Part shot; with 2 decal sheets (cool), a seperate paint and decal insert (nice), and, of course, the way cool nose cone (and tail cone)! :

 
24mm engine mount finished.
Baffle finished w 200# Kevlar line.

 
3/8 inch elastic - 2.5 times body length. This is where the baffle was glued into body tube.

 
Used a long stick to put glue inside the body tube for baffle.

 
Used automotive filler primer to fill grains in balsa (Thick coats!)

 
Double-glue method used w good 'ol Elmer's Glue-All. Eye-balled fins on directly.

 
Cut the body tubes w surgical scissors - worked OK.

 
Intakes went on well. White glue joints.

 
Mostly finished. Had to rebuild a side engine tube - used a BT-55 (what's a 1090 tube anyway?!)

 
Finished this rocket pretty quickly - and it shows! :P
Used a gold and white paint scheme.
Weighs 4.62 oz (131 g) - No engine or chute.

 
Had a hard time w decals.
The decals were big and needed about a minute soaking in warm water to loosen them off the backing.
Forgot to use a drop of soap too.
