My wife says it needs to look like Evel Kneviel's Snake River Rocket, but I'm not convinced I can swing that. Got to find a source for metallic gold starts. Ha.
"Honey, where are my clothespins?" (wife calling from laundry room)For reforming the tail with a coupler slice, I have about 50 tiny clothespins I got from IIRC Hobby Lobby so very small bits can be forced to conform to sturdier bits.
I don't think I have a picture of the Big Daddy I did this way, but here's a demo of how small the pins are / how precisely they can be placed.View attachment 370486
However, gloss paint is smoother than flat paints thus it should be easier to wipe clean.Whatever your other paint schemes are, I like to paint my aft CR flat black. It'll get sooted up anyway so you may as well own it. Flat black also hides an awful lot of sins in the unevenness department.
BTW, kjkcolorado, thanks for the info I discussed it with the scouts and I think the Pawnee site would make a better camp out so we are going to plan on bringing them to the May 31st / June 2nd event.
