One of the most noticeable models created by Gamla Model Makers in 2015 is a giant 1:50 scale model of ISS. The model is twice larger than our most popular 1:100 scale model, it depicts the latest 2015 configuration and includes some newest elements such as replicas of Dragon and Cygnus spacecraft and the BEAM - the inflatable habitat module.
This version was developed using the 3D model of the 1:100 scale ISS. However, due to a larger size, the majority of the elements were re-designed to increase the level of detailing and overall accuracy. The internal reinforcement system, supports and the order of assembly were also modified to compensate for increased size and weight. The images of the model give an insight on the assembly of the model and attaching magnetized elements. You can see how large this model on the images where the crew members interact with the model.
The model was delivered to the NASA Johnson Space Center and will be installed in the Visitors Center.
In 2015 NASA commissioned Gamla Model Makers to develop and produce a 1:144 scale model of the International Space Station. Smaller, about 70% size of our standard 1:100 scale ISS model, this one was suppose to become a more portable and mobile version of the ISS presentation model.
Once again we re-worked the 1:100 scale 3D model, not only scaling it down, but also modifying the elements in order to compensate for smaller size and slightly lower scale resolution. We also had to modify the model so it will be able to accept all new set of magnets, internal reinforcement elements and supports, non of which was simply proportionally smaller.
As a result we developed and produced a new model of ISS, which is smaller in size, easier to handle, yet it has preserved all the features of the 1:100 scale model. The model depicts the latest 2015 configuration, including the newest elements, such as replicas of the Dragon and Cygnus spaceships as well as the BEAM - the inflatable habitat module. The model is comfortably mounted on a smaller round (not elliptical) base with a new nameplate. New, more portable transit case was developed for this model. We see a way to modify the transit case even further, to make it even more portable, possibly luggage type, and currently working in this direction.
The 1:144 scale ISS model became a success - we received the most positive feedback from our NASA customers.
We see a future for this model as it is more portable, easier to handle and cost much less than the 1:100 scale model.
The clouds were NOT playing nice again tonight. The star trails were very choppy. I got a ton of skyglow and really had to post process this one. But it turned out okay...

Couldn't think of a catchy title for this one. I love the intricate detailing of the space station in the M:S queue. Wow, what a great attraction. The design of the M:S queue gives me hope that the Disney Imagineers will do something incredibly cool in the refurbished WDW version of Space Mountain (since I haven't been to DL to experience Rockin' Space Mountain... yet).
