I have been working on a new V-2 rocket truck conversion based on dragons sdkfz-7 . So far I have the inital rough in stages done ........believe me these angles were a beast to get done.

Moved this to the proper forum modelguru. Looks very cool. Are you going to pose it with a V-2? Also do you have plans you are working from or did you make your own. I have wondered about some of the specialty vehicles for the V-2 for a while now and am interested in this. Looks good, (y) I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks James
Actually this is the rough in for a master that I am going to cast as a limited run conversion . Yes I am working from scale drawings/plans. There are several other V-2 support vehicles I am in searh of the scale plans for ..... it may just be an issue where I have to do the scale conversion from photos. Then again i have never backed down from a challenge.
 
Hey I remember that vehicle. Awesome work so far. I hear you about the angles. I did this scratch built commission model 8 years ago...angles..:gogo

Thanks Rob
Its coming along I am working out of town as usual so I have done this sitting in a hotel room ...... I dont have everything with me that I needed . After I got out of the dentist yesterday I needed something to concentrate on to take my mind off of the tooth issue so I pulled out my plans and started cutting ..... before that I had to do the build up on the sdkfz 7 ....... so needles to say i became a little obsesed with it . My wife calls it getting in the zone . When I go there the rest of the world does not exist ....... I become one with the styrene .
I will keep posting as I go .............. I am also planning a full interior which is actually spartan and the launch trailer.
