Tsiklon, KSLV and Mercury

Hi guys!
After some weeks a little busy with some exams I am back.

I managed to complete these amazing models by Leo.


First the KSLV-1, a Russian-Korean lightweight launcher:


Since the model is a little difficult to keep in a vertical position I made a very crude launch pad with a ladder:




This model has a detachable nose cone with a small engine:


Next the TSYKLON rocket with a closeup of its eight first stage engines and an extra upper stage:




Finally the Mercury spacecraft with a escape launch system (my first incursion into non Russian-Soviet models up to now):




And now a comparison with the Soviet Zond spacecraft (which traveled unmanned around in moon during the moon race with the US). Keep in mind the difference in scales: Mercury is 1:24 whereas Zond is 1:48.



I hope you like them !
