Thanks for clarifying that for me Drew, I thought it was just a generic range box that he had...Looks like something I'm gonna want to take the appropriate amount of time to build...by NERRF#4??? The "Master Series" moniker seems awfully intimidating.
Take Care,
Andy

Take your time with the vacuum formed parts. It's actually not all that difficult a build.
Two tips: make sure the BT is clean before you start applying the foil strips. Trust me, any specs will make bumps under the foil
Also, get some bare metal foil to cover the fairings. Estes doesn't give you enough foil to cover them and painting them silver doesn't quite match.

Whoa do you mean NERRF 3? That's the next one, unless you are planning on taking a year and a half to build it (like me). But even mine will be ready for NERRF 3, so who knows, maybe a triple Mercury Atlas drag race? I've never even seen one finished Atlas at a launch, 3 would be a sight to behold! Someone get a camera ready!
Wow Fred $195 for this? Inconceivable! I got mine last year on a ROL auction for $50 and I was the only bidder, guess I should count myself lucky.
Now Drew, about those fairings, in all the pictures I have studied in preparation for finishing this, the fairings don't look like they are supposed to match the area where you put the foil strips on. Looks like there is meant to be some contrast. I have already started painting the lower parts of the rocket with Testor's Metallic Silver and it looks pretty close to the real thing as far as I can tell, can you clarify what you mean?
