A-4/V-2 Missile

Post by Stikpusher »

I’m calling this one done. I finished this one up earlier today, Takom’s 1/35 V-2/A-4 Rocket, the first man made machine to travel into outer space…. in the 1940’s!

and just for some comparison, it is posed next to the 1/35 DML/Dragon SS-1C Scud missile, it’s Soviet direct descendant.

Can't see the images for some reason. Can't see them at the other place either.
Thanks,

Be.auto fully done! No

That looks really sharp Carlos. Very nice paint job.

Thanks guys! It sure is one imposing beast to put on a shelf once completed. :hmm:
