Cold war missiles

Yes indeed Johnny, as the Pathe Cinema show us in YouTube, all Thors were whites. Although researching I find another variants with black stripes.

Oh yes, all Thors were white, but they were stashed under cover. How do you fancy this diorama?



My comment about the White livery was more aimed at the Bloodhound.

The Thor Launching site looks doable, but I think it´s a whole year project. Meanwhile the Bloodhound -Sabueso in Spanish- is taking more shape and form. Slow progress as my illness is back. Also tested a PR Models Truck for the 1/300 Thor and the Math and calculations for the 1/300 Bloodhound. Regards,Tony.

Y'all take all the time you need Tony, I'm in no hurry. In fact, I'm still reeling with shock that someone is even attempting the Bloodhound in 1:300. It's just a little bit more complex than the Rockets, but then again it was more of an unmanned aircraft than just a missile.

Tony:
que cool / very nice.
Your design skills are improving nicely.
You forgot to say that Tultepec is the Mexican capital of rocketry.

Hope you feel better. Tultepec needs you!

I'd forgotten I'd taken these. The white livery was in the Science Museum London and the outdoor shots are at RAF Museum Hendon

Sorry about that never did master posting photos

Good pictures DougH! The Bloodhound test build is complete. Now I'll make the panel lines and other details. Meanwhile I´m researching the Rapier System. Best Regards, Tony.

Is the Bloodhound still there Doug? Went in November last year, and do not recall seeing there at all...
