Within John Duncan's site is a Saturn V accurizing tutorial that he gave at an IPMS Nationals seminar a few years ago. This is very informative -

Also if you want to go bigger Sheri's Hot rockets has a 1:48 scale Sat. V - http://www.cjsaviation.com/

Dahut,

If you want to build an accurate SatV, get the Realspace conversion and decals from Space Model Systems.

For the money you'll have to spend on the Revell kit plus extras from New Ware and RealSpace, you'll be into it for well over $200.

For that kind of money, have a look at the Apogee Rockets 1/70 Saturn V: www.apogeerockets.com

It's extremely accurate, but it's designed for flying.  So there won't be any interstage engine detail or removable BPC/LES.  That stuff could probably be scratchbuilt though, and in the end you'll have spent about as much and have a big honkin' Saturn V.

For aftermarket, detail, decals, and resin kits, try this site:

The old Estes/Centuri Saturn V kit was surprisingly detailed as well, and you can actually FLY it. 

Hay Thanks JMart,  I did some hard searching on google, and found a online store called HobbyTron that has it for 84.99.  The main reason why I'm interested in this is just from the fact of its size.  It'll take me another day or two, to make up my mind of which way I wan't to go. But thanks again JMart.

Revell (of Germany) re-released their venerable old 1/96 Sat V. Not cheap (~100$USD), but I rather pick it up new than off someone in ebay. kit # REV04805

There is an old version that was smaller, 1/144, 1/200?? you cn find that one cheaper..

the good folks in here will probably give you much better answer than me :)
