This kit has Mercury Redstone, Mercury Atlas, Gemini Titan, Saturn IB, and Saturn V in 1:200 scale.While this isn't the highest quality kit I'd still like to do a decent job on it. Can anyone direct me to some online sources for paint diagrams of these rockets? Photos are okay but the only show one side and color can vary over time. I'd really like to see diagrams which show the color accurately. Thanks!</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#494949"><TD valign=top>the clocks running</TD><TD>My Airfix Saturn V kit came with a color reference.
