Grumman LEM cockpit

I'm modeling a simple retro styled cockpit for the Lunar Excursion Module. It's based on Gemini technology, with some allowances for Orbiter's MFDs. It's not historical or based on any actual proposal. The pilot will have the two MFD screens in the panel immediately in front of him, and some (I hope) working indicators on the middle panel (fuel, thrust, altitude, speed, ADI ball, etc). On the right side I'll simply put some switches and generic indicators, just for show.

Mercury Capsule

Here are the latest improvements to the Mercury Liberty Bell 7 capsule. Still figuring out which bolt goes into which texture, but moving along nicely. An earlier version were the window is... transparent :-)

Gemini capsule

Test of my Gemini capsule textures. As the available good resolution photos are mostly of flown capsules now in museums, the current version of my photo real textures has an old and battered look. further work will correct this.

Mercury Atlas screenshots

Some screen shots using my the current Atlas and Mercury capsule textures.
