Hi all here is my next project (with a bit of trepidation)never built a rocket before but, I do think the paint job is boring to say the least, so, eXpect some major changes.

Hi all here is where I am now, The first stage and rockets are a terrible fit.

How tall is it? Looks good so far.

Hi all not done any modeling today but lots of research its going to be red white and blue but in dazzle cammo, I can't do links to sites but dazzle seems to become varied, almost tribal. I used to be a Tattooist till it got to my eyes. I quite like the leviathan camo or the 1915 Olympic troopship camo what do you think.
Oh and it's 760 mm in hight.
-
If you really want a sight to sore eyes, use the "zebra" black and white triangle camouflage applied to at least one F-6 of the 11th TRS over North Africa.

Hi all well here is another change of direction, this is just a mock up of how I figure it going, I am doing this as a fast troop transport, when I say fast I mean, real fast.

Looking good! Like the cockpit idea.

Looking good.
Dare I suggest that this is another candidate for the Vertical Takeoff GB (http://beyondthesprues.com/Forum/index.php?board=59.0) - after all, it does take of vertically...
-
Fast troop transport? Genius! ;D This will be one to follow.

Jumpin Jehosaphat! That is VTAL to the Max ... hell of a ride for a grunt ;D

Awesome work! I've done something similar, and this very kit - which also includes enough leftovers to make another fairly decent rocket! Yours reminds me of something for Dan Dare!

Yes,yes I know the markings are probably wrong(I know less than nothing about German markings)but hey its not real, nothing like it actually exists.

Love the lighting, I'm going to try that one day ... maybe ... perhaps if I get over my last nasty incident with a soldering iron ... :-[
