Thanks everyone! I agree Lyle the weather has been hot, did get a break from it last night the temp dropped into the 60s and made a nice night at work. Bruce I'll get some photos in the next few days and send them to you.

Too tired today. 5 hours trimming the bushes and finding a bee's nest in the bushes, getting stung once. Later on tonight, a war commenced in ridding the nest with bee spray. Got stung 2 more times trying to get a gist of where the damn nest is. Found it and soaked it to hell. Removed paper nest about 4 inch diameter. I'm done.

That sucks, a lot. Especially with everything else. Hope you are okay.

Great camo on the V-1! Kit? Scale? I've got the Special Hobby 1/32 Fi 103 in my stash. I guess the camo makes a bit of sense since it wasn't fast enough to outrun the faster piston-engined fighters of that time.

Thank you John! It's the Tamiya 1/48 kit it's a grand total of 6 parts two for the body and pulse jet, two wings, the intake and intake housing. Another 6 parts for the cart. I'm going to take more photos tomorrow when I get home.

This build helped me a lot just having built something up so fast and getting it to the display shelf. I'm excited to start on the next project now.
Thanks to all of you here
SKOL!
