Default "Hybrid" capsule for LJII

A few weeks ago I mentioned I was going to do a thread on a Semroc 1/70 LJII with a "hybridized" capsule and LES. I've done this once before and it was quite successful, so I can probably do this again and post a decent thread.

Since this build will represent round A-001 with the BP-12 spacecraft--and not an operational Apollo spacecraft--I'm combining the balsa and paper wrapped capsule of the Semroc LJII kit with the plastic LES scaffold, nozzles, skirt, small cone, and the paper BT of the Apogee Apollo capsule kit.

The two main components are assembled. To join the two assemblies I'll insert (4) small Plastruct tubes into the balsa NC to accept the leg tips of the LES scaffold. TBC
