Great intro, you've obviously learnt a lot in a short time. I love the colour changing stars, especially the blue to red flashing. Hell of a crack to that lift too! :)

Thanks Bob :) Always means a lot. 

 

I'm looking at reducing my lift percentages after that one! A few of us have come to the conclusion that the aggressive nature of the lift is what disturbed that blue to red shell by possibly distorting it slightly. All the stars were size graded whilst rolling with a colour relay between colours... yet a few still decided to do their own thing! I'm glad you liked the effect though; I was quite pleased with the mottled look of the burst. 

 

Thanks again bud.

 Ammonium Perchlorate based motors :)


Freud. Artists, in this view, are people who may avoid neurosis and perversion by sublimating their impulses in their work.

Exact same principle as the space shuttle solid rockets! They used AP, Alu, Iron oxide and a polymer binder and curing agent.

Not seen that before, the board says you edited it on 29th, but I'm guessing you didn't remove the whole post! :)

 

The forum software doesn't keep post history, but I grabbed it from Google Cache and pasted it back in. I've also tweaked the settings so we can see all four videos inline.
