hi progress has now taken a bit of a crash ,main support for boosters etc. is not strong enough ,going by instructions ive had too put hooks into model
too support main tank in turn paint has been affected have taken a step back to work out another path deeply frustrated near trashed model .these small

parts holding a heavy model main tank shuttle ?

( top right booster paint damage ,hooks too hold main body together from distance looks ok ,cotton hold top assembly together a bit

cackhanded best I could come up with the doesn't even take into account when shuttle gets attached one big headache

Nice improvisation though James to sort the support problem. Looks really great with the solid rocket plumes, I am sure you will come up with a better system, models are a joy at times aren't they?
