15" for the missile, 17" for Jupiter C and Merc at 19.67" on a 2" diameter body (1/35 scale). Note that if your Jupiter C cone includes a section of cylinder you need to subtract that length from the 17".

Looks like graphics will be easy only marks I see on photos are the black roll pattern, the vertical stripe on the "tub" booster under explorer, black diaganol on top and the UE designator.
