Thanks! When I get home I'll email the full-sized pictures if you want. I'm on the road now and don't have my full email address book with me.
I've got the Nike Smoke 2 done, just have to finish painting it and then put the decals on. Picture coming soon!

I finished up a few more rockets in the last couple of days. Here are some pictures.
Semroc - Thunder Bee - A simple mini-engine rocket that's the beginning of a line of rockets. This one wasn't much of a challenge to build except for the size of the parts! it turned out great, though. New Way Space Models - Nike Smoke 2 - This is another of those great square-tubed rockets. This one was similar to the other two I've built. I did make one minor modification and cut a piece of the launch lug off and glued it to the tip of the nosecone as mentioned in a review on EMRR. Scratch - Skybreaker II - this is a roughly 2x upscale of the Sunward Skybender, one of my favorite rockets. I had it built before but it core-sampled and pretty much everything was destroyed except the fin can and the nosecone. They have been resurrected and she's ready to fly again!

Newly completed rockets. I have a table full of built-but-not-finished rockets. It's been windy and very
wet here in San Antonio (no complaints - we need the rain!) so I've gotten a bunch built but not painted or primered. Centuri : Laser Lance - A nice and easy build. Centuri : Laser Lance - A 1.68x upscale. Easy build and excellent nosecone and decals from Sandman Fliskits : Deuce's Wild - Another easy build except the fins aren't laser cut. New Way Space Models : Q-bee - Another easy and fun square rocket Semroc : Moon Glo - An easy build with an odd nosecone. Now to find a good color scheme... New Way Space Models : Mark 4 - Another easy square rocket New Way Space Models : Lune R-4 - Another easy square rocket New Way Space Models : Quadzilla - Finally finished with decals. Easy and tall! I'm still working on getting my Draconian Marauder parts upscsaled. I have all the parts except the nosecone, but I need to get those fiber parts cut out.

Well, let's see.... I'm working on a Semroc Aerobee 300 and a Fliskits ACME Spitfire. I'm not looking forward to sanding the fins and conduits on the Aerobee and I think I've messed up the Spitfire. The third tube ring doesn't want to fit correctly. I also have my Draconian Marauder and the 2.51x upscale. Plus I have a whole bunch of kits I got from Sandman, including his 4x24mm Nike Hercules. And I have a bunch of other kits on the shelf. I'm going to try to get to my two Dynastar Snarky models after I finish the Marauders. I'm going to be doing one in USAF Thunderbirds colors, and the other in USN Blue Angels colors. Those will be *way cool* when finished.

Recently completed a couple of models...
First is the upscale Ram Jet. Decals by Sandman. Looks good from 10' away  Second (and third) is the original Centuri Laser Lance and the 1.68x upscale. Nosecone and decals by Sandman. The upscale had some paint issues but it also looks good from a distance. The original stickers are peeling, so I'll probably replace them with the decals Gordy sent me. All three should see the air this coming weekend at the monthly Alamo Rocketeers launch. I really hope we have good weather since I haven't been in town for a regular launch for a really long time. I have a bunch of models that still need to fly their maiden flights! Now I need to get started on my Draconian Marauder and the upscale.

Nice builds, all. The Ram-Jet is a design that's starting to pique my curiousity. Let us know how you make out with them at the launch. Photos if possible.
