My take on SLS

There are already a lot of good SLS designs. But as for me only the best is good enough, I had to give it a try. So, here it is. After a week of hardcore engineering. My very own SLS in 1:220. I tried my best to implement every important detail. Like cone-shaped second stage adapter, separable second stage with its engine, small difference in diameters in second stage and fairing, swappable Orion with service module and with or without solar arrays to depict different stages of flight. I even added such small detail as quick disconnect plate right above the RS-25s, which is a place where infamous hydrogen fuel lines are connected to the rocket. Boosters took a lot of work too. They have stripes in all the correct places where segments are stacked. Attachment point are in the same places as on the real ones, and they provide realistic spacing between boosters and core stage. Furthermore, I made connections points on boosters and on the core stage as subtle as possible, so they don’t stick out when boosters are separated. Please note that no illegal building techniques were used in this model. I hope you like it. Instructions are not ready yet.

Soyuz 2.1 with Soyuz and Progress

One more model for my small rocket garden. It was quite hard to make Soyuz with all its different colours and conical shapes. I even tried to keep small differences in central core diameters as much as possible. Separable side blocks with conical shape, a lot of small engines and overall slender profile were a hard quest of its own. I hope you like the final design. Instructions are here if needed: https://reb.li/m/262356

One of my favourite mechanical beasts now in bricks. Do you like it? Should I make an instruction? Also next to my Lego Glados. Yes, I like evil-robot-hanging-from-ceiling-things.

BTW. I like this character so much, because I like to picture myself as Fabrication Machine, when tinkering with bricks scattered across my table.
