Out of pure interest for this build, does everything have to be airfix, because i have some spare bits of warhammer which i could use which would work really well.

Not everything, no, but the end result must be mostly Airfix.

Looking at various pics of the LM, the foil on the legs appears to be a different ( more coppery ) colour than that on the descent stage itself

Hi Mart why not introduce yourself here  :wink:

Ayup Sarge...

That's a free 'Wiki' Image in Hi-Res...

Can't be the Apollo 5 LEM, though ... that one (LM-1) perished when re-entering earth's atmosphere.

Ayup Bernd...

When i check the linky in 'Edit' mode, it comes up Apollo 5 LM ... It's been a while since i posted the picture...

Yep ... some while! I suspect it may be Apollo 15's "Falcon", just from the way it is sitting on the surface (as in "not very upright").

@ Sgt.Squarehead:

Those "crazy" shadows would be normal for moon pics, which lead a lot of people to assume that the whole thing was faked (official Chinese statement to that effect was even issued). Google "moon hoax" and go really crazy ...

On the moon I think.  :wink:

Beside that I'm lucky enough to have a roll of industrial Mylar tape!
It's transparent orange-yellow so if you place it over metal foil you can't tell the difference from the one you see on the LEM.

Ayup Bernd...

Looking over at NASAs site, I think it IS Apollo 15 and not 5...

There you go, solved !

Including me!  :idea:

Does that count for all the landings, or just the first?

The lot!  :wink:

TBH, I'm not sure this is the right place, or indeed the right forum for this particular discussion.  :roll:

For what it's worth, all the best
