Just finished this awesome kit sold by Bad Boy Rocketry. This is rocket #3 for me. I used Ironlak and Montana Cans acrylic spray paints. I also got to use adjustable expanding foam for the first time to secure weight in the nosecone - that was exciting. We have three other upscaled goonies that I can't wait to build (Zoom Broom, Cloud Hopper, and Sky Shriek). Fun stuff!

Looks great, you did a good job.
I think a C11-3 would be great in this kit for “park flying”.

I built their upscale Sky Shriek last fall. I enjoyed the build, and it flies fantastic.
I've been wanting to complete the collection.
Your Galaxy Guppy looks awesome. That is the perfect color for it too.

Thank you! I really tried to make it look like the original. I used Ironlak's Atmosphere (Hobby Lobby) and Montana Cans Shock Orange Light (Amazon). I love the acrylic/graffiti paints - they are unwilling to run. Well, except for the Ironlak clear. It runs like crazy if you're not careful.
