Default 1/100 Rocket Garden

I have a little 1/100 US manned spaceflight rocket garden. Everything except my Saturn V fits on a display shelf upstairs where I can enjoy seeing them.

I added a new one today. It’s actually 1/107 - but close enough for my purposes.

Apologies in advance for sideways photos. I have a hard time guessing what the upload function here is going to do to them.

Yeah. They both started upright.
I find the resizing during uploading to be really unpredictable.

I used to take more time to upload to a different host, like photobucket or Flickr and insert links. Every now and then, I see what YORF does if I just upload them.

I know Scott has said there are technical reasons why unscaled images can’t be hosted. Or why there isn’t server-side rescaling.

Wait! I meant to say ‘I have a gravity inverter in my house’.

Charles,

This appears to be the most convincing of all your assertions.

Whose Space Shuttle model is that? It doesn't look like the Estes 1284

Ah.. very nice! I like the detail on the SRBs. The Estes had just one small decal on each one.
