Der Saturn Max
Der Saturn Max ...
From an alternate universe, where Germany won the war, and Werner Von Braun’s crazy twin designed Germany’s moon rocket ... This model of the infamous DSM sits, awaiting transportation to Pueblo, Colorado for liftoff at NARAM-2018 in August. Special DSM vinyl by Mark Hayes at Stickershock.

Neat !
I don't think I could do that to a Saturn V kit though. Maybe from one that pranged though....

I’m usually turned off by scale models that are modified, and painted in different colors. But this was so over the top I was like a madman sketching ideas. What made it an easy decision was that this was a damaged, ratty looking old Saturn. It’s loaded with spot putty and filler-primer. And it was missing parts. I couldn’t do this to a new kit... well, maybe I could. Heck, I’ve stocked up on them over the years. And Estes apparently has the Saturn V kit listed in the new catalog.
