Note to self: Didn’t do a great job sanding, filling, or priming? Paint the rocket white. It’s like magic. Poof! Imperfections disappear.
I am cheap. Cheapness is the mother of invention. . See my post about getting three dozen cans of spray paint from the city “hazmat recycling” facility. Free. Free is good.I like your painting stand.
Very ingenious.
Base coat of white paint applied to Aztec. Waiting for it to dry overnight. Model rocket construction = have fun discussions with your rocket buddiesin TRF while waiting for stuff to dry.

If you were going for altitude, you’d ditch the lug and go with a tower. Embrace the Mega Lug. Incorporate it into the paint scheme! A sensor array? An escape pod? A Hyperpace Injection Port?
Red paint spayed onto the fins and nose cone. Just waiting for it to dry completely so I can pull off the masking tape. Hmm. I kind of like the cherry red color from the 20 year old can of Krylon. Maybe I should paint the whole thing red? I don’t have a monochrome rocket.
