Finally got this project finished ... It's been sitting around now for quite a while ... The name is from the 80's band Madness, who sung a song called 'Love Struck'. Here's some specs :
Airframe : 2.15" PML Phenolic
Nosecone : PML 2.15" Nosecone
Length : 68.3mm
Motor Mount : 29mm
Fins : Taken from the Lil Nuke LOC kit .... Aircraft Ply
Retainment : Should be a custom made standard Rowes.
It's basically a Lil Nuke, just a tad shorter and stronger. To finish it, I used 4 coats of Halfords Flat White Primer, with the usual sanding ...
Found the colour I wanted in Halfords' colour chart book (It was found on a Land Rover!), they mixed me the paint and I put on 5 Coats of that on. To finish off the already glass like finish, I put on 5 coats of Clear Lacquer.
Anyway, Pic time!
