Construction of the MeillerWagen continues.
The two parts have now been united.

Hi Zak,
They look good. An interesting tip to start from black through to light.
Are these figures that come with the kit(s) or are they from other figure providers?
Cheers,
Bigkev
I hope my next is always better

There are no figures in the kit, they are just some that were in the spares box, I think they are tankers.

The build continues, lots of little bits to add, ladders, cables and so on, the build is almost there, now onto painting.

Did I mention that I have two of these.

One will be in transportation mode - together with the Vidalwagen and crane, the other will be in launch mode.

So yes I have two rockets to built as well.
One will be in black and white, I have still to decide on the other paint scheme.

The V2 itself and the firing platform were both straightforward builds.
A little filling will be required on the rocket.

Lots of painting going on, so not much to post at the moment.
Its all been undercoated and now a coat of dunkelgelb will be applied and then some camouflage.

That is impressive!
How high does that stand?
It looks very nice in Dunkelgelb.

24inches x 17 inches -but eventually it will run to two dioramas on bases of the same size - well that is the plan.
