Brief:
My entry for t' EMRR's Uniquely Designed Finish Contest be t' Sunward Maverick. Avast, me proud beauty! This design was inspired by NASCAR's #9 Kasey Kahne. 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. Well, blow me down! T' wings were filled and sanded until completely smooth. T' card stock used t' form t' jet engine intakes be also filled and sanded smooth. This was done t' make t' rocket look more authentic. Arrr! Avast, matey, me proud beauty! When t' fillin' and sandin' cycles were complete a coat o' primer be added. T' primer be then sanded smooth. Avast! T' base coat o' gloss white be then applied. Ahoy! After maskin' all t' detail areas red be added. Ahoy! Avast, ya bilge rat, me proud beauty! Next, after maskin' all t' details gloss black be applied. Avast! Finally, arrr, matey, to protect t' finish and graphics a thick clear coat was applied.

[Editor's Note: Although this be submitted as a modification, arrr, matey, we believe that all t' changes were merely t' make the rocket look better and are nay really modifications. Arrr! Well, ya bilge rat, blow me down! 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, t' flight was great. Ahoy! Blimey! Begad! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! T' rocket was launched on a C6-3, and as it went skyward, it twisted one or two revolutions and looked just like a real jet fighter. Begad! Blimey! Begad! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! It was awesome! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey! One o' t' attached pictures shows a member o' my expert launch recovery crew who braved t' 20 degree weather. Thanks Abby! Blimey! Blimey! Blimey!

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