Well. I finished this a long time ago, but I forgot to post it. This is NOT 1:1 scale, but it looks pretty cool.
About Ares-IV
The Ares IV concept combines an Ares I upper stage on top of an Ares V. Specifically, the vehicle would consist of the liquid-fueled core stage from the Ares V design, two five-segment solid rocket boosters, and the liquid-fueled upper stage from the Ares I, as described by NASA in January 2007. The Ares IV would be a combined 367 ft (112 m) tall and could be used to reach the Moon. Total payload capacity would be 90,420 lb (41,000 kg) to 240 miles (390 km) for direct trans-lunar injection. NASA had considered using Ares IV to evaluate high-speed "skip" reentry profiles of the Orion capsule in 2007. NASA had planned flight demonstrations of Ares I and Ares V hardware in "Heavy Lift" configurations beginning in 2013. The "Heavy Lift" test flights were to test the first stage of the Ares V simultaneously with the Ares I upper stage attached on top to save both time and money. The later Heavy Lift test vehicle configurations are similar to the Ares IV vehicle.
The Ares-IV is basically the Ares-V Core stage and SRBs but with a Ares-1 upper stage with the CEV.
Hope you enjoy. Controls should be self-explanatory. This can most certainly reach luna and back.
In the future I might remake my Ares crafts and make them 1:1 scale.
As usual this contains a LAS.

screams in SLS
@pianoAerospace No this rocket isn’t designed to launch the lander and crew at the same time. You launch the ares-V with the lander and launch this rocket to dock with the lander
@HorizonsTechnologies but this one.
@pianoAerospace I already did. Check my ares-V craft.
can you make an Altair lander on this?
@TerTech SLS was originally derived from the Ares-V and Ares-1.
Looks like SLS!
Good b
@HorizonsTechnologies dang
@DrexxVolv too bad. I longer in production since the late 19th century.
@HorizonsTechnologies i meant the gun…
@DrexxVolv He does! Here name is Claire Elise Boucher
@HorizonsTechnologies Why doesn’t Elon have his Elon Musket yet?
@DrexxVolv What?
@HorizonsTechnologies Lol. Also, we have a serious problem to discuss.
@DrexxVolv Well I already have the holy Elon musk to do it for me.
@HorizonsTechnologies exactly
He was a genius.
@DrexxVolv It was a German that enabled us to land a person on the moon as well.
@HorizonsTechnologies german heritage can destroy the world
and help you become an aeronautical genius
@DrexxVolv after all, I have German in me
@DrexxVolv I improved it and showed what horizons engineering can do.
@HorizonsTechnologies got deleted, but still
@DrexxVolv What?
Wow.
Amazing.
i liked your piano post >:)
