Pete Malaguti
Pete used Revell's 1/24 scale Gemini spacecraft to depict
Gemini 9A and astronaut Gene Cernan, whose overheating suit made for a difficult spacewalk. Pete rebuilt the figure with epoxy putty and scratchbuilt the life-support chest pack. He scratchbuilt the hatch interiors, the ejection seats, and the Astronaut Maneuvering Unit (AMU). RealSpace Models provided the window coves and nose radar; Space Model Systems the decals.
