Default Scans of 2155 Super Nova Payloader?

Scott (and anyone else),

I just bought a Super Nova Payloader off of eBay with the intent to build it. I see that the instructions, the front of the box and the decals (stickers) are on Ye Olde Rocket Plans, but that patterns are shown as needed. Since the model has plastic fins and such, what exactly would you want me to try to scan/photograph before I build this thing?

The fin can is unique in my experience with a push-n-twist motor retainer I’ve not seen anywhere else, and there is a joiner between the two BT-60 body tubes that is reminiscent of the Enerjet 1340 unit in that there’s a small band of body-diameter plastic between the two tubes. In this case it also holds the upper launch lug.

Anyway, what would make sense to document before I start gluing stuff together?
