Thanks man,
It will definately come in handy for building the real deal. I don't think I could build one without it. I couldn't imagine trying to measure all those parts and do it with pencil and paper. Even though thats how I've always done it before. I've been spoiled by the Computer,
As for the Wostoks. There are 2 upper panels and 2 lower panels per kit. The upper panels are the ones with slots at the top. There are 6 upper panels on the SS model, and 6 lower ones. So you need 3 kits for the panels, unless you cast copies like I'll be doing. The SS model also uses the round domes in the kit, these are just in front of the engines. I believe it uses a cut section of those same domes inside the rear bay. So short story long, 3 kits should do it, if you want to use original parts. I just have one, so I'll just cast any duplicate parts. Now if I can just finish this darned nose section, LOL. Cheers,Joe
