NASA Mercury, Gemini and Apollo Spacecraft
One of my interests is space and spacecraft and I've recently started working on my own MOCs of spacecraft. The first one is NASA's Mercury spacecraft which carried the first Americans into space and later into orbit around Earth during 1961-1963.
Currently the design only exists as a digital model but I will be building it soon and when I do I'll update this page

When I designed my Mercury model I wanted it to be in scale with a minifigure and I also wanted to be able to fit a minifigure inside it. I came up with a design that should work but it will be a tight squeeze.

I might build the Redstone rocket that launched the first two Mercury missions and I'm also planning to do the Gemini and Apollo spacecraft as models too in the near future.
