After seeing this I gotta get back on the micro bandwagon.....I had intended a run of downscales of my favorites (Constellation, Nova Payloader as well as Alpha) but got sidetracked. Now that the 2.56x upscale Nova Payloader is about done, it's time for the small one.....
 
I want to do BT-5 Downscales of some of the TLP Kits. They might need to be a hair larger than BT-5 though to allow for the Tail Cones.
 
Wow, been a while since this thread was active. It's also been a while since I made any new BT-5 downscales. Most of the ones I made with MS Paint, which was an adequate graphics program for what I was doing. The version of Paint that comes with Windows 8 is crap. They have taken away all of the useful tools. I can only guess it's because they want to sell you an app that does what the old free program did.

And this thread was really a continuation of a thread that's on the TRF Archive.

Am starting to build my Micro/Mini fleet... here is what I've accomplished so far. All BT-5's from the Scratch Mini Classics here: http://archive.rocketreviews.com/reviews/all/scratch_est_mini_classics.shtml
I also decided to try and build an Estes Citation Patriot, which turned out pretty good I thought. Still have to print the "patriot"
vinyl stickers for the black fins, but after I light coat of clearcoat, they'll be ready to fly.
