[Robert Porter]

Nice! Added to the mental how to inventory!

This is a work of art, beautiful!

Thanks guys.

Before installing the R/P's, I added some exhaust and cannon smoke stains to the underside as these involved handling the model and swing an airbrush around it. I want to minimize the risk of knocking the R/Ps off.

With that done, I installed the first set of R/Ps with the desired pitch stagger and bent the cables to attach the plugs.

The spacing is not quite right at the back end but I don't think I can fix that now.

Nice work on the rockets Andy, like 'em

 

[Robert Porter]

I know we say it all the time, but your rockets turned into well done mini models all in and of themselves! Very nice!

 

[turbo]

Your rockets rock.

Thanks all. All I need to do now is add a canopy latch and string the aerial but the wife stole my invisible mending thread and now can't find it. I should be able to finish Sunday if I can get my hands on some.

Always a problem finding invisible thread - but it might be hiding in the 'Colour pics for a model.....' thread !
