qn30jEkPz7 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) tFiguring that with no internal features, transparencies or flying surfaces the V-2 would be an ideal blitz build candidate Kit, Christmas dinner leftover turkey etc. and a bonus kit if things are going really really well we start At 16:15 on the 28th. Oodles of time to beat the deadline Making a start After sweating some leek in oil, frying lardons, adding a little flour and then stock we have a gravy. Mix with leftover chopped up turkey, more leek and top with half a pack of ready roll puff pastry we have A bit of baking and model making time later we have dinner and Edited December 29, 2019 by LostCosmonauts 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnson Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Very nice, and the V2. May have to get one, but really need a V2 in 1/144 to go with my rocket collection (Atlas to Saturn V). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely kit and the stand is a lovely bit of engineering Where we’re at now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qn30jEkPz7 Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 All of the plastic stuck together and base colour on Won’t get it done tonight as the paint will need longer to dry before I can mask the anti-glare panel and do decals but it was an honourable attempt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qn30jEkPz7 Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 Well... anti glare panel is drying but it definitely needs another coat of the red to get good coverage and be able to put decals on so I present.
