Proton-K
Hi guys.
I've been out for a while but now I managed to finish this wonderful model by Leo. I made some minor modifications for the sake of simplicity in the construction (such as the way the first and second stages connect). I hope you like it. |

That looks really nice; so what did you do to modify it?

Hi.
Pure imagination in fact xd. The connections in the truss joining the first and second stages seemed rather unstable for me so I replaced it by small paper tubes in the second stage so that they can fit more rigidly the red thin rods in the first stage top truss. |

Looks amazing! Well done! How tall is it fully assembled? I managed to sneak a 1:96 scale Saturn V past the wife, but I'd risk her wrath to make anything that tall again.

Hi. Roughly speaking the final model is 63cm tall (slightly taller than the Proton-M model). This model is 1:96, so a 1:48 one must be very impressive!

Great build. It is on my (long) list of rockets to build.
Thank you. |

Yes, the "And I've made special modifications myself" tradition of great spacecraft. Or spacecraft models.
