1/1000 Scale Explorer One Remastered

Ok folks due to some issues that have happened over time. And due to some "guidelines" from ShapeWays. I sat down and went over this model with a friend, to do some repairs to the details and really attempt to make this the best model this could be. And I think it turned out nicely. 

The pod bay doors are now down in the command module by 1mm, with raised door details that are correct. The command module now has bars showing the windows, so now they can be detailed better. The side entry hatch is now also down in the command module, instead of sitting on the surface. All these new details go along with the corrections I did to the AE-35 Antenna complex that everyone wanted. And the smoothed out command module that I did.

Sadly however one side effect. ShapeWays new guidelines for escape holes on hollow models now requires that where a single escape hole is used, that it be 4mm in diameter. That means you are going to make a plug for the holes, before being able to mount it. This model is 1/1000 scale. Using the side entry hatch on the port side as a base line for scaling. I hope these new changes are what everyone wanted. 

This model has been up now unchanged since 2014, This prints fine.
