- Now that the Humber is practically finished, it's time for a new (little) project. This is the build of the 51 yr old kit from Revell, with simple mods from plastic card and filler but no aftermarket. In part one we look at assembling the F.1 engines correctly, making the insides look better and improving the CSM.
A great beginners video for dealing with seam removal.
This is for full build amazing build great tutorials 💪💪💞💞🍺🍺👍👍🐕🐕
Glad you like it
I'm the only 18 year old in a sea of retirees and I love it
I don’t know why this kit always scared me but I just ordered it and I will give it a try. It’s time this 52 year old faced his fears!
when you recieved this model think positive I'm sure you will do fine
I built one over 30 years ago as a young teenager. It was in the era of the Space shuttle and the dreams of space travel that that presented to the 80s generation..
I was thinking of building this model over a week after work...after watching this I think more like a month or two!
A stunning build and you should be proud of your work, I hope your breathlessness improves mate.
Excellent stuff Nigel, perfect for someone who hasn't made a kit for over 30 years! And believe it or not i just purchased this kitset 3 days ago after watching the Apollo 11 Doco a week ago. I'm looking forward to rest of your series. Thanks so much.
Nigel i like how your making a masterpiece out of a dog of a kit.....thats real modelling skill......
I built this kit shortly after it was released and wish I had thought of the plastic card to improve the look of the engines. Oh well, it was relegated to the trash bin many years ago now. Great video as usual. Keep it up Nigel.
Trash bin? No,no,no! The real fun was burning or blowing them up. Kids., you know.
Great idea on the bells of the F1 engines
I had one almost like this one, the one I had used solid rockets and it flew with parachutes to recover it, lots of fun, back in the late 60's.
A Flexi-file wirks really good with those types of curves on the Service module.
Very interesting videos have learned a lot as I am building this model as well
What the...!?! No one said anything about math! Pi? Circumference? Degrees? I just wanted to build a model, not fly the damn thing to the moon. Thanks a lot Nigel von Braun! I’m joking of course. Great vid as always.
Looking to be like the Monty car, not great quality BUT given some work will look great.Enjoy the Modding parts on your vids,always learn something from them.
I once built an air fix saturn 5 model a long time ago
Nigel you can probably replace the engine bell ribbing with thin gauge wire. that way you can fill the seams on the outside of the bell and use the wire to recreate the ribbing.
Fantastic
There is an actual saturn 5 rocket motor in the science museum in london
They are called Vernier nozzels. And you can recreate those with stretched sprue.
"I would normally wash my parts in soapy water." TMI Nige...
Proof of why the Apollo & Saturn V program was so expensive - too much fettling ;) :D
Nigel, in one of your episodes here you had trouble with Vallejo paint not drying. I have discovered this myself. How did you get the goopy stuff off you model?
As a newbie I am enjoying the tutorial. When are you building the 1:96? It would be a good group build.
Not in the near future I'm afraid.
@@NigelsModellingBench yes, that is a big commitment.
Nigal question l understand what your doing with the card but if your going to paint the inside of the booster any way would not get the same resolt with smooth painting?
Hi Nigel!! Do we need to wash the particulat before use it?
Well, normally I would say yes.. but on this occasion you will be handling the parts so much that it's best to degrease the parts once assembled before painting.
How many are looking inside the thrusters? I have this kit.
looks like too much sanding and filling for me. Ive never been a fan of older kits, I haven't got the patience.
This modell is level 4 but its realy easy
