I don't remember seeing a Freedom Forge before now. Is that an OOP kit?
The Deimos looks really neat....I have often considered it but I think its a bit too complex for me to pull off as well as yours. I need better finishing skills - yours looks really nice.
Some of these are new and a few have a couple of flights on them.
1)Estes, Vagabond ( I got to use my new favorite orange on the fin can, it's Rusto "Lobster Red") 2) Fliskits, Long Over Due 3) Custom, Matra (one flight)
4) Estes, Phoenix Bird (several flights) 5) Estes Long Tom (one or two flights)
Wow! These are all great!
The Lobster Red looks like a nice red-orange. I'm going to keep my eye out for that. I'm not a huge fan of most of the oranges I've seen from Rusto, but that looks nice. The Vagabond is a nice-looking rocket. I'm regretting not getting it when it was in the clearance bin at Hobby Lobby.
How did you do all the multi-colored paint on those tube fins? That's a complex paint job. Greet work.
I'm not a big fan of Rusto oranges either but this one is great, comparable to Testors Compitition Orange.
I got my Vagabond from the Hobby Lobby clearance rack for a whopping $7.99, gotta love that!
As for painting the tube fins I masked the glue lines and painted before putting it together. I painted the lighter outer colors first then masked and painted the darker inner color.
The orange in the smaller tube was hand painted.
