Decals for a model rocket boost glider. It's a canard boost glider with an in-jokey name. Being a Generation Jones child of the '60s-'70s sort of shows through in this, especially the Pony Car era and how it was even sold to us kids who weren't old enough to drive...

Working up sketches for a decal mascot for a boost glider named the Odd Duck. It's called that because it's not like my other A3-A10 sized gliders that I've designed. This is also a bit of a nostalgic throwback to my Timber Ridge magazine days. Too bad that didn't work out.

The finished version of the "Fugly Bugly" and the decal set for the Gammie. It's probably the ugliest thing that I ever drew. And it's so ludicrously ugly that I'm cracking myself up.

Update: Fugly Bugly is fugly... And getting fuglier with each "inked" detail... And it's hilarious....

Work in Progress: a mascot for a decal for a boost glider. Radiation worker in-joke: a gammie is like a zoomie but bigger, slower, less vicious, and possibly dumber....

My retro Centuri Swift clone with NASA decals to go with the retro Flat Cat clone with USAF decals. I just could not get this thing to transition and glide. It just wants to dive.

I was driving up I-29 having an imaginary conversation with Grandpa Skow and came up with this bit of mock philosophy. Then there was me tripping over these forgotten archeological artifacts from a previous life with the case so yellowed with age that it's scary.

Celandine at 18. The joys and having two attractive athletic parents with the quirky bonus of getting all those muscles from mama....
I'm back working on this trying to finish up the inks. I redid the hair and arms tonight. Is there anything anybody would fix before I start coloring it?

Work in progress: a retro cartoon mascot for a model rocket called "The Cammer". I was kind of nostalgic for the late '60s and early '70s when Kar Kulture was sold to us kiddies who could only daydream about being old enough to drive with things like CARtoons, Hot Wheels, Schwinn Stingray, etc...

The Klingberg Rocket Wing flies again 30 years later. It doesn't go up very high but it likes taking its time coming back down. Also a variant of the Gassaway Omni-Pad.

I'm building clones of the Estes and Centuri V2 kits and realizing that I miss John Carroll, my best model rocket buddy, former Estes employee, rebooted the Omaha Hobbytown franchise, Holverson Designs co-conspirator, co-founder of ORC which became part of THOR, and Peenemunde buff.

My retro '60s-'70s Flat Cat with retro USAF decals. It's even built from the original plans in American Modeler instead of the MPC or Quest version. Ironically there's a lot of 21st century in that retro with CAD transcription and laser cutting, laser printed decals, and 3D printed engine adapter.

And the stupid propeller fell off...
At least it's the factory plastic and not my 3D printing that failed....
