A nice offering by
Dragon, the Redstone rocket & Mercury capsule. Good diorama potential here.
I'll have to do one up one of these days. This is a very cleanly molded
kit with excellent decals. Instructions are on the box back. Building & painting in sub assemblies will give the best results (as always).

Tamiya gloss
white, gloss black, Model Master insignia red & chrome silver were used.
The cylindrical parts were given two coats of the gloss white, the first coat being wet sanded with 1000 grit paper.
A very light application of Dullcoat was used to seal the decals.
This
build was a nice break: no scratch built parts needed, no #80 holes need
to be drilled. Nice.
