Thank you Kari. Actually the kit did not have a full schematic of the camouflage pattern and I found that instead on this site

Those are great photos! That Cupola is another place in France that I need to visit if I ever make it there someday…. :hmm:

Any more progress on this one? No worries if you've been busy with life as of late.

I've been looking at getting one of these Takom kits, but with the transporter.

No... #1, lack of time... #2, I got burned out on masking the camo pattern on this to do the masking for the final bits... :headslap: :whistle:

I'd suggest doing that Stuart. The rocket itself without something else is rather plain for end display without some sort of vehicle... :hmm:

I was thinking of this - at some-point. I really fancy doing some kind of transporter.

Stuart, I think that would be a great project.

That trailer is the most light-weight bit of German engineering I've seen. Late war material constraints? Functional but doesn't scream GERMAN to me.
