Estes Black Brant XII, Kit # 9723 Build, Finished

I didn't get a full length picture of the finished model. I tried, but it is simply too tall! 

You can see the finished look on the kit box or on the Estes website.

The first and second stage fins.

The first stage fins are thick!

Lots of color on this one - it takes a while to paint everything waiting for the different paints to dry.

No decal markings. There is an Estes logo decal included in the kit parts.

The third stage fins and adapter.

Notice the tunnel end overlapping onto the plastic fin can.

This was a "flight" version. 

The two show builds will have the upper ring painted brown.

The third stage with the silver and black paint. Notice the top of the hatches overhanging onto the silver paint areas.

This is an impressive model and a good challenge to build.

I hope this blog build helps with any questions.

There might be a break in blog posts, until I get another vendor build.
