Red Columbine: A Rocket Based On A Flower.
Here in the Colorado mountains, we have some really cool looking flowers. Being a hiker and a BAR, I find myself on hikes thinking "That would make a cool upscale rocket".

The spheres at the end of the petals were turned on my wood lathe from a piece of 2 x 2 pine.

The spheres have a counterbore which allows the petals to set into them. Then wood glue is used to fill up the counterbores.
