I filled the three tiny holes because I wasn't going to put the little human figures on the platform.

I cut off the pins on the command module because otherwise it did not fit well on the service module.

Every stage has markings to put the parts together in the right way.

![Album image #23 Album image #23](/albums/img/2/4/6/728246-39399-72-720.jpg)
Remark on the Revell paint scheme : on the real Saturn V there is no black ring connecting the top of the black parts above the engines (first stage). So I did not follow the Revell instruction on this point.

Remark on the Revell decal scheme : the real Saturn V has no USA lettering on the third stage. So I skipped this.
