“The Artist Signature Series”

“Bringing together some of the most talented artists and designers in the industry, this series offers some of the coolest designs ever available in a modeling kit!

The first featured artist is Scott Willis. A life-long artist, Scott has an extensive art and design background which includes over 20 years of work in the aerospace industry, as well as consumer products and movie concept art design.

An award-winning designer and long-time science fiction fan, Scott brings an excitement and passion to designing every project he creates. Inspired by the classic TV and movie rockets of the 60’s and 70’s, the ‘Mercury 9’ rocket is a modern take on the classic rocket designs he grew up with as a kid. Time for blast off!”

The kit’s ABS plastic parts are cleanly molded in light gray and clear, with recessed panel details. The kit includes the rocket, launch pad, fueling station and command center. A small sheet of waterslide decals is provided for markings.

The completed rocket stands 13.5 inches high on its stand.
