Odd'l Rockets Little Green Man Prototype Finished!


This was a fun one, a little like the Pigasus in some of the design elements.
It uses the same nose cone, engine mount and body tube as the Pig.
I added a white card stock tooth. It looks much better than the clear area on the water slide decal.
There are many visual levels to this design. The eyes are raised, the white tooth looks raised and the small hands aren't in line with the two front legs.

I didn't show it in the build pics, the pipe cleaner antennas were white glued into the holes drilled earlier.

From some angles the LGM looks a little angry.
Straight on it just looks goofy.








Here's the view from the back, I've yet to add the ray gun on the left side.
The angled out feet will provide base drag and could improve stability.
A 12" Odd'l Rockets parachute rounds out the build.
