Never can you go wrong with shark teeth on your rocket!

Got a day near 60 F today so I shot some clear gloss on the rocket so I can attach decals.

Applying The Decals

This the first time I've used Micro Mark White Decal Paper for decals. I like it! It makes the colors more vivid and for things like the eyes on this rocket, it eliminates the need to paint the rocket white in the location the decal will be applied.

I still need to paint the yellow stripes on the wings and tail...

That would be a viable candidate to submit to Apogee for whatever their design of the month club thing. Except you’d have to adapt it for a commercially available nose cone.

It’s almost a Goonie! I love Goonies.

Not sure there is a commercial nose cone that "wood" fit the "bill".... Short - fat & pointed like a prop cover for a WWII war bird.

And if there was, it would need a huge chunk of clay or something similar as ballast.

Agreed on the Goony vibe.
