Today I was able to take a few pictures of the first Atlas launcher, which was completed yesterday. Well, it is not easy to take pictures of such a decidedly upright rocket!
This project is a by-product of the Atlas-Mercury, which I was mainly interested in, but it turned out to be quite impressive - Horizon Models did everything to show an Atlas built as detailed as possible.

Good idea to add a figure for showing the huge size of the missile. Well done build!

Thanks Jürgen! Last weekend the two Atlas didn't make it to the "Euromodels" in Ried in time - it's nice that I can show them here! 🙂

Thank you both very much!DThe The metal surfaces were applied in a few spray passes with different metal colours from Alclad. The main colours used were "White Aluminum", "Aluminum", "Dark Aluminum" and "Polished Aluminum" as well as "High Speed Aluminum". Lots of aluminium, it seems! 🙂
Thomas, thank you for your words - I am very interested in civil space travel, but it was the models from "Horizon Models" that made me decide to build a few models.
Thomas, danke für Deine Worte- ich bin zwar an der zivilen Raumfahrt sehr interessiert, trotzdem haben mich erst die Modelle von "Horizon Models" dazu gebracht, auch ein paar Modelle dazu zu bauen.
