LSP_Ron Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Just in a quirky build mood and pulling out odd ball stuff. This one is very simple but fun to build. I'll do it up in the classic black and white test unit we are used to seeing. It's quite a large model, I was suprized.

LSP_K2 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Looks like a pretty nice kit there, Ron. I had the Dragon kit (two of them, in fact). How does this kit stack up to the Dragon offering? mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Owens Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) It has all the bits in all the right places, whereas the Dragon offering does not. . . One crucial detail left to the modeler of ANY V-2 is the "hammered boiler plate skin" of the original. Take a look at the NASM display Edited April 12, 2017 by Rob Owens mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaninaustria Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Great subject Ron! Did you get the kit with the truck and launch platform? I'm sitting on the fence with that kit and seeing your build here - I think I might just get it!! Danke!

LSP_K2 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I've not seen the Dragon example.? Oh, OK. I think the Dragon kit is great, but this one looks pretty darn good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 I just got the missle and the base, not the truck. It's a decent kit. A little fiddly to get the body joints to link up but just takes patients. LSP_K2 and Girlscanplay2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Looks ace Ron - I really want to get one of these - with the launcher/truck. Surface detailing looks stunning! Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Ron, just out of interest were you put your WIP.....why in the non-LSP works section i.s.o. the "normal" one, because it's 1/35 isn't it? So it goes for a LSP project, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Ron Terrific choice for a quick build. Looking forward to following your progress Keep 'em coming Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Thx all. More to come but I'm on a little vaca until Tues Jack to answer, Kev and I figured it's really not a aircraft, it's a bomb with a rocket engine. The V1 might be considered the same but some were manned. Most drones are remote control flown but the V 1 isn't really an aircraft so we chose to put it here CANicoll, LSP_K2 and Jack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I seem to be experiencing a similar problem myself, Ron. For the last several weeks, even though I've dabbled a bit here and there, most of the usual joy of the hobby just hasn't been there. While I still visit LSP daily, there's been no real passion to it for me, more just a matter of going through the motions. CANicoll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
