Warped! Part 8 Primer and Paint


With the first coat of primer I could see how smooth the joints were.
I was a little surprised, they came out better than I thought they would.
This one took two coats of primer, sanding after each coat.

I had an old can of Rusto 2X, a horrible Key Lime Pie green.
It seemed appropriate for this rocket.

No pics of the fins being glued on. They were stepped, the first fin at the base of the body tube, the other two slightly higher.



The nose cone and one fin were painted gloss black.
You'll see why when the decals are applied.
