Since this photo was taken, this rocket has been damaged, repaired, and modified to the point where the decals (which are also Stickershock's work) now say just "Same Old".

Here's my Basic Blues 4 with 54mm motor mount, built stock. It's adorned with silver paint and a decal from Stickershock23.com to resemble a Lava Lamp. It's flown twice so far, at LDRS 31. I'm planning to launch it next as an L2 attempt in Berwick ME with MMMSC.

Here it is at liftoff on a Pro38 5g skidmark at LDRS. This is a still from a video captured and helpfully sent to me by DTH Rocket (his blog: https://dthrocket.blogspot.com/). I didn't get any good photos of it myself, and am grateful to anybody who happened to get one.
