Default Excelsior Rocketry Web Site Updated.

Not a lot but at least a start.

I've also started putting pics of some of the decals on the site. I may try to go with thumbnails and let you click on them for a larger image.

Sorry this took so long but I had to make up the decal artwork before I could post them.

I will be putting my Roachwerks kit on the site also but that will just take more time.

Guys, I really could use some feedback on the site.

I've added pics all day today in the "classic waterslide decals".

I pretty much finished the Centuri section and have a good start on the Estes section.

Looks great. I sent some FSI Mach-1 Dart pictures of my finished model when Phred was looking for builders to test them. Phred asked for pictures of the finished build but never got around to using them on the site.

If you want pictures of the completed & decaled FSI Mach-1 Dart I built with Semroc parts that was finished with Excelsior decals for your FSI page just let me know.

Great addition!

It was a pain to jump from either NinFinger or JimZ to see what the decals were vs the title. Thanks for putting in the time to include the pix of the decals!

Time is right!

Even with high speed internet the worse is waiting for things to upload!

OK maybe redrawing decals so you can see the white is also a pain!

Yes, Steve, I do want those pics but let me get throught this first.

I have Centuri pretty much finished but I'm only up to the "D's" in the Estes section.

Yes, Phred left a lot "undone".

BTW, did anybod notice that I have all of the Centuri Super Kit finished?

Thumbs up Thumbs up!

I like the addition of the thumbnails. Makes it easy to see what decals might make good "kitbashing" opportunities!

I had to make some special order stuff today so I just put them on the web site.

I have a long way to go yet!

Thanks for your help creating the decals for me this morning. You are doing a great job getting the site updated.

I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to you but I think you first contacted me right after I purchased Excelsior (at least i think that was you).

At that time I was up to my armpits in stuff. I have since mastered Corel and I can crank out new decal files a lot faster.

I keep adding more pics to the site daily but it is tedious.

I'm also adding more decals daily also so guys, keep checking.

I just added the Colonial Viper decal set last night. I'm working on an upscale decal set of it today.

How about a 137% upscale of the Colonial Viper.

The main body tube is a BT-56 13" long and the turbo tubes are the new BT-58 (1.54" O.D.) from SEMROC?

I can easily make the nose cone but not a kit, just a planset.

I'm too busy to do any kits right now.
