Estes Gauchito Build #1279 OOP, Finished






This was a easy standard build with a little history.
Once in a while it's nice to build a simpler model without any frustrating masking.

The big surprise was the Rustoleum Copper spray paint. This paint could be used on a 1950s style sci-fi rocket with good success. This is my first try with the paint . . .

  1. Hi, Chris. Very cool build. I'm very glad to hear that the copper paint from Rustoleum works very well. This paint has been on my radar to be featured very prominently in my current Steampunk Protostar project.

    1. Hi Ed,
      Yep, the copper paint was a nice surprise. After it dried you can't make a fingerprint in it. Some of the mirror-like chrome paints show prints from every time you pick it up!
