New Aerotech Builds




The Wac Corporal paint will have to wait - 
Every time I'd go out to spray around 2:30 p.m. there was rain!
That and allowing 48 hours between fully dried, sandable undercoats.

This arrived today - 
Two BIG boxes. 




Where there is multiples, 
One will be show grade, the others will be for flight.

The show builds have filled tube and nose cone seams.
More time goes into the show builds.

Flight models aren't quite so detailed.


In the second smaller box were five Initiator kits. 
Two of these will be show models, three are built to be flown.
The last Grunt build is show.

How did I get a job building for vendors? I asked if they needed some finished models. Build coverage on the blog also helped get my name out there. 

I'll start on the Initiators tomorrow.

    1. Hi Bill,
      Let's hope so! I don't usually build MPR rockets, let alone this many multiples like with the Initiator.

    1. Hi Ed,
      It's not too bad. I am building five of the Initiators now, sort of an assembly line process.
