Apollo - Soyez Resto rebuild.

[BlackSheep214]

As I had already mentioned I'm looking to restore an oldies Super Scenes Apollo - Soyez kit. Last night, I started dismantling the kit. Here's the results:



The bottle was taped with invisible tape yet it is a Snap together bottle. I probably used tape to securely hold it together instead of using tube glue. Good thinking...


Next will be looking for some replacement decals. I'll need both flags, lettering for "United States" and "CCCP"






The flags are 3/16 x 3/8 inch each, United States lettering are about 1/16 height, CCCP are 1/8 inch height.
Those are going to be a challenge to find. If anyone has spare decals in those sizes, I'll take them.


The background insert poster shouldn't be an issue for me. I can find suitable images online and print them off.

This is an interesting project to follow!

What scale would you say these are? I may be able to find some, I know a site that does decals for real space craft.

Great project. I don't think I ever saw this kit. Maybe poke around 1/16 figure decals. I'm pretty sure I saw flag should badges - may work.

Or then try to make themself, print your own decals?

Maybe 1/350 ship decals

Anyways interesting to see real space kits being built. Do you have access to a vinyl cutter to make some custom paint masks?

Looking in Scalemates, they are 1/160 scale.
