Don't thank me yet, I hope you are able reproduce the results in your own build I am making improvements to the design as I work, so maybe it will be build-able when I'm done.
I regret not using some inside formers in the wings. I actually just cut some strips and inserted them into the top tailfin to help both keep it's shape and give me something to glue to the rocket body. I also added some strips to the smaller fins to help me keep them in place when I attach them as well.
Here you can also see I assembled the connecting, undercarriage "wing" too.
Finally you can see the top runner and fin piece attached to the rocket body.
I still have to cut and assemble the lower center strut fin and the pods for the ends of the wings. Then the construction will be done, and I'll have figure out what kind of finish to apply to it.
