This was worth every dollar both for the instructions and the parts. I know it's anachronistic Discovery never launched with a white tank but wasn't willing to paint Lego or use the other, reconstructed nose. I replaced all the orange parts with white. You can get away with some 1x3 and 1x4 in double the quantity if you've got them. This step is repeated for both boosters, so you will need double the parts to assemble this. The spot actually calls for a 2x7 panel (which may or may not exist), but the way it's designed, you can use a 2x3 and a 2x4 of any colour in that step. On, step 283, there is white 2x8 panel referenced but it is physically impossible to fit that where it's documented. There does appear to be one small mistake that is worth noting for anyone building this.
Everything is logical and there are no real difficulties assembling anything. First up, by and large this is well-designed and there are a nice variety of techniques used. This was a fun build and I want to thank NG_Design for taking the time to design this so. This MOC is a Modification of the following: I have added some pictures to give an impression of the final result (compared to an original LEGO orange brick separator). finally the user lindenhoef wrothe a helpful commend wich I will quote here: " Regarding painting the Lego parts - I tried more then 6 different locally available (Germany) colors from various companies and the best result that I have achieved was with a combination of 3 - 4 layers 'Tamiya 81006 - X 6 Orange' and a final 1 - 2 layer of the Revell clear varnish No. finally, you should spray the part often 5 to 10 times with a very thin layer. During the coloring itself, it is necessary to focus on the visible parts don't spray the bottom. I would recommend you to compare the color with an orange lego brick before u buy it.
as u can see in the pictures I chose a color that was slight to dark. I bought the spray can in a random tool market.

LEGO MOC Space Shuttle Discovery 10283 Upgrade Tank and Booster Historic Version by NG_Design | Rebrickable - Build with LEGO and now also in dark orange: LEGO MOC Space Shuttle Discovery 10283 Upgrade Tank and Booster dark orange version by NG_Design | Rebrickable - Build with LEGO Painting: here is a picture of how I painted the parts that are not available in orange.

I uploaded an instruction for the vertical stand get it for free at: LEGO MOC Vertical Stand update for Space Shuttle Discovery by NG_Design | Rebrickable - Build with LEGO Now the model is also available in the historic white look. So I think now the model is perfect but if you will find some additional issues please tell me in the comments so I can improve it further. The old instruction (tank_old_version.pdf) and the old part list (old_part_list.xml) are still available. There are also some changes in the part list so I updated this too.
For these reasons I changed the model slightly and designed a new instruction (tank_update_1.pdf ). furthermore, some steps in the instruction were not 100% clear or perfectly understandable. a second problem was that the stand is not below the center of gravity. But same minor issues appear the first was that parts of the nose were connected to lose. Update 1: After I get all the parts I build the model and I'm so happy that there were no unsolvable problems. LEGO MOC Update to MOC-73206 by NG_Design | Rebrickable - Build with LEGO At the end of the description, I add some information about the painting. If you don't want to paint lego parts I made a modified version of the nosecone where all parts are available. I think it is not a big deal to paint those parts to orange and this is what I will do when I build it. Attention: There are a few parts that are not available in orange I add them to the part list as black and the pictures at the end show the model with these parts. I hope u like the design and enjoy the model. The instruction is generated by Studio.io but I defined every step and therefore it is easy to build like an official Lego set. The main engineering work was the round shape of the nose cone. The model itself is huge (77cm high) due to the scale of 1/70. I really try to choose cheap parts the final Price on Briklink for me was between 160 and 225 Euro (Germany). It takes me some nights but finally, I finished the missing Tank and Booster for the new Lego Space Shuttle 10283.
