Here's the picture of the BBX. My monitor is crap, so I can't tell if the color block black and red on the bottom half shows up at all.
NOTE: there are a couple of things here that aren't quite to scale as they should be.
1. I couldn't find anything on the dimensions of the black stripes that go on the silver at the top of the rocket, so I left those for a later date in the hopes that I find the info at some time.
2. I started measuring from the top of the rocket and I think the ratio on the N/C is too short, so the silver stripe above the upper fins is about an inch and a half shorter than it should be.
3. I sanded the leading and trailing edges on the small forward fins wrong. The trailing edge of the fins SHOULD be perpendicular to the rocket, not angled up as they are on this bird.
4. There should be another ring of silver .75" wide around the bottom of the rocket. This will get taken care of as well if this thing survives its first day of flying.
Anyway, here it is:
