This proved harder to do than i expected.......changed the colour of the landie/trailer/launcher......it was too dark so ended up brush painting with Revell nato green......added some 'glass' to the landie and a lead on the dog

Biggest problem i had was once it was built the missile no longer sat on the trailer.....the arms needed tweeking outwards a bit but i was too worried it would snap so the missile is on the launcher

Kit comes with some tiny figures.....three erks, a Rupert and a Snowdrop with a dog.......as a few of us can relate the alsation is the one with the higher iq of the duo 🤣🤣

Not my best work but as ever always fun to do....and i always love doing ancient kits....this was new tool in 1960!

Nice result Paul 👍 Those figures brings back memories 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️ cheers
 
Surprising what a nice model can be made from these geriatric kits. Fun as well 👍
 
Nice result for an "oldie".
 
That's turned out very nicely. Well done!

Turned out nice!

I'm not disagreeing with your colour choice, but I think I'll stick to the ones on the boxart - they look prettier!😀 Mind you, with all the messing about I've had to do with my motors, all I've done so far is fill a few ejector pin marks. I've not even had time to upload my pics!
