It looks great!

But yeah... You're not posting on this site correctly. There's some policy against blatant self promotion up here, so a moderator will probably come set you straight in a bit. They're cool though. They'll probably tell you how to make it work and it'll be fine.

Nice build. I supported.

Thanks brother! Yeah I tried to remove it after giving it more thought, but I can't seem to find that "delete" button.

Great work! Elon Musk is one of my favorite people right now, I'm excited to see what he'll do in the future. Welcome to Eurobricks, by the way.

Yes, that looks cool. But, as already noted, we can't serve as a billboard for Ideas project. Tell you what. Since we are cool and all...i wont point you toward the Guidelines etc (but do read them! link in my description)...just gonna tell you here.

(in whisper voice) You can post a link to your project, IF you make a small presentation here. (end of whisper voice)

So, you do us a favor by posting nice pics and some text, and we let you post a nice link to your ideas, so you might get more votes. How's that?

I already love the "atmosphere" of this place. Much better than reddit! Thank you so much!

(In a whisper voice) Ok here are some pictures...

The Falcon Heavy (Version 1)

 

The Falcon 9 with Crew Dragon...

 

Stages separate like the Saturn V...

 

The Falcons have landed...

 

Cross struts...

 

Satellite deployment...

 

And here is a picture after I added 3 inches (version 2)...

 

And here is the add-on I'm currently working on (finished build will be cherry red)...

Very cool and well executed build! Supported  I doubt that a second rocket scale model will make it through the selection, but maybe SpaceX will pick up on it 

I think the roadster payload works better than the satellite by the way!

Looks like a great MOC, I've got the Saturn V just not built it yet.

Definitely needs to have a Dark Red car as its payload

Thanks! The cherry red Tesla pieces are in the mail. Should have a picture of the completed thing soon.

[supertruper1988]

That will be cool. Can you PM me once you have 10 posts? I have some ideas for you.

This is a great MOC. Unluckily the Saturn V does not have the pieces to build this as a B-model.

When you build the Tesla Roadster don´t forget Starman...

[Tron Of Black]

Ha, very cool! Would look great next to the Saturn V for sure :) I cant't wait to see the roadster in a nice red :)

[LM71Blackbird]

I'm already supporting it over on ideas, but wanted to stop by and say, great looking model! Keep up the awesome work!

What scale is this Falcon Heavy in?

I found another that is in the same scale as Saturn V

It’s about 1:80. When I started building I targeted the 1:110 scale, but eventually realized a FH at that size can’t support the level of detail I was looking for. And the piece count is too few so the build isn’t as entertaining.

Here is the Tesla Roadster with Starman, as well as further improvements, for those who may not have seen them.

Let's not quote pics from a previous post.

Thank you to the scale info.

Cheers for the updates.

New updates!
