Here's the link about how to do the scan.....

http://www.oldrocketplans.com/sendscans.htm

Jimz site has some decals posted but none with some kind of scale next to them. If you can scan what you have and include a scale (ruler or piece of paper with one inch mark) that would be great.

If the scan doesn't exceed the post limit for attachment size (I think it's 422k), you can just save it as an attachment to a post here. Otherwise, just send it to Scott at whatever his email is. I'll let him post it since it soes it with the dot and ampersign thingy way he does like dot at udmh or scott at oldrocketplans dot com.

Definitely yes. Old decals tend to fall apart even if they look good.

The Athena had some Vac-U-Formed Raparond I have the parts less a piece of the tubing where the engine katoed. the model was painted gray but all is there but motor mount and about 4" of tubing. so if there is still some info you need I might be able to get it from the pieaces left
Let me know I might even have extra raps

Here you go.
Finally wrestled the camera away. Hope you like!
I kinda cheated, in that I printed off a set of red decals and a set of black ones and used some of both.
My thanks to Timorley for the wonderful decals you posted here. They worked quite nicely!

I only see one item that needs changing.
The nose cone is supposed to be silver on the Enerjet original....a small item, but worth pointing out.

Very excellent build. It looks great. I hope to build one someday soon, if I can find some wraps. Thanks for posting all the photos.
