Hello, fellow modelers!

Here is the fifth part of the series of articles dedicated to the "XII Master Hobby Show" that took place in the "21st Century Hall of Automobile" at the Transport Museum in Caracas, Venezuela, on October 10 and 11 2009.

There were two figures that specially captured our attention: a 1.9 m (six-feet, approx.) tall robot, which was scratchbuilt using paper, cardboard and tubes from tissue rolls (photos 1, 4 and 5) and a figure of the Apollo 11 astronaut Edwin Aldrin on which the modeler cleverly added a reproduction of the historic photo showing the moon landing site reflected on his helmet's glass (see large photo below.)

We hope you'll enjoy the photos.
