Apollo Saturn V
Jeff writes: It is an Airfix kit with some
modifications. I removed the patterns on the S-II. Cut down the heat shield
on the S-II thrust structure. Added helium tanks and a start tank to the
S-IVB thrust structure which I made from epoxy resin. Also added start
tanks
to the J-2's on the S-II. (I'm thinking of adding more detail to the thrust
structure of this stage, wiring etc...) I also added RealSpace models
Apollo
conversion in which the SM was covered with matte aluminum BMF. The F-1
engines were covered with matte aluminum foil (unfortunately hidden in
these
pics). I used the base from the Revell kit as it is pretty sturdy. And
that's about it!!
