Brief:
My entry for t' EMRR's Uniquely Designed Finish Contest be t' Sunward Maverick. Ahoy! Ya scallywag! This design was inspired by NASCAR's #9 Kasey Kahne. Begad! Kahne is sponsored by Dodge and me son's favorite driver.

Construction and Finishing:
I modified t' design slightly by fillin' t' wing-tube interface t' make t' rocket look more realistic. Avast! T' wings were filled and sanded until completely smooth. Ahoy! Begad! T' card stock used t' form t' jet engine intakes was also filled and sanded smooth. Avast, me proud beauty! This was done t' make t' rocket look more authentic. Well, blow me down! When t' fillin' and sandin' cycles were complete a coat o' primer be added. Avast! T' primer was then sanded smooth. Aye aye! Begad! T' base coat o' gloss white was then applied. After maskin' all t' detail areas red was added. Ya scallywag! Next, me bucko, after maskin' all t' details gloss black was applied. Finally, to protect t' finish and graphics a thick clear coat was applied.

[Editor's Note: Although this be submitted as a modification, we believe that all t' changes were merely t' make the rocket look better and are nay really modifications. Avast! Ya scallywag! Great finishin' techniques.]

Flight and Recovery:
T' day o' t' first flight t' weather was cold and little windy (10-15 mph). Even though t' weather was nay the best, me bucko, t' flight was great. Avast, me proud beauty! T' rocket was launched on a C6-3, me hearties, and as it went skyward, me hearties, shiver me timbers, shiver me timbers, it twisted one or two revolutions and looked just like a real jet fighter. Begad! It was awesome! One o' t' attached pictures shows a member o' my expert launch recovery crew who braved t' 20 degree weather. Thanks Abby!

Summary:
So what is unique? This rocket is a prediction o' t' future. There are rumors that Dodge will be extendin' their product line t' jets in t' near future. After all, shiver me timbers, what better place for a Hemi!
