1/72 Fiesler Fi103 Reichenberg IV

[Spey_Phantom]

the second Luft46 project from the old heller box that was completed and restored.
its been painted up in 2-tone green speckled camoflage with decals from the spares box.

the Fiesler Fi103 was basicly a manned version of the V1 missile, ans was used to study the stability problems with the V1 Doodlebuggs. there were rumors that suggested the the germans designed this aircraft as a suicide fighter, but sceptics believe that it was never intended for that role.









kinda looks a bit like snoopy from a certain angle

I think if you painted the aircraft white, with the nose black,  painted the cockpit glass like goggles and the canopy covering "leather", you could have the engine painted like a wavy scarf and be pretty close!!!  

Now that I'm inspired, look for a photoshopped pic of my idea soon!    

[EDIT] Here it is!
