The hobby industry like so many other retailers is going through a profound change. Small retail establishments are threatened by the large internet web sites....
Hi- My 1/12 and 1/48 Mercury decals arrived yesterday - quick comparison with kit decals is that Rick's replacements/backups are sharper (check out the stars...
Hello again, Has anyone actually seen photographs that clearly indicate that the blue, circular "Grand Central Rocket Co." logo was used on MR-3 (Shepard) or...
Hi Rich, I'm into Sci-Fi also (as well as the 'real' stuff!). Try: www.starshipmodeler.com www.culttvman.com www.starshipbuilder.com There are others, but...
Gordon, Nice work. Another step in what's going to be a very nice build of the Atomic City kit. I'd love to have an article on your build in the Mercury...
David Weeks sent me some pictures a while back showing the GC logos on both the escape motor and at least one of the escape motor nozzles on MA-6. Check out...
Excellent - Thanks a lot. It seems clear that logos were not a problem for NASA. If anyone has seen a photo to indicate they were on the escape rockets of MR3,...
... Rick, By all means go ahead and use whatever photos you'd like. Also, I'm quite willing to write a description of the build. It's my first attempt at a...
And if anyone has any such information on ANY of the Mercury spacecraft, and not just on the escape tower markings, please let ME know, or even better...
I looked at David's prints of the kit capsule and no where is there a showing of placement of Logos, stenciling etc. that was mentioned earlier, I thought, to...
I keep hearing about these corrigated papers from "Art supply stores" and can never find the blasted stuff. Can you give me a brand name on all three? ... are ...
I assume you are talking about David Week's 1:12 drawing set, which more properly should be viewed as one of the main references used for the Atomic City kit...
If folks send me a #10 Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope, I'll print up some additional nozzle stencils. They're pretty small and I can knock them off on the...
<I used Tomas's New Ware 1:48 Mercury decals for my 1:48 model, but I did it in on-orbit configuration, and I can't find the left-overs from the sheet, so I...

Rick S, Where did you find a picture with readable text for the nozzle stencils? And while you're at it. The stencil for the main escape motor is really...
If you can give me specific batch and motor assembly numbers, brudder, I'll print them for you! But! If you send me any old gobbledegook numbers and I find out...
I believe Rick is also responsible for designing and getting the 1/12th kit decals out. Those 1/48th are very cool, aren't they? Now I wanna see Rick do...
Both sets, the original and the replacement, yep. As for the AMT MIS set - don't make me come over there... Loved the rabbi and the IRS joke, BTW. My wife...
Oy! BTW- a bit OT but for those Californians and others that can see launches from here we have (currently) 3 scheduled- a MMIII, a Delta II and a Pegasus...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1194&item=5958974401&rd=1 I bid on it but gave up once it crossed 50 bucks. I had heard the Aoshima LM ...
I have visited this site (http://www.denhaven2.homeip.net/wiki/index.php) several times using Internet Explorer on my wife's PC, but every time I try to access...
I have this kit - haven't built it yet. Haven't looked at it in a while, so I'm going on memory. It's clearly more of an artist's rendering than a spec'ed out...
