DML/Dragon's 1/35 SCUD-B launcher

Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket kit of the clear pieces that would fit all of the window openings on this vehicle? My kit only comes with paper window inserts that would make this thing look kinda cheesy. Or am I going to have to get creative and use the paper inserts as a template on clear acetate?

Go the clear plastic route. You can get a sheet of clear styrene or you can use some glossy clear document protectors. For flat windows in the past I have even used microscope slides and covers. Trimming them can be tricky but there is nothing better than real glass to replicate glass parts.

That is rather strange because my kit has all the clear plastic windows. By the way, be careful with the alignment of the suspensions. I had to tear out mine because some of the wheels would not touch the ground. Eduard has a nice AM of the instrument dials and other stuff. It looks good. Are you doind a Saddam Scud?

mine does too. on another question the instructions call for the interior to be either white or light blue. what is the inside color of an iraqi SCUD? i do think the light blue would look nice against the desert tan. also was the missle really white? thanks.

I used the Soviet aircraft interior blue green color on my kit.
