Default Maxi Alpha 3 Finished

Finished up the Estes Maxi Alpha 3. I could have done it in one night but nope, just HAD to fill the spirals and do all the paint work. Krylon gloss white and banner red.

Oh yeah! That looks very sharp. Stunning paint job! What did you use to fill the grain?

Thanks Mojo! I used Elmer's wood filler on the spirals.

If you got gonna build it, do it right! Of course, then the odds of losing or crashing go up exponentially ...

Looks great!
