So after a long break on this project (been focusing on a new 3D printer), things have started moving rely quick and i am now aiming for a launch in 2 weeks (16/17th sept), so lots of photos to follow.
Firstly, the four side boosters have now been assembled, the transitions glued in place and the card stock painted in CA as with the previous transitions, slots have been cut for the mounting hooks to the main booster and reinforced with more card stock. The boosters surface was then filled and sanded to smooth out all the seams and any other blemishes, the tiny fins have been added in balsa, and then they have all been primed, sanded and reprimed ready for the actual paint.
