I finally finished 2. My Starship Vega clone. I got a set of laser cut fins and balsa cones from Semroc and decals from Excelsior.

Next is my Orbital Goonieceptor. Built from a Baby Bertha with decals again from Phred. I really like how this goonie looks. I deviated from my previous goonies by modifying the wing fins. I lengthened them by 1/4 in. and I also moved the launch lug to the wing root instead of on the bottom. Other than that it is kind of stock.

Phreds decals are great, as always.

Nice looking birds! The Starship Vega is on my want-to-clone list as well - or maybe a Super Starship Vega.

Semroc has all the parts. One stop shopping:

Excelsior and Tango Papa both have decals. I used Phreds decals on both my Vega and Goonie Vega.

Looks great, Mark! I don't know how I managed to miss this thread 'till now...:confused:

I'm getting -Goony Overload- all of a sudden !
