Dear modeler mates, I'm very happy to announce that after a development time of 10 years the Crawler Transporter 1/96 kit is finished and currently in production at the printing company. It consists of more than 11,000 parts printed on various types of card stock, papers and transparent foils. Most sheets are printed double sided in offset technique with 5 colors (CMYK + Cool Gray 8).
The kit comes with a complete full colored building instruction of 48 pages in English (other languages will follow as downloadable PDF). Besides a little yarn, the kit contains all needed materials. Tools and glue, however, are not included ;) The production is limited to 499 pieces worldwide, and each kit carries its own individual serial number. Foreseeable, the production will be finished by the mid of the oncoming week, and in principle is available from this day on. A few months ago, crew members of C/T #2 came across my model, and their enthusiasm finally lead to an invitation to KSC including a visit of the Crawler, the Launch Pad and the Orbiter Processing Facility. It was not easy for them to get all those required permissions especially for a foreign citizen, and I feel very honored and grateful, and of course, very proud. It's a big dream coming true for me. I'm telling you this because I will leave on 12th July 2010 to Miami, and return by the end of July from my trip to the USA. If you plan to order a kit and want it before I start my trip, please contact me ASAP at [email protected] . I then will manage that the kit will be sent to you directly from the printing company. The price of the kit is 130 EUR plus shipping costs. How to order: Please send me an email to [email protected], including your street address or where to ship the model. If you wish to have a certain kit serial number, please mention it. If the number is still available, I’m happy to send you this kit. I’m a private person, this means that I’m not sitting at the computer all of the time ;) – sometimes I’m on vacation or on emergency standby at the hospital. So please excuse when I do not react to your order instantly. However, once you receive the payment details you can be sure that I’m aware of your order and will process it as quick as possible. You will get a PayPal bill in reply; once I received the payment confirmation from Paypal, I will pass on your details to the printing company, where the kits are stored, and they will send you the kit on the next working day. Note that I cannot process orders after the 11th July until the end of July. I know that my website is totally outdated - I have a very demanding job at the hospital and so I decided to spend my free time into the model rather than into Dreamweaver. However, when I'm back from my journey, the website will be completely renewed, also the work on the LUT will start immediately, and I swear it won't take another ten years to finish it ;) I want to thank you all for your patience and your great enthusiasm for the project ! best greetings Mischa Klement aka Cyana MicroArtwork Salzburg/Austria -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Papermodels II" group.
