Ton Noteboom's 4 ft. Saturn V (first build)

[rentacow]

I've been working on this for the past few days. This is essentially my first paper model. It's a little rough but I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. I had allot of fun putting it together and the hours of entertainment only cost me a few cents worth of black toner (I don't have a color printer :p) a few sheets of paper, cardstock and glue. I built the first stage first and every section I built afterwards turned out a little bit neater than the last as I got better at putting the pieces together. All in all, an interesting introduction to the hobby and a good learning experience. Ok here are the photos:

Nicely done. Glad you enjoy it.

Welcome aboard, and nice job!

Certainly not the easiest model to begin with. I admire your ambition.

I hope you enjoy yourself around here and continue modeling.

Well done! As said, Ton's may not the easiest models to make but the fit and precision are superb - making them great teachers. And, a great display when you're done.

Welcome to PM DOT COM. You did a great job there, this was one of my first models i built a long while ago and enjoyed every minute of it - i still have it Yeah... the choice is sooooo vast it's hard to choose, but if you have a bug for space items, there's plenty of great models - The Space shuttle is always a great build, and our YOGI developed some payloads for the variants... great guy, great models. Tis FUN
