I figured the rocket looks mostly like a Baby Bertha, or at least what a Baby Bertha would have looked like before it was actually born much later. This was probably a genetic thought experiment as to how to hybridize a Ranger with a Bertha to make a smaller offshoot.

So, since we've all built Rangers, Big Bertha's, or Baby Bertha's, no build photos. Except for the decals.

I can't print white decals. But I can print black on white decal paper.

So, I started by drawing a Baby Bertha-inspired decal, surrounding the actual decal element with black.

Then, I cut out around the black, not really caring if white showed or not. Because, I know that cutting through the white decal stock will leave a tiny line of white showing. And, I was planning to hide that tiny line of white, even if it was more visible.

Oh, and the baby not-Baby Bertha was painted white, just so as to have a villain and a hero pair. Like on Westworld.
