Parts You'll Need

You'll need a lot of pieces. Some of them are not Lego, for example the grey hood, is some different type of Lego bricks.

Connect the 4/6 Flat Plate to the 4/4&2 Slanted Brick

This is the base of the rocket, from here you'll attach everything to here.
Connect The 4/6 Flat Plate To The 4/4&2 Slanted Brick, or the different variations of bricks you have.

1/4 at the End

On top of each 1/1 your going to attach a 1/2 slanted brick to the ship. It has to attach to the end/s/ of the 1/4, and on the bottom, to the 1/1.

2/2 to Empty Space

You now have to simply attach a 2/2, to the gap created by the two 1/2 slanted bricks on the 1/4 brick. Make sure half of it hangs out over the edge of the space ship.

Smoothen It Out
