Subject pretty much covers it. Does anybody know where I might find one in 1/48 or 1/32 or 1/35th scale? I saw something on Concept Ships that looks very interesting and buildable.

Gannet Scale Models do a rather nice one in 3d printed resin. Drop Alistair a pm as hd posts here as Lost Cosmonaut.

If you don't mind hard rubber figures (they are somewhat paintable) these are 1/32-1/35: Astronaut and Space Toy Action Figure Playset-
These SF figures have astronauts as well. same scale, slightly harder to paint.

I have a few of each, if you want them - just email me your address.

Here's what I'm thinking of. By Alex Ries on Conceptships.

Thank you good Mr @The Wooksta!

The astronaut I do is based on the Smithsonian museum's scan of Neil Armstrong so you can have a gander around him here
