And you think the Mercury Redstone tower is too much work?
Looking for some inspiration? Check out this diorama video: CLICK HERE
The motorized tracks are pretty amazing.
This might give some insight on how a Red Max diorama could be made. (See, I did tie it back to rocketry.)
The video was moving kind of fast, but that corrugation forming tool looked rather interesting. A lot of work the landscape builders, i.e., model railroaders, can do is pretty darn amazing.
ReplyDeleteHi Ed,
DeleteI thought the same thing about the corrugation tool. I looked through the Micromark website but didn't find it.

DeleteHo-lee cow!
ReplyDeleteHi Lonnie,
DeleteThat's all that scene needs is a cow!
holey cow -- a perforated or high-porosity bovine?
DeleteChris, that was a really amazing video. I think we would all like to see you do a few dioramas for your rockets! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Lee,
DeleteI've never one a diorama. That's a whole new skill set I don't have the time to learn or room to display!
Indeed the display suggestion on the instructions for the Der Red Max was amusing with that rickety-looking tower, rope and scattered drumcans -- somewhat more interesting in appearance than the "launch table" used with the V-2.
ReplyDeleteThe display suggestion on the Interceptor instructions was also pretty neat.
