This project is a transformation o' t' Estes "Magician" into a custom rocket called t' Boogie Bee. T' Magician had a hard landin' and t' tip o' t' body tube was slightly damaged. Initially I planed t' just repair t' rocket but after cuttin' away t' damaged portion I decided t' repaint t' rocket and give it a new look. Avast!




I refinished t' body with Createx auto-air yellow. T' auto-air paint has a nice finish and since its a water base thar be really very little fumes.




T' nose cone and transition have been re-painted black, also usin' t' auto-air paint. Ahoy! Since both o' these parts are glued into t' clear payload section rather than try t' separate t' parts, I left t' silver as is. Arrr! T' silver should go with t' rockets new look pretty well.




At t' College Stadium store in t' Mall I picked up a Georgia Tech Bee and Printed t' new Boogie Bee name out onto Testors waterslide clear decal paper.




This is just about finished, I just need t' clear coat t' whole rocket and it will be ready t' fly. Avast, me proud beauty! T' two black rings are made out o' contact paper. Aye aye!
