Estes Gauchito Build #1279 OOP, Part 8, Stickers!



On the left is the die-cut sticker outline. Why not just cut it out on the color edges? You won't notice the clear areas as much.

On the right are the corner tics for a tight border cut.

A strip of paper was wrapped around the body tube for equal placement of the stickers. Below the "I" in the word "PRIZE" is a penciled center line. An "X" sticker like this is also on the opposite side.

The paper strip was used again, raised up for the Angentina flag.



There was an additional sticker with the recommended engines. Some might put it on the outside surface but I hid mine inside the body tube.








A longer elastic shock cord was added.
The parachute was tied to a snap swivel. The snap swivel was attached about 1/3 the way down from the nose cone to prevent parachute shroud line tangles.
