Actually that was the 3' model photographed alongside an 18"
commercially available AMT model. You can tell this because the ship in
the background (the 3' model is in the foreground in glorious detail) has
no paint job, decal markings, and most importantly there are no
hemispheres on the nacelle cowlings.

....I need to see that image again. It's been about 35 years :-(

I still have mine buried somewhere in storage along with the GAF version
