Yup...I have full skin kits for wrapping virtually all exterior surfaces (except for the corrugated wraps). Been a few "bumps" along the way. Just as I released the "kit I thought folks would want" back in May I ran into a supplier problem...then got an assignment to do cleaning and repairs on the Saturn V at Kennedy Space Center...which got extended three times and left me being unable to do much about the new Saturn IB skin kits for almost a month.
Right after I released the initial kit, I was asked by virtually all of the buyers if I was going to release skins "for the rest of the kit." My original kit had the eight SIB tank skins and the SM...which I thought was adequate. Surprise, NOT. So, the original kit grew to the full End-to-End kit which consists of...
All items are SA-205/Apollo 7 specific
1. LES Motor skin
2. BPC glossy printed replacement for Semroc CM item
3. SLA glossy printed replacement for Semroc SLA. Includes reinforcing "under cone"
4. IU skin (with Apollo 7 antenna placements)
5. SIV-B tank skin
6. Eight SIB tank skin
7. Thrust Structure skin (roll patterns, hatches, etc)
8. Fin skins
For the most part, instructions are printed right on the skins. There is a supplemental printed instruction sheet. It is assumed that you have Skill Level 4 abilities. I also happily respond to emails if you need help. Don't be afraid to ask questions! Better to ask FIRST what you need to know than to ask LAST for help on something you should have asked about first! For my part, it's easier to tell you how to do it right than to back you out of a mistake...
