Description
So...I decided to stack my Starship model atop the SuperHeavy rocket booster, and I have to say, I'm not disappointed. I am still working on both of these models; in fact, you can probably see some differences on both models. Probably the most noticeable is, yes, I changed the grid fins on SuperHeavy. I may actually change the landing gear housings, as well, I think they're a bit too far from the main rocket.
Oh, also: the aerodynamic surfaces on Starship are retracted in this image, folded back against the fuselage of the rocket. I think I mentioned it in a previous post, but basically, this is most likely how Starship will launch, as the aerodynamic surfaces would be trying to pull the rocket backwards (like a dart thrown backwards). Obviously, not a great thing to happen on a rocket.
