Looks pretty good altogether. Still need to do
1. The shape of the nosecone doesn’t look quite right.
2. Some of the coloring bled a little. Need to add color backing on the inside.
3. Verify the position of the solar panel containers.

Lots of detail added to the Skylab OWS. Does anyone know if the solar arrays should be 180 degrees apart? Mine are 160 right now based on observations but doesn’t seem right.

If you haven't noticed (I'm sure few of you have), I'm going to start regularly posting updates and challenges as I work to develop more scale model rockets with CAD and then 3d printed. If that interests you, please follow.

Testing out the white color. With rockets we want to make them as thin as possible but if the inside is black and the outside is white the result is a light grey look. The second print here has a thicker hull which makes is more white but still not good enough. I'm you g to have to paint the inside walls as well. Normally more weight is bad but this rocket needs nose weight so adding weight here is actually an advantage.

I realized that part of the black area is actually the fairing adapter. Redesigned and test printed the fairing. This is pretty close to final.

Failure to print the white core stage sections of the Saturn V. Its hard to tell but it looks like when the print file uploaded to the printer it lost a section in the middle. This resulted in the print skipping in the middle and then spaghetti.

Skylab payload fairing looking great. I added some fain details for the seams and other parts to match the real one.

Demand for the Saturn V Model Rocket Kits has been stronger than we expected. We’ve already doubled our production capacity to keep up with orders, but even with the extra capacity, kits will still take about a week or two to ship as we work through the current backlog. 😱

If you’ve been waiting or are still deciding, TONIGHT is the last day to lock in the lower price.

Pre-launch pricing ends tomorrow. After that, the price will go up to the normal price of $149.95.
