Finally finished! Semi-scale build. Fins are oversized, but I did a reasonable job o' matchin' t' original fillets (larger at t' bottom). Painted with t' German field test pattern - white and black roll pattern on t' fins and fin can, but olive drab for t' main body and nose. Decals are combination o' Estes and Excelsior, with a matte finish clear coat over t' entire model. Blimey!
This kit was built stock, shiver me timbers, with t' substitution o' 1/4" elastic shock cord for t' Estes rubber band, ya bilge rat, and a green 18" ripstop parachute. I also added a Nomex chute heat shield.
