NASA Artemis Space Launch System (SLS), 1/144 - Revell 03760

The NASA Artemis Space Launch System (SLS) by Revell, reference 03760, is a plastic model kit to be assembled at the 1/144 scale, depicting the heavy Space Launch System launcher associated with NASA’s Artemis space program.

The Space Launch System, generally referred to by its SLS acronym, is designed for exploration missions beyond low Earth orbit. This miniature reproduction showcases the launcher’s distinctive silhouette, featuring its strap-on boosters, the central stage, and the Orion spacecraft placed on top.

A Revell space model kit in 1/144 scale

Comprising 53 parts, this kit lets you build a display model dedicated to contemporary space exploration. The 1/144 scale reduces every dimension of the real launcher by a factor of 144, while keeping a presentation suitable for a collection of space models.

The box includes decals to complete the model’s markings. Assembly and painting help highlight the visual separation between the launcher’s white elements, the central stage, and the technical areas located at the base of the rocket.

Assembly and finishing

As with any plastic kit to be assembled, preparing the parts before gluing helps achieve a neat result: precise removal from the sprues, light deburring, and checking the alignment of sub-assemblies. Applying a primer can help ensure even paint coverage and reveal any mold seam lines that may need correcting.

Decals should be applied to a clean, smooth surface. A glossy finish before applying them, followed by an appropriate protective clear coat, helps integrate the markings into the overall decoration. Fine brushes or an airbrush are suitable for handling the different shades and propulsion details.
