Quest Courier #Q2011 Build, Part 5, Paint & Sticker Décor





Once in a while it's nice to build a rocket that doesn't require any masking!

This picture was taken after the first coat of gloss white. Some light sanding with 400 grit followed. A final heavier coat of gloss white followed.

This kit includes large peel and stick fin coverings. Three fins and six fin coverings, one for each side.

The root edges were cut close to fit into the glue fillet area. 

Note the even spacing at the leading and trailing edges.
The white area at the outside edge is wider like the middle areas of the  black and blue bands.

There are two model name stickers. One reads up, the opposite sticker reads going down.

Mark the center point of the sticker and the center of the body tube between the top edge of the fins and the top of the body tube. Match up the pencil lines and your name sticker is at the center of the tube.
