Hi, All,
I just finished up this fun build of an OOP Quest Aerospace kit, the Nike-K (Kit 2002).
It was a fun, easy build which turned out fairly nice. Even though the kit is designed to be built and flown as is, I took the time to fill body tube and launch lug seams and paint the model. The fin can and transition were brush painted. Kit supplied decals are stick-on, and I also added a waterslide checkerboard band on the payload section, a black band above the fin can, and decals of the fleet number and my old NAR number.
Look forward to flying this attractive bird.
