Sputnik-1 scale model

Photo shoot of scratch build model.

A project that has been on my “to do” list for a while.

It is roughly 1/4th scale, but with the antennas attached it still takes up a large volume.

The sensor bays and antenna attachments I have 3D modeled for 3D printing. The rest of the model is scratch build.

There is a new model kit available, check this post Sputnik-1 model kit 1:6
