Hello, I’m doing a clone of Estes V-2 K-22 and I’m getting to the point of fisishing it. I’d like to pattern the paint job after V-2 No. 13, the rocket that took the first photos of the Earth from space. Thing is, I can’t find any photographs of the rocket itself. Anyone have any refernce photos or drawings of that particular V-2? Here’s the wikipedia entry. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-2_No._13

Thanks in advance for the help!

It can be a challenge to track down the pant scheme for individual rounds of the V-2 launched at White Sands. Here’s a link to the awesome Post War V-2 site, there’s pictures of Round 12 and Round 14 - probably a safe assumption that 13 looked the same http://www.postwarv2.com/usa/ws/ws.html

And here’s the link to the paint scheme page, again R12 and R14 are shown http://www.postwarv2.com/paintschemes/
