Very nice; I remember having the styrene kit that included those ages ago.

Would be cool (although less colorful) to see a recolor using the white and black of current or Shuttle-era TPS technology.

Nice little model - came out well, as many of the Fiddlers Green models do.

Did you reduce it?

Yes, my model is at 1/200 scale.
I think the original is about 1/40!

Always enjoy seeing figures with models to set the relative size of a thing.
