I finished this up over the weekend. This rocket just reminded me too much of Nike Herc or an Ajax that I had to finish it in this scheme. Decals were made using Publisher and a color laser printer. I made them too thick though and was kinda unhappy with myself over that and the fact that I was not paying attention which side I applied them. (Yes, speed does indeed kill) Despite all of that, it came out okay I think.

Actually, the Ricochet looks like a great kitbash kit. I'm planning on turning it into a two stage rocket that will be something like a scaled down Long Tom. It ought to fly great on the A10-0T and A3-0T motors I still have. :D
 
Never really heard of the Estes Ricochet ,so I looked it up.WOW....your version looks so much cooler and has that millitary missile look ,very nice job indeed !!
