Panzer IV mit Rheintochter AA Missile - Finished

[buzzbomb]

So.. if you take a couple of the hugest Knitting needles you can find, 15mm diameter.. and the come bigger


Hack away at a 1/35 Academy Panzer IV (which is all they are really good for anyway)


You eventually end up with.. a PanzerIV mit Rheintochter Self Propelled Missile platform for your Panzerwaffe '46 collection



In launch Mode.. yes it all works



Disassemble Stephanie.. well a way to show the two bits


Still got some way to go, with the last of the control fins on the missile, plus some more mounting jiggery pokery, but moving along ok. A couple of weekends work

Brilliant!  Guess it fits into the Fatherland world, what to do with surplus Panzer IV's.  Great conversion work, the knitting needle missile is a work of art, HOG would be proud!

[Sisko]

Wow Brian that is certainly a great bit of kit bashing!
Excellent stuff!!!!!

[ChernayaAkula]

Wow! Amazing craftsmanship at work there!

Nice Whiffery.  And a good use for all those knitting needles people here seem to be getting as they take up knitting.  Excellent display of scratchbuilding skills.
