Rocket Battle

[AstroWolfie]

If any of you played Splatoon 3, you will remember the rocket in the story mode. I attempted to make the rocket in PS4, but it failed. (horribly) I also couldn't get the textures right, which was a major headache. Sooo, yeah. Anyone want to make the rocket?

Here is the challenge:

1. Build the rocket

2. Send the rocket to LKO

3. Land the rocket at the space center

4. Everything is reusable.

Drag it into a new tab and it'll display

The rocket is fairly typical, if you've already got a Soyuz recreation using MH then you could do this rocket with a few tweaks around the second/third stage. What if someone tried to make a rocket that A. fits the profile and is reuseable, and B. can redirect an asteroid?

Oh yeah, forgot we should probably put a bear or something on it.

Thats pretty good, put the solids on there and it is a bit more accurate. You could use it to hit a asteroid and make it a fuzzy ooze asteroid!

I tried the challenge myself, and made it to orbit with the rocket. I couldn't get the rocket to land at the KSC though. No matter how many times I tried, the rocket burned up on re-entry. Kerbin was encased by the Fuzzy Ooze. But I did create a replica of the battle. Using the glory of mods and the K-12 EVA Construction Welder, I was able to make it look like Splatoon 3's final boss! And it didn't require losing hours of my life!

Mods Used:

Conformal Decals:

What I did for the rocket battle was use conformal decals to put the trippy flag everywhere. That would be the Fuzzy Ooze. The attachable rat was Mr. Grizz. While it is much smaller than Mr. Grizz was, it's the closest thing I could find resembling a bear. Benjee10's Historical Kerbal Suits was used for the black suit New Agent 3 wore. The EVA welder was used for the hero shot. I forgot to get screenshots of the launch, but that's because the rocket's very hard to control. I focused more on the launch than the screenshots. No pictures of landing it either, becuase, well, every landing failed.

The jig is up, Grizzo (get it? Because Rizzo the Rat and Mr. Gri- never mind.)

HA! Congrats on encasing Kerbin with Fuzzy Ooze!
